A personalized task-specific spinal cord stimulation model for recreating muscle activity sequences, to restore locomotion after spinal cord injury

Description succincte (Anglais)

Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Allemand)

A software model is developed in the OptiStim project that derives optimal stimulation patterns by comparing patient specific spinal cord stimulation responses with muscle activity patterns for healthy subjects during walking. The OptiStim model is a key enabler for novel neurotechnologies to improve functional recovery after spinal cord injury. These neurotechnologies include spinal cord stimulation protocols that facilitate leg motor control during rehabilitation.
