Quantification of Lower Limb Kinematics During Swimming in Individuals with Spinal Cord Injury

Sensors
Spinal cord injuries (SCI) often result in impaired motor functions. To quantify these impairments, swimming patterns were analyzed in individuals with SCI.

Inflammatory Stress Effects on Health and Function After Spinal Cord Injury

, 2017
Injury to the spinal cord produces immediate, adaptive inflammatory responses that can exacerbate the initial injury and lead to secondary damage. Thus far, researchers and clinicians have focused on modulating acute inflammation to preserve sensorimotor

Exploring the relationship of clinical walking tests with 8-months inertial measurement unit (IMU)-based real world mobility tracking in stroke and spinal cord injury survivors

Neurological Research and Practice
Background Mobility is crucial for participation and quality of life in individuals with sensorimotor impairments, yet scientific evidence on its course in real-world settings is limited.

Validity of the SF-36 Health Survey as an outcome measure for trials in people with spinal cord injury [PDF]

The SF-36 was interviewer-administered to 305 subjects at recruitment. Feasibility, content validity and internal consistency were assessed. We tested a priori hypotheses about discriminative, convergent and divergent validity.

Activity-based recovery training with spinal cord epidural stimulation improves standing performance in cervical spinal cord injury

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation
Background Individuals with a clinically complete spinal cord injury are unable to stand independently without external assistance. Studies have shown the combination of spinal cord epidural stimulation (scES) targeted for standing with activity-based ...

Rehabilitation of the lower extremities, standing and walking function in people with spinal cord injury or disease: Guideline of the German-Speaking Medical Society for Spinal Cord Injury

GMS German Medical Science
Introduction: According of the level and severity of the spinal cord injury or disease (SCI/D), and the impairment of motor, sensory, and autonomic functions, individuals with SCI/D recover some standing and walking capabilities.

Temporal summation in human peripheral axons when stimulated transcutaneously with a 10‐kHz waveform

Experimental Physiology
Transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation, as used for rehabilitation of impaired motor function after spinal cord injury, often involves a 10‐kHz waveform modulated to produce repetitive bursts of stimulation.

Mechanisms involved in chronic neuropathic pain after avulsion injury [PDF]

, 2010
PhDMotor vehicle accidents are the most common cause of injuries involving avulsion of spinal roots from the brachial or lumbosacral plexuses. This results in chronic intractable pain that is refractory to pharmacotherapy.

CO- TRANSPLANTATION OF BONE MARROW STROMAL CELLS WITH SCHWANN CELLS EVOKES MECHANICAL ALLODYNIA IN THE CONTUSION MODEL OF SPINAL CORD INJURY IN RATS [PDF]

Objective: Several studies have shown that, although transplantation of neural stem cells into the contusion model of spinal cord injury (SCI) promotes locomotor function and improves functional recovery, it induces a painful response, Allodynia ...
