This study is evaluating a surgically implanted system called IST (Implanted Stimulator-Telemeter) for people with paralysis from conditions like spinal cord injuries or stroke. The IST system uses electrical stimulation to help with exercise, standing, stepping, and balance. To join, you must be between 21 and 75 years old, have skeletal maturity, and have paralysis that is not ventilator-dependent, affecting your trunk and/or lower limbs. Researchers will measure how well the device works and its technical performance by looking at changes in how long you can stand, how much weight you can bear while standing, and how far you can walk, from immediately after the intervention to 12 months later. The current status of this study is unclear.

Study design

This is an interventional study with a planned enrollment of 10 participants. It is not specified if it is randomized or blinded.

What's involved

You would undergo surgery to implant electrodes and the IST system, followed by training and rehabilitation with the system. This includes exercise, functional training, and laboratory assessments, with home-based training before discharge.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

Participants are followed at 6 and 12 months after discharge, and then annually thereafter.
