Acute Mechanisms of Cervical Transcutaneous Electrical Stimulation of the Spinal Cord

Spinal Cord Injuries Clinical Trial

Official title:
Investigating the Acute Effects of Transcutaneous Electrical Stimulation Parameters on Neural Circuits, Motoneuron Behavior and Motor Performance in Individuals With Cervical Spinal Cord Injury

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine how delivery of subthreshold electrical stimulation of the spinal cord alters the excitability of neural pathways and consequently movement performance in healthy and spinal cord injured individuals. Specifically, we assess how stimulation parameters such as electrode configurations and stimulation frequency affect spinal excitability, corticospinal excitability, intracortical excitability, motor unit properties and force production. This study is not an intervention study, but a mechanistic study trying to shed light on how this novel neuromodulatory technique acutely affects the central nervous system.
