Spinal stimulation and cycling: a new hope for injury recovery?

NCT ID NCT07445685

First seen Apr 04, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 12 times

Summary

This study tests whether a gentle electrical current applied to the spine (transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation) during assisted cycling can improve leg movement and reduce muscle spasms in adults with incomplete spinal cord injury. Forty participants who have been injured for less than a year will receive either real stimulation or a sham treatment during cycling sessions. Researchers will measure changes in muscle strength, walking ability, and bladder/bowel function to see if the combination therapy is safe and effective.
