“…Lin and colleagues [135–137] conducted a series of investigations to determine the effectiveness of functional magnetic stimulation as a method for restoring maximal expiratory pressure with the associated restoration of cough. They located the coil along the lower thoracic spine (between spinal processes T 6 –T 12 ) to stimulate expiratory muscles and produced increasing maximal expiratory pressure, as well as forced expiratory flow [138].…”

Pulmonary complications associated with persistent respiratory muscle weakness, paralysis, and spasticity are among the most important problems faced by patients with spinal cord injury when lack of muscle strength and disorganization of reciprocal respiratory muscle control lead to breathing insufficiency. This review describes the mechanisms of the respiratory motor control and its change in individuals with spinal cord injury, methods by which respiratory function is measured, and rehabilitative treatment used to restore respiratory function in those who have experienced such injury.

“…Transcutaneous magnetic stimulation appears to be painless and is typically well-tolerated, including in persons with allodynia and cutaneous hypersensitivity [42]. Magnetic SCS has seen minimal use in persons and animal models of SCI; however, magnetic SCS has demonstrated effectiveness in the restoration of respiratory function [43,44], gastric function [45], and antinociception [46].…”

Spinal cord stimulation for the restoration of bladder function after spinal cord injury

Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in the inability to empty the bladder voluntarily, and neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) and detrusor sphincter dyssynergia (DSD) negatively impact both the health and quality of life of persons with SCI. Current approaches to treat bladder dysfunction in persons with SCI, including self-catheterisation and anticholinergic medications, are inadequate, and novel approaches are required to restore continence with increased bladder capacity, as well as to provide predictable and efficient on-demand voiding. Improvements in bladder function following SCI have been documented using a number of different modalities of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) in both persons with SCI and animal models, including SCS alone or SCS with concomitant activity-based training. Improvements include increased volitional voiding, voided volumes, bladder capacity, and quality of life, as well as decreases in NDO and DSD. Further, SCS is a well-developed therapy for chronic pain, and existing Food And Drug Administration (FDA)-approved devices provide a clear pathway to sustainable commercial availability and impact. However, the effective stimulation parameters and the appropriate timing and location of stimulation for SCS-mediated restoration of bladder function require further study, and studies are needed to determine underlying mechanisms of action.

Electromagnetic ventilation: First evaluation of a new method for artificial ventilation in humans

et al. 2010

Current methods of artificial ventilation cannot prevent diverse problems associated with mechanical ventilation. In contrast to all current forms of mechanical ventilation, electromagnetic stimulation can activate respiratory muscles directly. However, it is not known if and to what extent electromagnetic stimulation can ventilate humans. In 10 volunteers we stimulated the lateral neck using magnetic stimulators. Over 63 s we stimulated nine times with a frequency of 25 HZ for 1.1 s using 600 V, 900 V, and 1,200 V. The minimum stimulation time for each volunteer was 9 min. A Capnomac monitor measured minute ventilation. Electromagnetic stimulation was well tolerated and safe. Bilateral stimulation with 600 V achieved considerable minute ventilation (median +/- SD, 7.2 +/- 3.4 L/min) that increased at higher voltage levels (P < 0.0001). 900 V achieved sufficient minute ventilation in all volunteers (11.5 +/- 5.0 L/min; 1200 V, 14.0 +/- 4.9 L/min). This first evaluation of electromagnetic ventilation demonstrates that it can be used to ventilate humans sufficiently. This method may be developed to a new mode of ventilation.
