Epidural Stimulation after Spinal Cord Injury: Restoration of Motor and Autonomic Function

The procedure has been done in a small number of people with SCI, but some who have had the surgery have experienced movement in areas where they previously had no movement, and improvements in other areas such as bowel, bladder, sexual, and blood pressure function.
