Study Summary

The aim of this study is to determine the effects of rehabilitation on dexterous hand movements and cortical motor map changes in tetraplegic patients following nerve transfer surgery. The working hypothesis is that robot-assisted, intensive rehabilitation will support the return of hand and arm function and strengthen the cortical representations of targeted muscles. The investigators will assess this through TMS mapping and clinical measures of hand and arm function.

Primary Outcome

The Box and Blocks test measures how many blocks a person can grasp and transfer in one minute. A higher score is associated with better hand function.

Interventions

  • DEVICE Upper limb robotic training
  • PROCEDURE Nerve transfer surgery
