脊髓損傷(spinal cord injury, SCI)是一種臨床常見的嚴重外傷性中樞神經(jīng)損傷,目前臨床上對于SCI的治療仍是一個世界性難題。
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a common and severe traumatic central nervous system injury in clinical practice. Currently, the treatment of SCI remains a worldwide challenge.
據(jù)國外研究證實:“經(jīng)皮脊髓電刺激(Transcutaneous electrical spinal cord stimulation TSCS)”是一種有效作用于激活人體運動相關(guān)回路的非侵入性技術(shù)。該方法利用獨特的無痛刺激波形,通過放置在脊柱皮膚上的電極傳輸,并可能通過背根(Dorsal roots,DRs)傳播以激活脊髓神經(jīng)回路。該項研究的成果最近發(fā)表在《Nature Medicine》上,研究結(jié)果顯示,經(jīng)皮脊髓電刺激治療技術(shù)是安全且有一定效果的。
International studies have confirmed that TSCS is an effective non-invasive technique to activate the body's movement-related circuits. This method utilizes a unique stimulation waveform that is transmitted through electrodes placed on the skin of the spine and spreads through the dorsal roots (DRs) to activate the spinal cord neural circuits. The related study was recently published in the journal "Nature Medicine", showing that the transcutaneous spinal cord electrical stimulation treatment technology is safe and has certain effects.
本研究的主要目的是:對慢性不完全性(AIS B/C/D)脊髓損傷患者實施為期6個月的佩戴“經(jīng)皮脊髓電刺激”進行“昆明步行訓練”,觀察兩者的協(xié)同作用,并評估該治療方法是否能提高患者的運動功能。The main objective of this study is to have patients with chronic incomplete (AIS B/C/D) spinal cord injuries wear "transcutaneous spinal cord electrical stimulator " and undergo "Kunming locomotor training" for 6 months, observe the synergistic effects of the two, and evaluate whether this treatment method can improve patients' motor functions.
