Spinal cord injury systems

Abstract

Devices, systems, and methods for treating a spinal cord injury. A spinal cord injury system may include a flexible lead, a temperature adjustment patch, a regenerative scaffold, and/or a bandage configured to promote repair at or across an injured segment of the spinal cord and/or restore neural communication. The flexible lead may have electrodes configured to deliver stimulation or sense signals and flexible zones configured to accommodate movement of the spinal cord. The temperature adjustment patch may have a cooling pad configured to reduce a local temperature at the injured region of the spinal cord to slow formation of scar tissue. The regenerative scaffold and bandage may include be used to fill and cover an injured area, enhance neural repair, and/or promote functional recovery.
