FES-assisted Gait Intervention in People with Spinal Cord Injury - Pilot Study

NCT05908175 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 5

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

A spinal cord injury (SCI) disrupts the communication within the nervous system, leading to limitations in sensorimotor activities such as walking. Regular use of functional electrical stimulation (FES) can result in recovery of voluntary muscle control and muscle strength. Locomotor training with FES may be a promising method to improve gait function. The primary objective of this pilot study is to assess the feasibility and safety of an FES-assisted gait training intervention. Secondary objectives are to assess the effects of an FES-assisted gait training intervention on gait function.
