Downhill walking with muscle stimulation tested to help spinal cord injury patients walk again
NCT ID NCT05337982
Summary
This study is testing a new rehabilitation program to help people recover walking ability after a recent spinal cord injury. Researchers will first test participants' blood and spinal fluid to find the best time to start a 12-week program of walking downhill on a treadmill while using mild electrical stimulation on the leg muscles. The goal is to see if this specific training, added to standard therapy, improves trunk and leg movement, walking, and overall function compared to standard therapy alone.
