Feedback control of upright seating with functional neuromuscular stimulation during a reaching task after spinal cord injury: a feasibility study
Abstract
Restoring or improving seated stability after spinal cord injury (SCI) can improve the ability to perform activities of daily living by providing a dynamic, yet stable, base for upper extremity motion. Seated stability can be obtained with activation of the otherwise paralyzed trunk and hip musculature with neural stimulation, which has been shown to extend upper limb reach and improve seated posture.
