Only technologies targeting sensorimotor conduction and functional improvement can confirm the potential of the time factor. Non-invasive neuromodulation has been shown to work for combat spinal cord injury of varying severity.</p><p><strong>Material and methods: </strong>We have analysed 154 cases of severe combat spinal cord injury, followed continuously for at least 12 months from the start of neurorehabilitation. A unified «end-to-end» protocol combined rTvMS of the spinal cord with simultaneous TcES of peripheral nerves in different modes was developed for non-invasive spinal cord neuromodulation.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The combination of these parameters produced the most positive results in post-traumatic sensory-motor disorders: (<i>i</i>). rTvMS, level ThX-LI: 2000 pulses per set, 100 pulse packages, 5-10 Hz, intensity \"+ 30--40%\" of the threshold of the evoked motor potential; TcES n. tibialis or n. peroneus: 5-10 Hz, pulse intensity corresponded to the threshold of the motor response, functional electrical stimulation (FES) mode.
