No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The objectives of the study are to evaluate trunk task-oriented training combined with function electrical stimulation (FES/T-TOT) efficacy on sitting balance and functional independence, and to understand the mechanisms of neuroplasticity that would improve functional independence following FES/T-TOT in individuals with spinal cord injury.

Conditions

  • Spinal Cord Injuries

Interventions

OTHER

Trunk-oriented task training combined with functional electrical stimulation

Training will consist to perform one hour of trunk task-oriented training combined with functional electrical stimulation (FES/T-TOT) specific for muscle strength and motor control. All training will be done seated without support with knees and hips flexed to 90 degrees. FES will be combined with functional and non-functional tasks to work functionality and muscle strengthening. Each training session will consist on the fulfilment of two functional tasks (as reaching) and two non-functional tasks (as push-up movement) from a battery of postural control exercises.

OTHER

Trunk-oriented task training alone

The SCI participants who will perform T-TOT training alone will have to perform the same exercises as explained in the previous section (two functional tasks and two non-functional tasks) but they will not receive any functional electrical stimulation. Training will consist to perform one hour of trunk task-oriented training (T-TOT) specific for muscle strength and motor control. All training will be done seated without support with knees and hips flexed to 90 degrees. Each training session will consist on the fulfilment of two functional tasks (as reaching) and two non-functional tasks (as push-up movement) from a battery of postural control exercises.
