In the Rehabilitation Institute at Konstancin investigations and clinical tests have been carried out over the last ten years with a view to restoring the tetraplegic hand function by means of implanted stimulation of the peripheral nerves of the upper extremity. Lately, an apparatus for a tetraplegic has been constructed, based on patient controlled stimulation of the median and radial nerves. In this report the principle of the apparatus and also the initial clinical tests are discussed. Investigations carried out so far have demonstrated that grasping function of the hand is compatible with the projected programme and that the induced function of the hand is useful for the patient.
在康斯坦辛康复研究所,过去十年里进行了多项研究和临床试验,旨在通过植入刺激上肢周围神经来恢复四肢瘫痪患者的手部功能。最近,基于患者对正中神经和桡神经的自主控制刺激,为四肢瘫痪患者构建了一种装置。本报告将讨论该装置的原理以及初步临床试验情况。迄今为止所开展的研究表明,手部的抓握功能与预期方案相符,且诱导出的手部功能对患者有益。
