DESCRIPTION

IpsiHand is a Medical-Robots from Neurolutions. It is built for Medical-Assistance, Rehabilitation. Key figures: released 2023.

IpsiHand is Neurolutions' brain-computer interface system for at-home rehabilitation of the arm and hand in adults with chronic stroke, and the first BCI device to receive FDA market authorization (De Novo, 2021). It reads the intention to move from healthy, uninjured parts of the brain on the same side as the affected hand, so patients need no active movement to use it. The system has three parts: a non-invasive EEG headset that detects the patient's motor intent, a wireless powered handpiece worn on the affected hand that opens and closes it when the patient imagines movement, and a tablet that guides daily sessions and reports results. In a randomized controlled trial, 55.5% of patients achieved a clinically meaningful improvement at 12 weeks versus 9.6% with a home exercise program, with a mean gain of 6.0 points on the Upper Extremity Fugl-Meyer scale. It is prescription-only and classed as durable medical equipment under HCPCS code E0738.
