电刺激瘫痪肌肉的神经假体可以增强脊髓损伤和中风患者的功能，例如站立和迈步、伸手和抓握以及膀胱和肠道功能。对于长期应用，植入的神经假体可以形成可靠、低维护且患者可接受的系统。讨论此类系统的优点，然后对植入式刺激器进行一般描述。我们讨论了我们中心目前开发的第一代和第二代神经假体的特点，然后讨论了我们在脊髓损伤患者康复中应用这些装置的经验。皇冠版权所有 (C) 2001 由 Elsevier Science Ltd 代表 IPEM 出版。版权所有。
Neuroprostheses that electrically stimulate paralyzed muscles provide functional enhancements for individuals with spinal cord injury and stroke such as standing and stepping, reaching and grasping, and bladder and bowel function. For chronic applications, implanted neuroprostheses lead to reliable, low-maintenance and patient-acceptable systems. The advantages of such systems are discussed followed by a generic description of implantable stimulators. Features of current first and second generation neuroprostheses developed at our centre are discussed followed by our experience in the application of these devices in the rehabilitation of individuals with spinal cord injury.
