Efficacy of a Brain-Computer Interface Controlled Functional Electrical Stimulation Therapy for Spinal Cord Injury Neurorehabilitation
September 27, 2023 updated by: Jessica Cantillo-Negrete, Instituto Nacional de Rehabilitacion
Efficacy of a Therapy With Brain-Computer Interface Controlled Functional Electrical Stimulation for Neurorehabilitation of Patients With Spinal Cord Injury (Eficacia de Una Terapia Con estimulación eléctrica Funcional Controlada Con Interfaz Cerebro-computadora Para neurorrehabilitación de Pacientes Con lesión Medular)
The study's main goal is to determine the efficacy of a therapy with brain-computer interface controlled functional electrical stimulation for neurorehabilitation of spinal cord injury patients' upper limbs.
For this purpose, a randomized controlled trial will be performed to compare the clinical and physiological effects of the brain-computer interface therapy with those of a sham intervention comprised by the application of functional electrical stimulation independently of brain-computer interface control.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Brain-Computer Interface controlled functional electrical stimulation feedback
|
Hand movement will be elicited using functional electrical stimulation activated by the brain-computer interface based on hand movement intention.
|
Sham Comparator: Sham Brain-Computer Interface controlled functional electrical stimulation feedback
|
Hand movement will be elicited using functional electrical stimulation which activation will be independent of the brain-computer interface based on hand movement intention.
|
What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Action Research Arm Test (ARAT)
Time Frame: At enrollment and after 7 weeks of the intervention onset
|
Change of upper limbs function.
Scale ranges from 0 to 57 points for each upper limb.
A higher score means a better upper limb function.
|
At enrollment and after 7 weeks of the intervention onset
|
Upper Extremity Motor Score (UEMS)
Time Frame: At enrollment and after 7 weeks of the intervention onset
|
Change of upper limbs function.
Scale ranges from 0 to 50 points if both upper limbs are assessed.
A higher score means a better upper limb function.
|
At enrollment and after 7 weeks of the intervention onset
|
Capabilities of Upper Extremities Questionnaire (CUE-Q)
Time Frame: At enrollment and after 7 weeks of the intervention onset
|
Change of the functional limitation in tetraplegia.
Scale ranges from 32 to 224 points if both upper limbs are assessed.
A higher score means less functional limitation outcome.
|
At enrollment and after 7 weeks of the intervention onset
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Spinal Cord Independence Measure III (SCIM-III)
Time Frame: At enrollment and after 7 weeks of the intervention onset
|
Change of achievements of daily function.
Scale ranges from 0 to 100 points.
A higher score means a better capacity to perform activities of the daily living.
|
At enrollment and after 7 weeks of the intervention onset
|
Life Satisfaction Questionnaire 9 (LISAT-9)
Time Frame: At enrollment and after 7 weeks of the intervention onset
|
Change of life satisfaction.
Scale ranges from 0 to 54 points.
A higher score is expected with a better life satisfaction.
|
At enrollment and after 7 weeks of the intervention onset
