简要总结
The purpose of this research is to support the clinical value of the Cionic Neural Sleeve for individuals diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS).
详细描述
The randomized within-participants crossover 12-week study aims to demonstrate the clinical impact of the Cionic Neural Sleeve for individuals diagnosed with MS.
Physical measurements, performance-based tests, and questionnaire responses will be recorded. These include physical activity recorded by the Cionic Neural Sleeve; in-person tests measuring disability, spasticity and balance; and questionnaires gauging perceived walking ability, quality of life, and physical and psychological impact of MS.
All participants will be assigned a Cionic Neural Sleeve on the most impacted leg for 6 weeks, and prescribed a home-based intervention of 15 minutes of walking for 5 days a week for 12 weeks. The Cionic Neural Sleeve will be worn for 6 weeks of the study while following the walking program.
Participants will be randomized to one of two groups: A or B. Group A will follow the walking program and wear the Neural Sleeve to receive stimulation assisted walking from the Neural Sleeve for 6 weeks. Group B will follow the walking program for 6 weeks. After 6 weeks, participants in each group will cross over to the other group.

- •Inability to ambulate with the sleeve in place of an ankle foot orthosis (AFO)/knee ankle foot orthosis (KAFO) if utilized
- •History of falls greater than once a week
- •No use of FES devices in the past year
- •Demand-type cardiac pacemaker or defibrillator
- •Malignant tumor in the impacted or more impacted leg
- •Existing thrombosis in the impacted or more impacted leg
- •Fracture or dislocation in the impacted or more impacted leg that could be adversely affected by motion from stimulation
结局指标
主要结局
Change in Gait Speed
时间窗: Day 0, Week 6, Week 12
The Timed 25-Foot Walk Test (T25FWT) to record duration of time to walk a distance of 25 feet, measured in seconds. The score is the average of two successive trials.
Change in Perceived Walking Ability
时间窗: Day 0, Week 6, Week 12
Multiple Sclerosis Walking Scale-12 (MSWS-12) to measure perceived impact of MS on walking ability, measured by score. Scores on the MSWS-12 range from 12-60 and transformed to a scale with a range from 0 to 100, with high scores indicative of a greater impact of MS on walking.
Change in MS Disability
时间窗: Day 0, Week 6, Week 12
A 9-item survey, Patient-Determined Disease Steps (PDDS), will measure of disability status in individuals with MS. The PDDS ranges from 0 to 8, with higher values indicative of higher levels of disability.
Amount of Daily Walking/Activity Level
时间窗: During allocation to receive the functional electrical stimulation arm
Collected by the usage log of the device, measured in steps per day
Duration of Daily Walking/Activity Level
时间窗: During allocation to receive the functional electrical stimulation arm
Collected by the usage log of the device, measured in duration of activity.
