Elective amputation and neuroprosthetic limbs
The New Bioethics, 2021This paper explores the impact that developments in the field of neuroprosthetics will have on the ethical viability of healthy limb amputation, specifically in cases of Body Integrity Identity Disorder (BIID). Developments in the field have meant that the prospect of such artificial components matching the utility of their biological counterparts is ...

Neuroprosthetic control and tetraplegia
The Lancet, 20131900 www.thelancet.com Vol 381 June 1, 2013 our report due to space limitations. The patient was thoroughly evaluated before enrolment, including a case review with her treating neurologist (GM) of more than 14 years. The patient fi rst noted stiff ness in her legs at age 36 years, 17 years before enrolment.

The development of increasingly powerful and smaller electronics in the 1960s led to a push in development of portable devices for functional electrical stimulation (FES) for restoration of functions lost due to spinal cord injury (SCI). This chapter aims to provide a compact overview of the most common motor neuroprostheses, including devices for ...

Neuroprosthetic Applications of Electrical Stimulation
Assistive Technology, 2000Neural prostheses are a developing technology that use electrical activation of the nervous system to restore function to individuals with neurological impairment. Neural prostheses function by electrical initiation of action potentials in nerve fibers that carry the signal to an endpoint where chemical neurotransmitters are released, either to affect ...

Neuroprostheses use electric stimuli to stimulate neural structures, muscles, or receptors in order to support, augment, or partly restore the respective disordered or lost function. The objective is to help the patient to participate in everyday life. The use of a neural prosthesis can improve the quality of life of the person concerned. The future of

Robustness of neuroprosthetic decoding algorithms
Biological Cybernetics, 2003We assessed the ability of two algorithms to predict hand kinematics from neural activity as a function of the amount of data used to determine the algorithm parameters. Using chronically implanted intracortical arrays, single- and multineuron discharge was recorded during trained step tracking and slow continuous tracking tasks in macaque monkeys. The

Ethical issues in neuroprosthetics
Journal of Neural Engineering, 2016Neuroprosthetics are artificial devices or systems designed to generate, restore or modulate a range of neurally mediated functions. These include sensorimotor, visual, auditory, cognitive affective and volitional functions that have been impaired or lost from congenital anomalies, traumatic brain injury, infection, amputation or neurodevelopmental and

Micropower Sensors for Neuroprosthetics
2007 IEEE Sensors, 2007We describe two prototype micropower sensors that potentially help enable neuroprosthetics for the treatment of chronic disease. The first sensor is an EEG instrumentation amplifier for the measurement of neurological field potentials in physiologically relevant bandwidths. The second sensor is a three-axis accelerometer for measuring posture, activity,

Introduction to Neuroprosthetics
2011Neuroprosthetics is a comparatively young, dynamically developing subject with double-digit sales growth rates. Due to the preconditions on implantability, biocompatibility, and miniaturization, it is strongly linked to the development of microsystems technology, nanotechnology, information technology, biotechnology, and the application of new ...
