iBCI Optimization for Veterans With Paralysis
This study is testing a mobile neural decoding platform (mobile iBCI) for Veterans who have paralysis due to conditions like spinal cord injury, ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), or stroke. The goal is to make this brain-computer interface more accurate and reliable for independent use at home with computers and mobile devices. Researchers will evaluate how well the mobile iBCI performs in a cursor task. You may be able to join if you are between 18 and 80 years old, have little or no functional use of your arms and legs, and are already participating in the BrainGate clinical trial (NCT00912041). The current status of this study is unclear, and it plans to enroll 2 participants.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study planning to enroll 2 participants. It is evaluating a device called a mobile neural decoding platform (mobile iBCI).
- What's involved
- Participants will be evaluated on their closed-loop performance in an iBCI cursor task through study completion, which averages 1 month.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Participants will be followed through study completion, which averages 1 month, to measure closed-loop performance.
