Restoring movement through neurostimulation: objective achieved for Agilis project phase two
The ambition of the team leading the Agilis project is to enable people suffering from tetraplegia to regain their autonomy. This new experimental phase consisted of implanting an innovative stimulation device on the forearm of two volunteer patients for four weeks. Thanks to neural stimulation, this device enabled them to use their hands for everyday gestures. This multidisciplinary project, which aims to have a real impact on the quality of life of patients, has been a success.
