Interventions
- ARC-IM Therapy — DEVICEAll participants will be treated with ARC-IM Therapy. The ARC-IM Lumbar System is intended to deliver electrical impulses to the lumbosacral region of the spinal cord to support ambulatory functions in people with SCI.
Study Details
The EIGER study aims to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of ARC-IM Therapy (Epidural Electrical Stimulation) to support and promote recovery of ambulatory functions, such as walking, in people with subacute and chronic spinal cord injury.
