Clinical Testing and Assessment of the Physiological Effects of Invasive Spinal Cord Stimulation Using Electroencephalography to Optimize Rehabilitation Programs and Develop Personalized Approaches for Recovery After Spinal Injury
The aim of the study is to identify the specific characteristics of brain network dysfunctions and assess the recovery of their functionality through the recording of resting-state electroencephalography (EEG) during rehabilitation using spinal cord stimulation (SCS). Researchers expect that effective SCS scenarios will result in progressive alterations in the quantitative metrics of resting-state EEG throughout the rehabilitation period. The data obtained may be used to optimize rehabilitation protocols and develop personalized approaches for recovery after spinal cord injury.
