Washington: A new study has revealed that an AI-guided brain implant can provide 24-hour care for individuals suffering from Parkinson’s disease.
American researchers have stated that the implant uses AI to monitor the patient’s brain activity, which can lead to mobility issues during the day and insomnia at night.
When the device detects disruptive activity, it intervenes with a precisely calibrated amount of electricity, known as Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS).
Researchers noted that the summary of the study is that this implant consistently reduces the symptoms experienced by Parkinson’s patients in their daily lives.
The research on the implant, published in the journal Nature Medicine, shows that an initial clinical trial involving four individuals found the implant reduced the most distressing symptoms of Parkinson’s by 50%.
