FEFU scientists suggest reconsidering existing treatment protocol for severe spinal cord trauma Scientists from Far Eastern Federal University (FEFU) together with leading international experts suggest reconsidering the existing treatment protocol for severe spasticity, one of the main complications after spinal cord injury with partial spinal cord disruption. Spasticity aggravates a patient s state and dramatically reduces the prospects of rehabilitation. The new treatment protocol has been run at FEFU Medical Center. A related article was published in the Progress in Brain Research journal. A team from FEFU developed a protocol helping to learn the eligibility of disabled patients with spinal cord trauma and severe spasticity for the implantation of a spinal cord stimulator or an Intrathecal Baclofen infusion pump. For the first time, these alternative methodologies were compared in two experimental groups.
