Abstract
Objective
The objective of this narrative review was to locate and assess recent articles employing a combinatorial approach of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation or epidural spinal cord stimulation with additional modalities. We sought to provide relevant knowledge of recent literature and advance understanding on outcomes reported, to better equip those working in neurorehabilitation and neuromodulation.
Methods
Articles were selected and analyzed based on study approach, stimulation parameters, outcome measures, and presence of neurophysiological data to support findings.
Results
This narrative review analyzed 44 recent articles employing a combinatorial approach of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation or epidural spinal cord stimulation with additional modalities. Our findings showed that limited research exists regarding such combinatorial approaches, particularly when considering modalities beyond activity-based training. There is also limited consistency in neurophysiological and quality of life outcomes.
Conclusion
Articles involving transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation or epidural spinal cord stimulation with other modalities are limited in the current body of literature. Authors noted variety in approach, sample size, and use of participant perspective. Opportunities are present to add high quality research to this body of literature.
Significance
Transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation and epidural spinal cord stimulation are emerging in research as viable avenues for targeting improvement of function after traumatic spinal cord injury, particularly when combined with activity-based training. This body of literature demonstrates viable areas for growth from both neurophysiological and functional perspectives. Further, exploration of novel combinatorial approaches holds potential to offer enhanced contributions to clinical and neurophysiological rehabilitation and research.
期刊介绍：
As of January 1999, The journal Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, and its two sections Electromyography and Motor Control and Evoked Potentials have amalgamated to become this journal - Clinical Neurophysiology.
Clinical Neurophysiology is the official journal of the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology, the Brazilian Society of Clinical Neurophysiology, the Czech Society of Clinical Neurophysiology, the Italian Clinical Neurophysiology Society and the International Society of Intraoperative Neurophysiology.The journal is dedicated to fostering research and disseminating information on all aspects of both normal and abnormal functioning of the nervous system. The key aim of the publication is to disseminate scholarly reports on the pathophysiology underlying diseases of the central and peripheral nervous system of human patients. Clinical trials that use neurophysiological measures to document change are encouraged, as are manuscripts reporting data on integrated neuroimaging of central nervous function including, but not limited to, functional MRI, MEG, EEG, PET and other neuroimaging modalities.
