A study to compare electrophysiologic activity of epidural stimulation and dorsal root ganglion stimulation, as well as quantify changes in motor performance with both types of stimulation over the course of 10 rehabilitation sessions.
This study aims to expand the understanding of how electrical spinal stimulation enables function, specifically the pathophysiological mechanisms of action underlying spinal electrical stimulation after SCI, and to address the gap in knowledge of spinal sensorimotor network inputs and outputs generated by spinal electrical stimulation in humans with SCI.

| Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks |
| Injury severity: American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale (AIS) | Change in measurements of impairment of sensory and motor functions using the American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale (AISA Scale). Individuals are classified from A" (complete spinal cord injury) to "E" (normal function). 28 dermatomes and 10 key muscles are assessed bilaterally. Results are summed to produce overall sensory and motor scores and are used in combination with evaluation of anal sensory and motor function as a basis for the determination of AIS classification. Sensory scores are rated 0 (sensation absent) to 2 (normal), bilaterally for each of 28 dermatomes. Muscle function is rated 0 (total paralysis) to 5 (active movement, full range of motion against significant resistance) for each myotome. Upper Extremity Motor Subscores and Lower Extremity Motor Subscores are each scored from 0 to 50; the ASIA Motor Score is scored from 0 to 100. The presence of anal sensation and voluntary anal contraction are assessed as a yes/no. | Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks |
| Patient-reported bowel function | Measurement of change in bowel function using the Neurogenic Bowel Dysfunction Score. Answers to qualitative questions are rated from 0 to 5, with a higher number indicating more problematic symptoms, and totaled for a score which categorizes severity of neurogenic bowel symptoms. | Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks |
| Patient-reported bladder function | Measurement of change in bladder function using the Neurogenic Bladder Symptom Score. Answers to qualitative questions are rated from 0 to 5, with a higher number indicating more problematic symptoms, and totaled for a score which categorizes severity of neurogenic bladder symptoms. | Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks |
| Male patient-reported sexual function (1) | Measurement of change in erectile dysfunction using the Sexual Health Inventory for Men (SHIM). Answers to qualitative questions are rated from 0 to 5, with a higher number indicating better erectile function, and totaled for a score which categorizes severity of erectile dysfunction. | Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks |
| Male patient-reported sexual function (2) | Measurement of change in erectile dysfunction using the International Index for Erectile Function (IIEF). Answers to qualitative questions are rated from 0 to 5, with a higher number indicating better erectile function, and totaled for a score which categorizes severity of erectile dysfunction. | Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks |
| Female patient-reported sexual function | Measurement of change in sexual function using the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). Answers to qualitative questions are rated from 0 to 5, with a higher number indicating better sexual function, and totaled for a score which categorizes severity of sexual dysfunction. | Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks |
| Spasticity | Change in measurements of spasticity using the Spinal Cord Injury Spasticity Evaluation Tool (SCI-SET). Answers to qualitative questions are rated from -3 to +3, with a higher positive number indicating more helpful symptoms, and a lower negative number indicating more problematic symptoms. Scores are totaled for a score which categorizes the overall positive or negative impact of a subject's spasticity symptoms. | Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks |
| Neurostimulation user experience | Rating of the subject's perception of individual aspects of spinal stimulation using the User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ), a survey including 26 descriptive terms and their antonyms. A scoring scale ranging from 1 to 7 determines how closely the subject feels the term or its antonym applies to the intervention, with lower numbers indicating agreement with the term, and higher numbers indicating agreement with the antonym. | At study completion, an average of 4 weeks |
| Overground ambulation [as appropriate to the subject] (1) | Measurement of changes in severity of walking impairment as measured by the Walking Index for Spinal Cord Injury (WISCI II). Trainers combine the type of assistive device(s) used, use or no use of orthotic braces, number of persons assisting ambulation, and distance subject is able to walk (up to 10 meters), into a single score ranging from 0 to 20, with a lower number indicating more severe impairment. | Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks |
| Overground ambulation [as appropriate to the subject] (2) | Measurement of changes in overground mobility as measured by the Modified 6 Minute Walk Test. Trainers will assess the distance in meters which the subject can cover in 6 minutes, with a greater distance characterizing better overground mobility. | Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks |
| Balance [as appropriate to the subject] (2) | Measurement of changes in ability to perform 14 activities of daily life requiring balance using the Berg Balance Scale. Trainers will assess capabilities in all categories on a 0 to 4 scale, with a higher number indicating greater capability, and total the scores, with a higher total score indicating greater overall balance. | Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks |
| Balance (1) | Measurement of changes in basic trunk stability using the Modified Functional Reach Test. Trainers will measure the distance in centimeters the subject can reach forward unsupported without losing trunk stability, with a greater distance indicating greater trunk stability. | Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks |
| Exertion | Measurement of change in the subject's psychophysiological exertion using the Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion. Subjects rate the amount of exertion they are experiencing on a rating scale of 6 to 20, with a higher number indicating more exertion. | Through study completion, an average of 4 weeks |
