Wireless brain implant for tetraplegia
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a new implantable brain-computer interface designed to help people with tetraplegia (paralysis of arms and legs) control devices using their thoughts. It may help improve independence and quality of life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You have tetraplegia (paralysis of all four limbs) from a spinal cord injury at levels C2 to C5.
- Your condition has been stable for at least 6 months after completing standard treatment.
- You do not have any conditions that would make surgery risky (e.g., active infection, bleeding disorder, pregnancy).
- You are not currently participating in another clinical trial.

This study tests a wireless brain-computer implant that may help people with severe paralysis or limb loss regain some arm and hand movement. The implant is placed in the brain to pick up signals and send them to a computer or device.
This clinical trial tests a brain-computer interface (a small device implanted in the brain) that may help people with severe paralysis control external devices like a computer or tablet using only their thoughts. The study is for adults with paralysis from a spinal cord injury or ALS, and requires a stable caregiver.
This trial tests a brain-computer interface (BCI) that is implanted by a robot. It is designed to help people who have lost the ability to speak clearly or use their hands well, due to conditions like ALS, stroke, or spinal cord injury.
This trial tests a brain implant that lets you control external devices using your thoughts. It's for people with limited arm function due to spinal cord injury, stroke, ALS, or similar conditions.
This study tests a brain implant that lets you control external devices like a computer or tablet just by thinking. It is for people with paralysis or severe weakness in both arms due to conditions like spinal cord injury, ALS, or stroke.
This trial tests a brain-computer interface (a device that lets you control a computer with your thoughts) that is implanted by a robot. It is for people with severe paralysis who may benefit from a new way to communicate or control devices.
