(NINDS),
NIH,
isdeveloping neural prostheses based on functional neuromuscular stimulation
(FNS)
for the restoration ofquadriplegic individuals. The principal goal of the proposed project is to enhance the
utility
of
FNS
systemsfor hand grasp. Specific tasks include: developing and evaluating closed-loop
FNS
systems for hand grasputilizing external force and position integrating
FNS
wrist stabilization,
FNS
elbow control and surgicalprocedures such as tendon transfer and arthrodesis with an
FNS
hand grasp system; developing a biomechanicalmodel of the hand for use
in
evaluating advanced
FNS
systems; and investigating new techniques for programing
''cuJ
f
FNS
systems and for selection of electrode sites.
A
research team with experience
in
neural prostheses,spinal cord rehabilitation, hand surgery, control theory, biomechanics and physiology
