Precision Versus Endurance Training to Improve Walking After Chronic Incomplete SCI
研究概览
详细说明
PARTICIPANTS: Inclusion criteria: 1) SCI from trauma or other stable lesions, 2) injury occurred ≥ 7 mo prior, 3) able to walk independently at least 5 m with a walking aid and/or braces, 4) injury level between C1-L1, 5) able to give informed consent, 6) able to attend training sessions 5x/week. Exclusion criteria: 1) head injury, 2) cognitive or musculoskeletal impairments that preclude participation in walking training, 3) seizures or implants in the head that would preclude participation in experiments using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
INTERVENTIONS:
Precision Training. Training was performed on a 15 m long track. The track contained obstacles and targets. Obstacles were made of Styrofoam blocks of 3 cm height each, varying in width from 4 cm to 20 cm in divisions of 4 cm increments (which must be cleared without touching), and targets were made of fabric circles, ranging in diameter from 7-10.5 cm (which must be totally obscured by their foot). The difficulty of the track was designed to have the participant achieve ~80% success. The emphasis was on accuracy, not speed.
Endurance Training. The aim of this training was mass practice. Participants walked on the treadmill, with body-weight support (BWS) and manual assistance if needed. The treadmill speed was initially set to be faster than their over ground walking speed as measured by the 10 MWT(ss). Participants were encouraged to walk for as far and as fast as possible with minimal rest periods. Progression involved reducing manual assistance and BWS, increasing walking speed and distance, while reducing rest breaks.
In both phases of training, a research assistant or volunteer recorded training parameters each session. The number of steps executed was measured with a step counter (StepWatch, Orthocare Innovations, USA), which was confirmed to be accurate with simultaneous manual counting prior to its use, and periodically during training sessions. The heart rate before and immediately after each bout of walking was measured with a heart rate monitor (Polar FT7, Polar, Canada). The total time, distance and walking speed for each walking bout was recorded.
MEASURES:
Measures were taken prior to all training at baseline (called Baseline I) and the end of each of the following intervals - one month of Training Phase I, two months of Training Phase I, one month of Rest Period I, two months of Rest Period I, one month of Training Phase II, two months of Training Phase II, one month of Rest Period II, two months of Rest Period II. To measure changes during the second phase of training, the baseline was the average of the one and two month measures of Rest Period I, henceforth called Baseline II.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: To determined if one type of training was superior to the other, we compared the change scores (i.e., post-training score minus pre-training score) from each type of training using a standard t-test or a Mann-Whitney U test, as appropriate. Since individuals with high compared to low walking function may respond to the training differently, we divided individuals based on their pretraining walking speed as measured by the 10 MWT(ss) (i.e., > or < 0.5 m/s). The change scores from each of these groups of individuals were then compared for each type of training using a standard t-test or a Mann-Whitney U test, as appropriate. To determine the time course for obtaining a treatment effect, we compared the change scores for the first month (i.e., outcome measure at end of 1 mo minus baseline) versus the second month (outcome measure at end of 2 mo minus at end of 1 mo) of training for each type of training, using a standard t-test or a Mann-Whitney U test, as appropriate. Retention of gains was followed for 2 months after each type of training. The outcome measures at the end of the 2 month rest period were compared to the measures immediately after the training, for individuals that made improvements greater than the standard error of measurement for each measure, using a paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test, as appropriate.

实验性的：Endurance first
Participants to start with Endurance Training.
Participants are trained daily to walk on a treadmill for as fast and as long as possible.
A harness supporting part of their body weight can be used if needed.
Assistance from a trainer is used if needed.
A physical therapist supervises the training.
Training was 5x/wk for 2 months, followed by a 2-month rest period.
Participants then returned for training in the Precision Training 5x/wk for 2 months.Participants train to walk over ground on 15 m straight hallway with obstacles they must step over, and targets they must step onto.
This is followed by another 2-month rest.
Measures of walking speed, distance, skill, confidence, as well as mood were obtained at least 3 times before any training, then monthly thereafter.

大体时间：Change from Baseline I to the end of the study (i.e., end of Rest Period II, which was ~8 months after the beginning of the study)
|
This is a 7 item, timed walking test.
Participants perform each of the walking tasks and the time to complete each task is recorded.
Maximum times are set for each task.
An assistance category is assigned based on the walking aids used, with 1 being no aid and 6 being unable to complete the task.
A score for each item is calculated as: Time x Assistance factor/Mean able bodied time.
A composite (single) score is obtained by summing the scores for all 7 items.
The maximum score for the scale is 2100 indicating that the participant was unable to complete any of the 7 tasks within the allowed time.
A minimum score of 7 indicates that all tasks were performed with no aids and at the mean able-bodied time.
Results are reported as a measure of change: Final score - initial score.
A negative result indicates improvement.

Change in Manual Muscle Test (MMT) at 2 Months of Training Phase I
大体时间：Change from Baseline I to 2 months of Training Phase I
|
The strength of each of 8 major muscle groups (per side) in the lower extremities is graded using the standard manual muscle testing technique. Strength is graded from 0 (no muscle activity detected) to 5 (strength with normal range for the muscle group). Scores from all muscle groups are added to obtain the total score. The total score ranges from 0 (unable to produce any muscle activity in all 8 muscle groups bilaterally) to 80 (normal strength in all 8 muscle groups bilaterally). Results are reported as Final score - Initial score. A positive result indicates an increase in strength. |

Change in Cutaneomuscular Reflexes at 2 Months of Training Phase I
大体时间：Change from Baseline I to 2 months of Training Phase I
|
Reflexes are elicited in standing by electrical stimulation (3 pulses) of the tibial nerve at the ankle using surface electrodes.
Responses are recorded with surface electromyography (EMG) in µV.
