NCT ID NCT07217314

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study compares an updated spinal stimulation device (STEPSS) with a current device in 10 healthy adults. Participants lie on their back while small electrodes on the spine send electrical currents, and leg muscle activity is recorded. The goal is to see if the new device works better for future use in spinal cord injury research.

What this could mean

Active substance
Spinal stimulation device (STEPSS)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to better spinal stimulation devices for helping people with spinal cord injuries.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early study in healthy people only, so results may not apply to those with injuries. The devices may not work as hoped.
