Recently our laboratory team focused on training five individuals with complete spinal cord injuries for an overground FES bike race in the 2016 Cybathlon held in Zurich Switzerland. A unique advantage team Cleveland had over other teams was the use of implanted pulse generators that provide more selective activation of muscles compared to standard surface stimulation. The advancements in muscle strength and endurance and ultimately cycling power our pilots made during this training period helped propel our competing pilot to win gold at the Cybathlon and allowed our pilots to ride their bikes outside within their communities. Such positive outcomes has encouraged us to further explore more widespread use of FES overground cycling as a rehabilitative tool for those with spinal cord injuries. This review will describes our approach to this race including information on the pilots, stimulation strategy, bike details and training program.
最近，我们的实验室团队专注于训练五名完全脊髓损伤患者，以参加在瑞士苏黎世举行的2016年国际辅助性运动赛中的地面功能性电刺激自行车比赛。克利夫兰团队相对于其他团队的一个独特优势是使用了植入式脉冲发生器，与标准的表面刺激相比，它能更有选择性地激活肌肉。在这段训练期间，我们的飞行员在肌肉力量、耐力以及最终的骑行功率方面取得的进步，帮助我们的参赛飞行员在国际辅助性运动赛中赢得了金牌，并使我们的飞行员能够在其社区内骑自行车外出。这些积极成果促使我们进一步探索更广泛地将地面功能性电刺激自行车作为脊髓损伤患者的康复工具。这篇综述将描述我们针对这场比赛的方法，包括有关飞行员、刺激策略、自行车细节和训练计划的信息。
