Cardiovascular safety of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation in cervical spinal cord injury

Neurotherapeutics
This study evaluated whether cervical transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) in conjunction with rehabilitation on upper extremity function alters blood pressure regulation in individuals with cervical spinal cord injury. This study is a secondary

Improved Sensation With Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation Following Chronic Spinal Cord Injury

IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering
Introduction: Following spinal cord injury (SCI), recovery of sensation is often neglected despite its critical roles in motor task execution and injury prevention.

Transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation neuromodulates pre- and postsynaptic inhibition in the control of spinal spasticity

Cell Reports Medicine
Summary: Aside from enabling voluntary control over paralyzed muscles, a key effect of spinal cord stimulation is the alleviation of spasticity. Dysfunction of spinal inhibitory circuits is considered a major cause of spasticity.

Transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation of the cervical cord modulates lumbar networks [PDF]

Journal of Neurophysiology, 2020
It has been established that coordinated arm and leg (A&L) cycling facilitates corticospinal drive and modulation of cervico-lumbar connectivity and ultimately improves overground walking in people with incomplete spinal cord injury or stroke.

Neural Substrates of Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation: Neuromodulation across Multiple Segments of the Spinal Cord [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2022
Transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) has the potential to promote improved sensorimotor rehabilitation by modulating the circuitry of the spinal cord non-invasively. Little is currently known about how cervical or lumbar tSCS influences the excitability of spinal and corticospinal networks, or whether the synergistic effects of multi-segmental

Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation Restores Hand and Arm Function After Spinal Cord Injury [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2021
Paralysis of the upper extremity severely restricts independence and quality of life after spinal cord injury. Regaining control of hand and arm movements is the highest treatment priority for people with paralysis, 6-fold higher than restoring walking ability.

POSTURE OF HEALTHY SUBJECTS MODULATED BY TRANSCUTANEOUS SPINAL CORD STIMULATION

Life, 2023
Transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the spinal cord is used to restore locomotion and body weight support in patients with severe motor disorders. We studied effects of this non-invasive stimulation on postural control in healthy subjects. Stimulation at the L1-L2 vertebrae was performed to activate the extensor muscles of the lower limbs. Because

Exploration of High and Low Frequency Options for Subperception Spinal Cord Stimulation Using Neural Dosing Parameter Relationships: The HALO Study

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Subperception spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is described mostly utilizing waveforms that require high energy. However, the necessity of these waveforms for effective subperception has not been established. We aimed to explore whether effective subperception pain relief can be achieved using frequencies below 1 kHz.
