Cortical stimulation is the process of providing electrical stimulation to the region of the cerebral cortex, the outermost portion of the brain, undergoing recovery. The electrical stimulation is delivered at a level that will not cause sensation or movement in the patient. The electrical stimulation may improve recovery of function after an injury. The purpose of Northstar’s clinical studies is to assess the safety and effectiveness of cortical stimulation in the treatment of stroke related disorders.
