MyndMove Therapy for Severe Hemiparesis of the Upper Limb Following Stroke

During a MyndMove therapy session, the patient is instructed to attempt to execute a task voluntarily. As the patient is attempting to perform the designated task, specific muscles in the arm are stimulated to generate contractions that produce the desired movement. After a brief interval of the patient attempting to initiate a movement the therapist activates the MyndMove stimulation protocol, which generates bursts of short electrical pulses, using surface electrodes, to produce muscle contractions enabling the patient to complete the desired/instructed task. Proper sequencing of the muscle contractions as per the MyndMove protocols are tailored to achieve a wide range of reaching and grasping functions. The technique stimulates non-damaged pathways of the central nervous system.
