The results of our flagship RCT investigating transcutaneous spinal stimulation to improve walking in chronic spinal cord injury have now been published @eClinicalMed

In short: stim + gold standard physio not better than gold standard physio alone

Our team in Glasgow were honoured to be a site in this important clinical trial. Great to see the important results shared. In summary, spinal stimulation plus rehabilitation was no more effective than rehabilitation alone in improving walking for people with chronic paraplegia

Exciting to see the results of the Ewalk trial presented at @ISCoSmeetings

12 weeks of Transcutaneous spinal stimulation plus locomotor training did not improve walking ability compared to locomotor training alone in chronic spinal cord injury
