Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of non-invasive (transcutaneous) closed-loop electrical spinal cord stimulation for recovery of upper limb function (Aim 1) and spasticity (Aim 2) following spinal cord injury.

Conditions

  • Spinal Cord Injuries

Interventions

DEVICE

Open-loop Stimulation

Spinal cord stimulation will be applied continuously over the skin throughout the intervention session.

DEVICE

Close-loop Stimulation

Spinal cord stimulation will start and stop based on the signals that come from the sensors placed on upper limb muscle surfaces.

OTHER

Functional Task Practice

Exercise therapy consists of repeated functional hand and arm movements
