Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to obtain preliminary device safety information and demonstrate proof of principle (feasibility) of the ability of people with tetraplegia to control a computer cursor and other assistive devices with their thoughts.

Primary Outcome

To determine the safety of the Sensor and overall safety of the System. Participants will be considered a success for this safety measure if they are successfully implanted with the Sensor(s) and: 1. the sensors are not explanted for safety reasons during the one-year post-implant evaluation period. 2. there are no device-related Serious Adverse Events that result in death or permanently increased disability during the one-year post-implant evaluation period.
