Non-invasive Brain Stimulation Paired With FES Cycling Post SCI
Sponsor: Western University, Canada
Summary
This project is randomized controlled trial which will explore the effect of pairing repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) with Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) Cycling on lower extremity function in people with incomplete spinal cord injury and compare the effects to each one of these interventions alone.
