Spinal stimulation with walking practice for spinal cord injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had a spinal cord injury within the last 6 months (but more than 1 week ago).
- You are 16 years old or older.
- Your injury is located between the neck (C1) and the lower back (L2).
- You have some remaining feeling or movement below the injury (AIS A to D).
- You can stand for at least 10 minutes, even with assistance.
- You can understand instructions in French or English.

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 gentle electrical stimulation of the spinal area plus robotic gait training can improve walking function in people with a traumatic spinal cord injury who are not walking independently. It’s meant for people with incomplete injuries where some nerve signals still work, and who can safely use the robotic exoskeleton.
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.
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 trial tests whether a new type of electrical stimulation on the back can help improve walking in people with incomplete spinal cord injury. It uses a device that sends small currents through the skin to the spinal cord.
This trial tests a spinal cord stimulation device to help people with chronic spinal cord injury regain leg movement. It aims to improve muscle control and function.
