It becomes the revolutionary invention that helps paralyzed walk again

Researchers have implanted electrodes on the lower back of five paralyzed patients, and all gained power to move.

A small group of paraplegic patients have again been able to take several steps after researchers were implanted with an electric device on their back cords, writes The Guardian, translating Periscope in Albanian.

Two separate groups of scientists have discovered for the first time that the technique, combined with physical training, allowed three of the five patients to walk again after losing that opportunity after injury.

It's incredible to be there and see you take your first steps,” Dr. Claudia Angeli, coauthor of one of the studies.

It's also emotional for patients themselves because they're told they can never walk again. ”

In a study published in the New England Medical Journal, Angel and her colleagues reported having implanted a 16 - electrodes device on the back of four patients, paralyzed by various accidents years ago. The device, which was invented to lower back pains years ago, was placed on the lower part of the injury, moving parts and sending sensors to the legs while a battery was implanted on the abdominal wall, allowing the frequency of stimuli, its intensity and duration to be moved by grid. The electrical activity produced by the muscles in the legs was monitored along the sessions. /Periscopi
