A 12-year-old boy, Oren Noxon, from England, who suffers from epilepsy, has successfully received a unique brain implant that helps control seizures from the disease, theguardian.com reports on August 18.
The implant installed in Oren not only monitors brain activity, but is also able to prevent falls and injuries associated with epileptic seizures. This solution opens up new possibilities for the treatment of epilepsy and other neurological disorders.
Leading scientists including Professor Tim Denison have been involved in the development of this technology, and he has announced plans to introduce such devices into clinical practice in the coming years. “This device could be a real breakthrough not only for people with epilepsy, but also for those suffering from chronic pain, arthritis and other serious illnesses.”says the developer.
The world is working to create and improve neuroimplants that can treat various neurological disorders. Companies such as Neuralink, Inbrain, Galvani Bioelectronics and London MintNeuro are developing innovative solutions that could revolutionize the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, tinnitus and many other diseases.
The total bioelectronics market is already estimated at more than 2.2 trillion rubles, which indicates significant potential and interest in this area of research.
