Summary

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of electromyography (EMG) triggered electrical stimulation (ES) applied to multifidus and erector spinae muscles on trunk balance in patients with complete thoracic spinal cord injury (SCI).

The fundamental questions that investigators want to answer are as follows:

* \[question 1\]: "Does multifidus and erector spinae EMG ES improve trunk balance in patients with complete SCI?"
* \[question 2\]: "Does multifidus and erector spinae EMG ES improve muscle thickness in patients with complete SCI?"

Conditions

  • Spinal Cord Injury Thoracic

Interventions

DEVICE

Neuro Trac Myo Plus Pro

Electrical stimulation parameters; stimuli were monophasic, rectangular, stimulus duration 300 µs, frequency 25 Hertz, amplitude was increased up to a maximum of 100 milliampere until contraction was seen.

OTHER

Trunk eccentric exercises

The control group performed back eccentric exercises for 4 weeks, 3 times a week, 3 times in each session
