The Effectiveness of Rehabilitation Training Based on Brain-computer Interface Technology to Improve the Upper Limb Motor Function of Ischemic Stroke.
The Effectiveness of Rehabilitation Training Based on Brain-computer Interface Technology to Improve the Upper Limb Motor Function of Ischemic Stroke.
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of rehabilitation training based on brain-computer
 interface in improving the upper motor function, self-care ability in daily life and quality
 of life in patients with ischemic stroke. This study adopts centralized uniform random 1:1
 grouping, subjects will be randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group.
 Randomization schemes are generated by statistical professionals using SAS software.
Brain computer interface(BCI) is a noninvasive nervous system intervention. As a new method,
 it is applied in rehabilitation by stimulating peripheral nerve, such as motor, vibration,
 sensory, in combination with other stimulations, such as transcranial magnetic stimulation,
 transcranial electrical stimulation, etc.

 In traditional rehabilitation therapy, hand-holding training is completed by physical
 therapist. Rehabilitation robot is also used for auxiliary training. BCI therapy will
 stimulate patients to take part in rehabilitation training more actively and obtain better
 effects on the rehabilitation of stroke.
