Information for healthcare professionals
The NESS H200 Hand Rehabilitation System from Bioness, is a non-invasive, advanced neuroprosthesis indicated for the treatment of upper limb paralysis from hemiplegic stroke, traumatic brain injury or C5-C6 spinal cord injury. The system contains a custom-fit orthosis that uses Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) to sequentially activate muscle groups in the forearm to produce functional movement patterns in the hand.
Key benefits include:
- Neuromuscular re-education
- Prevention/ retardation of disuse atrophy
- Reduction of muscle spasm
- Maintenance/ increase of joint range of motion*
- Increase in local blood circulation
- Providing hand function*
*in hemiplegia due to stroke and C5 SCI
Clinically proven to increase functionality and may reduce spasticity
In clinical studies, the NESS H200 has been shown to improve selected hand function in patients with C5-C6 SCI and improve hand and upper limb function associated with chronic post-stroke paresis, as well as selected functional outcomes in stroke patients including ADL grasp, hold, and release tasks. The H200 has also been proven to minimize pain and spasticity in stroke survivors.
