Consecutive Transcutaneous and Epidural Spinal Cord Neuromodulation to Modify Clinical Complete Paralysis—the Proof of Concept
Objective
To evaluate the effect of transcutaneous (tSCS) and epidural electrical spinal cord stimulation (EES) in facilitating volitional movements, balance, and nonmotor functions, in this observational study, tSCS and EES were consecutively tested in 2 participants with motor complete spinal cord injury (SCI).
Participants and Methods
Two participants (a 48-year-old woman and a 28-year-old man), both classified as motor complete spinal injury, were enrolled in the study. Both participants went through a unified protocol, such as an initial electrophysiological assessment of neural connectivity, consecutive tSCS and EES combined with 8 wks of motor training with electromyography (EMG) and kinematic evaluation. The study was conducted from May 1, 2019, to December 31, 2021.
Results
In both participants, tSCS reported a minimal improvement in voluntary movements still essential to start tSCS-enabled rehabilitation. Compared with tSCS, following EES showed immediate improvement in voluntary movements, whereas tSCS was more effective in improving balance and posture. Continuous improvement in nonmotor functions was found during tSCS-enabled and then during EES-enabled motor training.
Conclusion
Results report a significant difference in the effect of tSCS and EES on the recovery of neurologic functions and support consecutive tSCS and EES applications as a potential therapy for SCI. The proposed approach may help in selecting patients with SCI responsive to neuromodulation. It would also help initiate neuromodulation and rehabilitation therapy early, particularly for motor complete SCI with minimal effect from conventional rehabilitation.
