Tetraplegia Clinical Trial
Official title:
Functional Electrical Stimulation Cycling in Acute Spinal Cord Injury; a Feasibility Study
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating, life-altering injury; requiring tremendous changes in an individual's lifestyle. Cycling, provides an ideal way for individuals with SCI to exercise and address the long-term consequences of SCI by targeting the lower extremity muscles. Cycling with the addition of functional electrical stimulation (FES) allows persons with paralysis to exercise their paretic or paralysed leg muscles. The Queen Elizabeth National Spinal Injury Unit (QENSIU) in Glasgow offers FES cycling for people with spinal cord injuries, which combines functional electrical stimulation (FES) with a motorised ergometer that allows repetitive cycling activity. It stimulates muscles with electrodes attached to the skin, producing muscle contractions and patterned activity. So far no previous randomised control trials on FES cycling in the acute SCI population have reported changes in ability to undertake activities of daily living or the trunk balance.
Up to 12 participants admitted to the QENSIU will be recruited to the study. They will be randomised to the intervention (n=8) or control group (n=4). The intervention group will receive 6 weeks FES cycling training in addition to usual care; the control group will receive usual care only. Outcome measures: Spinal Cord Injury Functional Ambulation Inventory, The Spinal Cord Independence Measure, ASIA Impairment Scale, Handheld dynamometry, 10-Metre Walking Test, Timed Up and Go Test, Trunk Impairment Scale, Modified Ashworth scale, Modified Tardieu Scale, the Patients Global Impression of Change. ;
