Summary
This study tested whether a gentle electrical stimulation on the belly can help people with spinal cord injury manage their bowel movements more quickly and comfortably. 36 adults with an injury at or above T12 took part. Half received real stimulation, half a low-dose sham. The goal was to see if it reduces the time needed for bowel care and improves quality of life.
