Record History

  1. Minor Study First Submitted
This study is to elucidate whether hyperexcitability of the cortico-reticulospinal tract leads to abnormal co-contraction and spasticity of elbow flexors in persons with cervical cervical spinal cord injury. By measuring the supplementary motor area (SMA) regulation of the StartReact response, it is possible to quantify whether the cortico-reticular pathway is excessively active or weakened in these persons. Participants will 1. Be assessed for upper limb function 2. Receive motor evoked potential of tested biceps muscle 3. Receive a standard StartReact paradigm to measure the reticulospinal excitability. 4. Received a conditioning-test paradigm to assess corticoreticular excitability. 5. Conduct a sustained isometric elbow extension task
