The Differences Between Motor Attempt and Motor Imagery in Brain-Computer Interface Accuracy and Event-Related Desynchronization of Patients With Hemiplegia

Background: Motor attempt and motor imagery (MI) are two common motor tasks used in brain-computer interface (BCI). They are widely researched for motor rehabilitation in patients with hemiplegia. The differences between the motor attempt (MA) and MI tasks of patients with hemiplegia can be used to...

The differences between the motor attempt (MA) and MI tasks of patients with hemiplegia can be used to promote BCI application. This study aimed to explore the accuracy of BCI and event-related desynchronization (ERD) between the two tasks.Materials and Methods: We recruited 13 patients with stroke and 3 patients with traumatic brain injury, to perform MA and MI tasks in a self-control design. The BCI accuracies from the bilateral, ipsilesional, and contralesional hemispheres were analyzed and compared between different tasks. The cortical activation patterns were evaluated with ERD and laterality index (LI).Results: The study showed that the BCI accuracies of MA were significantly (p < 0.05) higher than MI in the bilateral, ipsilesional, and contralesional hemispheres in the alpha-beta (8–30 Hz) frequency bands. There was no significant difference in ERD and LI between the MA and MI tasks in the 8–30 Hz frequency bands. However, in the MA task, there was a negative correlation between the ERD values in the channel CP1 and ipsilesional hemispheric BCI accuracies (r = −0.552, p = 0.041, n = 14) and a negative correlation between the ERD values in channel CP2 and bilateral hemispheric BCI accuracies (r = −0.543, p = 0.045, n = 14). While in the MI task, there were negative correlations between the ERD values in channel C4 and bilateral hemispheric BCI accuracies (r = −0.582, p = 0.029, n = 14) as well as the contralesional hemispheric BCI accuracies (r = −0.657, p = 0.011, n = 14). As for motor dysfunction, there was a significant positive correlation between the ipsilesional BCI accuracies and FMA scores of the hand part in 8–13 Hz (r = 0.565, p = 0.035, n = 14) in the MA task and a significant positive correlation between the ipsilesional BCI accuracies and FMA scores of the hand part in 13–30 Hz (r = 0.558, p = 0.038, n = 14) in the MI task.Conclusion: The MA task may achieve better BCI accuracy but have similar cortical activations with the MI task. Cortical activation (ERD) may influence the BCI accuracy, which should be carefully considered in the BCI motor rehabilitation of patients with hemiplegia.Shugeng ChenXiaokang ShuHewei WangLi DingJianghong FuJie JiaJie JiaJie JiaFrontiers Media S.A.articleBCI accuraciesevent-related desynchronizationmotor attemptmotor imagerybrain-computer interfaceNeurosciences.
