A clinical screening protocol for the RSVP Keyboard brain-computer interface.

Conclusions: The RSVP BCI screening protocol is a brief, repeatable technique for patients with different levels of LIS to identify the presence/absence of skills for BCI use. Widespread adoption of screening methods should be a clinical goal and will help standardize BCI implementation for research and intervention. Implications for Rehabilitation People with locked-in syndrome must have certain sensory, motor, cognitive and communication skills to successfully use a brain-computer interface (BCI) for communication. A screening profile would be useful in identifying potentially suitable candidates for BCI. PMID: 24059536 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
