Brain-controlled Spinal Cord Stimulation in Participants With Chronic Stroke for Lower and Upper Limb Rehabilitation
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating ARC-BSI Stroke system for Stroke and Hemiplegia. Currently recruiting, targeting 3 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the preliminary safety and effectiveness of using a cortical recording device (ECoG) combined with cervical and lumbar targeted epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the spinal cord to restore voluntary motor functions of upper and lower limbs in participants with chronic stroke suffering from mobility impairment. The goal is to establish a direct bridge between the motor intention of the participant and the spinal cord, which should not only improve or restore voluntary control of arm and leg movement and support immediate mobility, but also promote neurological recovery when combined with neurorehabilitation.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Implantation of a 64 channel - ECoG array over the sensory motor cortex of one side's upper and lower limbs, combined with an implantation of two 16 channel spinal cord stimulation system, one over the cervical region and one over the lumbar region. The decoded motor intentions are driving the implanted spinal cord stimulation system. Brain-controlled spinal cord stimulation is used for training and rehabilitation to recover voluntary movements.
