简要总结

This pilot feasibility study is assessing the safety and technical performance of the Neurostep™ System for the restoration of independent gait in subjects with gait disorder (i.e. foot drop) secondary to a CNS lesion (e.g. stroke).

详细描述

The Neurostep™ System is a neurostimulation investigational medical device. The entire system is designed to be implanted into the subject's leg via a surgical procedure, during which electrodes are attached to the peripheral nerves responsible for sensing and stimulating the proper muscles that lift the foot during normal walking.

入选标准

  • Diagnosed with a unilateral gait disorder as a result of a specified CNS lesion (e.g., stroke)with stable neurological deficit for at least 6 months
  • Medically stable, able to and agree to undergo a surgery
  • Able to stand and walk at least 5 meters
  • Agree to attend frequent study scheduled visits
  • Able to provide verbal or written feedback
  • Have provided written informed consent
  • Have intact tibial and common peroneal nerves

排除标准

  • Pregnant or nursing women
  • Medically insufficiently stable to undergo surgery
  • Poor range of motion of affected ankle or fixed ankle
  • Foreseen need for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
  • Significant mental or psychiatric impairment
  • Cannot understand or provide signed informed consent
  • Cannot provide verbal or written feedback
  • Have been implanted with a pacemaker or other active medical device
  • Must continuously take anticoagulants
  • Uncontrolled heart or cardiovascular-related disease conditions
  • Have been diagnosed with muscle atrophy and/or peripheral polyneuropathy

结局指标

主要结局

Electrophysiological integrity of the nerves surrounded by the nerve cuffs assessed using Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV) tests. Status Quo in physical examinations of the subject.

时间窗: Throughout the study period (23 weeks)

次要结局

  • Ability to stimulate the common peroneal nerve and selectively activate ankle dorsiflexor muscles to produce symmetrical motion of the foot. Ability to sense the heel-strike and toe-lift events during walking.(From the surgical implantation to the end of the study (i.e. 20 weeks))
