"Artificial brainwaves" could help cure stroke and other neuro diseases. An RCT showed stroke patients who used the electromagnetic treatment recovered faster and better, to the point that they could resume normal life. timesofisrael.com/study-of-25-st…
The therapy was developed by @BrainQTech and is delivered by a wearable device that's worn like a crown. Full disclosure: I worked with the company to present the findings of this research.
The device delivers patterns of EM radiation derived from brainwaves, and it seems to trigger the nervous system's self-repair mechanisms.
The clinical trial was testing it as a stroke therapy, but the company has hopes for treating other neurological damage like brain and spine injury, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's too.
The study will be presented at the International Stroke Conference this week. The abstract is here: eventpilotadmin.com/web/page.php?p…
The company received FDA Breakthrough Device status based partly on this research. Next step is a full Pivotal (Phase III) Trial in the US.
