Artificial Balance: Restoration of the Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex in Humans with a Prototype Vestibular Neuroprosthesis (original) (raw)

2014, Frontiers in Neurology

AI-generated Abstract

This research introduces a prototype vestibular neuroprosthesis designed to restore vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) function in humans suffering from bilateral vestibular loss (BVL). The study evaluates the neuroprosthesis in three implanted patients by measuring VOR responses to sinusoidal rotations under different stimulation conditions. Results indicate that the neuroprosthesis effectively enhances VOR gain, providing evidence of potential clinical benefits for individuals with vestibular dysfunction.
