Summary

This study tests a leg-worn device called AccelBand that uses mild electrical pulses to improve bowel function in people with spinal cord injury. About 100 participants will receive either active treatment or a sham (inactive) device to see if it reduces constipation and other bowel symptoms. The goal is to find a non-invasive way to manage neurogenic bowel dysfunction without medication.
