Study of Brain-spinal Cord Neural Connectivity in Spasticity (MOVE)

Little is known about the peripheral and central mechanisms of action of selective dorsal rhizotomy surgery for the treatment of spasticity. A better understanding of these mechanisms will enable us to improve the surgical procedure. This will require cortico-medullo-radiculo-muscular recordings never before performed and published in the literature, and the identification of variations in connectivity correlated with the clinic.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
variation in "spontaneous/resting" cortico-medullo-radiculo-muscular synchronization before and after selective rhizotomy surgery
Time Frame: Day 0

variation in the mean spectral power of the neuronal signal between the brain, spinal cord, roots/radicles and muscles (simultaneous recording levels) before and after surgery.

Recordings are expressed as currents, themselves defined by waves. Calculating the average spectral power of the neuronal signal at several points is equivalent to quantifying the power of similarity (frequency and amplitude) between two waves.
