Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal is to evaluate the potential of a EEG based BCI (Brain-Computer-Interface) connected to a non-invasive pneumatic glove for rehabilitation of hand-movements post-stroke.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Brain computer interfaces (BCI) encompasses the usage of the brain signals to compensate for lost physical function. The current protocol evaluates the therapeutic potential of a EEG based driven BCI that is connected to a non-invasive pneumatic glove for rehabilitation of hand flexion/extension post-stroke. The system non-invasive, portable and low-cost. The utility and usability of the system will be investigated at two levels. First by means of questionnaires for patients and therapist and second by means of in depth analysis of the EEG signals during intended, imagined and passive driven hand movements in relation to no movement at all and the capacity of the BCI to distinguish between these conditions.

Chronic post-stroke

Patients \>6 months post-stroke with little to no hand movement. use of EEG based BCI in the neurorehabilitation process

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

EEG based Brain Computer Interface

Intervention Type DEVICE

Using EEG signals to classify brain activity being 'rest' or 'active' to control the attached pneumatic glove and close the sensory-motor loop between intentional/mental movement and physical (though passive) movement.
