Full Title
Motor Neuroprosthesis to restore motor control for the COMMAND of digital devices: An early feasibility study (EFS) of safety in subjects with severe quadriparesis.
Description
The University at Buffalo (UB) Department of Neurosurgery is conducting a study for people diagnosed with quadriparesis (or the experience of severe muscle weakness affecting the arms and legs). The goal of the study is to test the safety and effectiveness of a new device (the Synchron Motor NeuroProsthesis) for people living with quadriparesis.
