Evidence suggests that sensorimotor Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) systems can be beneficial for post-stroke motor recovery. Following a successful Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) a translational effort was made at our institution, Fondazione Santa Lucia (Rome, Italy), with the implementation of the Promotœr, an EEG-based BCI training station which is currently employed to support upper limb motor imagery training in add on to standard therapy. The Promotɶr represents a successful story of
translational research in BCI for stroke rehabilitation. Results retrace those of a published RCT and support the feasibility of BCI training in the context of a real rehabilitation program.
