Can brain-computer interface promote affected upper limb movements of stroke patients?

Brain-computer interface (BCI) systems enable the brain to control limb movement on the side with impaired nerve conduction, showing great potential for promoting functional recovery.

Rehabilitation with brain-computer interface and upper limb motor function in ischemic stroke: A randomized controlled trialWang et al.MedApril 19, 2024In BriefThis randomized controlled trial showed that BCI rehabilitation training can further improve upper limb motor function based on traditional rehabilitation training in patients with ischemic stroke. The results suggested that BCI rehabilitation has great promise in motor functional rehabilitation for patients with stroke. Full-Text PDF
