Task Practice and Spinal Cord Stimulation (NCT06494020)
Task Practice Combined With Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation to Reduce Muscle Co-contraction and Improve Motor Function in Chronic Spinal Cord Injury
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The goal of this study is to understand the effects of combined task practice with transcutaneous cervical spinal cord stimulation. The study will explore the effect of higher stimulation frequencies on spasticity. Transcutaneous stimulation has been shown to improve motor function in some individuals with chronic spinal cord injury. The study intends to explore scientifically the association between higher stimulation frequencies and spasticity/hypertonicity.
