Restoring High Dimensional Hand Function to Persons With Chronic High Tetraplegia
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Using the Neuroport cortical recording array to determine the desired grasp pattern for a functional electrical stimulation (FES) system for Spinal Cord Injuries and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 1 participant across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This study is for people who have a paralyzed arm and hand from a spinal cord injury, who have also received a recording electrode array in the brain as part of the BrainGate study. The study will look at the ability of these participants to control different grasping patterns of the hand, both in virtual reality and in his/her actual hand. Movement of the participant's hand is controlled by a functional electrical stimulation (FES) system, which involves small electrodes implanted in the arm, shoulder and hand that use small electrical currents to activate the appropriate muscles.

Timeline
Interventions
Participants will be asked to think about holding different shaped objects, and the recorded cortical signal patterns will be decoded to match those grasp shapes
