The effect of transtraumatic epidural electrostimulation (TEES) above (T5) and below (L2) spinal cord injury in the lower thoracic region (T8-T9) in combination with treadmill exercise in pigs was evaluated using electrophysiological examination methods and behavioral tests. Two weeks after spinal cord injury, motor evoked potentials of m. soleus were recorded during electrostimulation at the level of T5 and L2 segments, which indicated activation of spinal cord structures above and below the focus of injury. After 6 weeks of TEES in combination with physical training, restoration of the characteristics of M-response and H-reflex of the soleus muscle in response to stimulation of the sciatic nerve, improvement of joint mobility, and appearance of voluntary motor activity in the hindlimbs were observed. Neuromodulation with TEES had been proven to be an effective way to stimulate posttraumatic spinal cord regeneration and can be used in the development of a neurorehabilitation protocol for patients with spinal cord injury.
