All four participants were able to send out neural signals.
“We carefully conducted this first-in-human study with a primary focus on safety. The patients all tolerated the procedure well and were typically discharged home within 48 hours,” said in the statement Professor Peter Mitchell, Director of Neurointervention at Royal Melbourne Hospital.“The wide-spread availability of the angiography suite for this procedure could promote a rapid translation of brain-computer interface for people with paralysis.
This process is a minimally-invasive endovascular procedure. Once implanted, the device detects and proceeds to wirelessly transmit motor intent.“This technology holds great promise for people with paralysis who want to maintain a level of independence,” said Professor Bruce Campbell, a vascular neurologist from the Royal Melbourne Hospital and the University of Melbourne.
“The Stentrode enables a form of motor restoration, with individuals able to use the switches to communicate and engage with their digital world.” The researchers now hope to provide paralyzed patients with the meaningful restoration of motor capability. “The SWITCH study is an early demonstration of safety in a low number of participants using a commercial grade brain-computer interface. The decoder was simple and robust, meaning that patients didn’t have to train hard-to-execute switches,” concluded Tom Oxley, Synchron CEO and Founder.
