在这项临床研究中，我们报告了功能性电刺激对没有长腿支架（LLB）的截瘫患者行走的结果，根据Parastep方法。在本试验中纳入的13例完全神经病变的脊髓损伤患者中，12例在Parastep的帮助下进展到独立行走。平均步行距离76 m，最大步行距离350 m，平均步行速度0.2 m s（-1）。与长腿支架的情况相比，实际上大多数截瘫患者都放弃了长腿支架，长期在家使用似乎更重要。这种方法的公差是令人满意的。这种装置的心理益处是显著的。由此得出结论，该方法在脊髓损伤患者的长期治疗中，对于恢复站立和行走是有价值的。
In this clinical study, we report the results of functional electrical stimulation for the ambulation of paraplegic patients without long leg braces (LLB), according to the Parastep approach. Of 13 SCI patients with complete neurological lesions included in this trial, 12 progressed to independent ambulation with the aid of the Parastep. The average walking distance was 76 m, with a maximum of 350 m, and the mean speed 0.2 m s(-1). Compared to the situation with long leg braces, which in fact are given up by most paraplegic patients, long term home use seems to be much more important. Tolerance of this method is satisfactory. The psychological benefits of the device are remarkable. From this experience, it is concluded that this method is valuable for the restoration of standing and walking in the long term management of spinal cord injury patients.
