Description
Kathryn Noonan-Eaton and colleagues pair electric stimulation with activity training in injured children, in a case series from 2026. Neck level spinal cord injury in childhood limits arm and trunk function for life. Stimulation is well studied for legs, far less for arms in young patients.
Five children aged four to fifteen finished about fifty-four sessions each on average. All five gained trunk control points on the segment scale used for checks. Four of five improved arm scores, mostly on reach and hand to mouth tasks. Block moving scores also rose in four children on at least one side. No surprise harms arose during the combined program for any child.
