Spinal cord injuries (SCIs) often lead to impairment of the respiratory system and,
consequently, restrictive respiratory changes. Paresis or paralysis of the respiratory muscles …

Diaphragm pacing is a clinically useful modality providing artificial ventilatory support in
patients with ventilator dependent spinal cord injury. Since this technique is successful in …

Respiratory insufficiency is a leading cause of death due to drug overdose or neuromuscular
disease. We hypothesized that a stimulation paradigm using temporal interference (TI) could …

(1) Background: Respiratory muscle weakness is common following cervical spinal cord
injury (cSCI). Transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) promotes the motor recovery of …

Cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) results in permanent life-altering sensorimotor deficits,
among which impaired breathing is one of the most devastating and life-threatening. While …

The study of respiratory plasticity in animal models spans decades. At the bench,
researchers use an array of techniques aimed at harnessing the power of plasticity within …

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a complex and devastating condition characterized by disruption
of descending, ascending, and intrinsic spinal circuitry resulting in chronic neurologic …

As demonstrated in a canine model, high frequency spinal cord stimulation (HF-SCS) is a
novel and more physiologic method of electrical activation of the inspiratory muscles …

Traumatic cervical spinal cord injury (cSCI) can lead to damage of bulbospinal pathways to
the respiratory motor nuclei and consequent life-threatening respiratory insufficiency due to …

High frequency spinal cord stimulation (HF-SCS) is a method of inspiratory muscle activation
resulting in phrenic motoneuron activation via stimulation of spinal cord pathways. The …
