Study Summary
The goal of this study is to understand how transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) waveform, modulation frequency, and stimulation location impact lower extremity muscle activation and participant comfort in adults without neurologic conditions.
Primary Outcome
The RMT is the minimum intensity of stimulation required to evoke a motor response in the lower-limb muscles while the subject is at rest.
Interventions
- DEVICE Spinal motor evoked responses (sMERs)
- DEVICE Continuous stimulation tolerance
