Spinal cord stimulation therapy for walking recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests if an electrical stimulation device placed in the spine can help people with spinal cord injury improve their ability to walk. It is for adults who had a traumatic injury either very recently (within 6 weeks) or more than a year ago.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- Your spinal cord injury was caused by an accident or trauma (not a disease or other cause).
- Your injury is at T10 or higher, and there is healthy spinal tissue below the injury.
- You have enough arm and hand strength to support yourself with your arms.
- You can speak and understand German, French, or English.
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant.

This study tests a new technology that uses electrical stimulation on the back, guided by artificial intelligence, to help people with spinal cord injuries improve their leg movement and walking. It also includes a small group of healthy volunteers to help calibrate the system.
This trial tests whether adding spinal cord stimulation to walking practice can improve leg movement and recovery after a recent spinal cord injury. It may help you regain more strength and function in your legs.
This trial tests if combining brain-computer interface technology with spinal cord stimulation can help improve walking in people with chronic spinal cord injury. It aims to see if this approach works when standard rehab has stopped helping.
This study tests whether combining electrical stimulation of the spinal cord with personalized physical therapy can improve leg and foot function after a spinal cord injury. If it works, it might help you move better and do more daily activities.
This study tests a therapy using an implanted spinal array and a lumbar system (ARC-IM) to support mobility in people with chronic spinal cord injury. It focuses on whether the approach is safe and may improve walking or movement over time.
This study tests a treatment that uses a small device to send electrical signals to your spinal cord, combined with physical therapy to help you move better. It is for people with long-term spinal cord damage that causes nerve pain and makes it hard to stand or walk.
