About this study
This trial is testing whether transcutaneous spinal stimulation can improve muscle stiffness and spasms after a spinal cord injury. It compares different levels of spinal stimulation, as well as combining it with medications like baclofen or tizanidine, to see which approach works best for reducing these symptoms.
Based on ClinicalTrials.gov records.
What participants do
- 1.Take Transcutaneous spinal stimulation at 50 Hz and single dose of baclofen
- 2.Take Transcutaneous spinal stimulation at 50 Hz and single dose of tizanidine
- 3.Use Sham transcutaneous spinal stimulation
