LIFT Home Study of Non-Invasive ARC Therapy for Spinal Cord Injury

About this trial

This trial is enrolling individuals with chronic, cervical (neck area) spinal cord injuries to test the effect of a spinal stimulation device on upper extremity function. Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a technique for stimulating the spinal cord (either with an implanted electrode placed next to the spinal cord or via surface stimulation) to modify spinal cord function. This study uses surface electrodes attached to the skin at the neck region. Electrical impulses are targeted to enable arm and hand movements. The SCS will be applied in the home setting during a specific treatment program prescribed by the investigators. If included, participants will undergo the attachment of electrodes to the skin surface at the neck region and perform the treatment program at home for 1 month. Final testing will be performed at around 6 months.
