Recruitment of upper-limb motoneurons with epidural electrical stimulation of the cervical spinal cord [PDF]
Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of lumbosacral sensorimotor circuits improves leg motor control in animals and humans with spinal cord injury (SCI). Upper-limb motor control involves similar circuits, located in the cervical spinal cord, suggesting

A Review of Functional Restoration From Spinal Cord Stimulation in Patients With Spinal Cord Injury
Traumatic spinal cord injury often leads to loss of sensory, motor, and autonomic function below the level of injury. Recent advancements in spinal cord electrical stimulation (SCS) for spinal cord injury have provided potential avenues for restoration ...
