Recently, the inaugural brain-computer interface ward in Jiangsu Province officially opened its doors at the Eastern Theater General Hospital. Throughout the ward's development phase, the hospital accomplished its inaugural clinical research procedure utilizing a 'semi-invasive brain-computer interface.' As stated by the head of the hospital's neurosurgery department, this cutting-edge technology is predominantly employed for patients suffering from severe paraplegia resulting from cervical spinal cord injuries at present. Looking ahead, there are intentions to broaden its utilization to encompass a more diverse patient population, including individuals with hemiplegia due to stroke and cerebral hemorrhage, as well as patients with Parkinson's disease, among others.
