Implanted chips help patients use their own hands

Release date: 2014-06-27

According to foreign media reports, a patient with a high paraplegia of the cervical spine became the first person to move his or her own hands with the help of a brain implant device.

The technology of implanting the brain into the brain has enabled Ian Burkhart to usher the doctor's so-called "bionic era", which will revolutionize the treatment of sputum.

All he has to do is concentrate on moving his hand, and the rest of the work is done in less than a tenth of a second.

The 23-year-old Berkhardt successfully implemented the "neural bridge" test, which doctors say can bring good news to patients with stroke and muscle spasms.

The Ohio State team and the staff of the Battalle R&D company implanted a 0.15-inch chip for the US patient to read the patient's mind.

Information is transmitted to the computer via a cable, which decodes the information and increases the instructions normally generated by the spinal cord. The computer is connected to the compliant electrode on the arm, which stimulates the muscle fibers to cause movement.

Battele's Chad Bouton said: "It's like building a heart bypass, but our bypass is to replace the blood with an electrical signal. We take the signal out of the brain, bypassing the injured area and sending the signal directly to the muscles."

In the test, Berkhardt was able to control his hand and make a fist and fully stretch and grab the spoon. He told reporters that what he missed most was "doing it yourself."

He said: "You have to rely on others so much. It feels good now, although I just do something simple to open the water bottle myself."

He was injured in an accidental spine in 2010.
