Characterization of interlimb interaction via transcutaneous spinal stimulation of cervical and lumbar spinal enlargements.

J Neurophysiol, 2022
Bidirectional interlimb modulation of spinal motor excitability can be evoked by transcutaneous spinal stimulation over the cervical and lumbosacral enlargements. Multisite transcutaneous spinal stimulation engages spinal sensorimotor networks thought to be important in the recovery of function after spinal cord injury.

Enhanced selectivity of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation by multielectrode configuration

Journal of Neural Engineering, 2023
Abstract Objective. Transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) has been gaining momentum as a non-invasive rehabilitation approach to restore movement to paralyzed muscles after spinal cord injury (SCI). However, its low selectivity limits the types of movements that can be enabled and, thus,

Transcutaneous electrical spinal-cord stimulation in humans

Annals of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine, 2015
Locomotor behavior is controlled by specific neural circuits called central pattern generators primarily located at the lumbosacral spinal cord. These locomotor-related neuronal circuits have a high level of automaticity; that is, they can produce a "stepping" movement pattern also seen on electromyography (EMG) in the absence of supraspinal and/or ...

Neurophysiological and clinical outcome measures of the impact of electrical stimulation on spasticity in spinal cord injury: Systematic review and meta-analysis

Frontiers in Rehabilitation Sciences, 2022
This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to determine whether non-invasive electrical stimulation (ES) is effective at reducing spasticity in people living with spinal cord injury (SCI).

Weight Bearing Over-ground Stepping in an Exoskeleton with Non-invasive Spinal Cord Neuromodulation after Motor Complete Paraplegia

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
We asked whether coordinated voluntary movement of the lower limbs could be regained in an individual having been completely paralyzed (>4 year) and completely absent of vision (>15 year) using two novel strategies—transcutaneous electrical spinal ...

Posteroanterior Cervical Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation: Interactions with Cortical and Peripheral Nerve Stimulation [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2021
Transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (TSCS) has demonstrated potential to beneficially modulate spinal cord motor and autonomic circuitry. We are interested in pairing cervical TSCS with other forms of nervous system stimulation to enhance synaptic plasticity in circuits serving hand function.

Modulation of torque evoked by wide-pulse, high-frequency neuromuscular electrical stimulation and the potential implications for rehabilitation and training

Scientific Reports, 2021
The effectiveness of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) for rehabilitation is proportional to the evoked torque. The progressive increase in torque (extra torque) that may develop in response to low intensity wide-pulse high-frequency (WPHF ...
