Zapping the spine to restore bodily control after injury
NCT ID NCT05369520
Summary
This pilot study is testing whether a non-invasive electrical stimulation applied to the skin over the spine can help improve automatic body functions that are often disrupted after a spinal cord injury. Researchers are recruiting 30 adults with chronic spinal cord injuries to see if this stimulation can help with problems like unstable blood pressure, bladder and bowel control, and sexual function. The study involves mapping the spine and then using the stimulation during several weeks of therapy to see if symptoms improve.
