Methods for the treatment of CNS damage are described, and include inducing in a subject in need of such treatment, a therapeutically effective amount of functional electronic stimulation (FES) sufficient to evoke patterned movement in the subject~s muscles, the control of which has been affected by the CNS damage. The induction of FES-evoked patterned movement at least partially restores lost motor and sensory function, and stimulates regeneration of neural progenitor cells in the subject patient.

Cette invention concerne des méthodes de traitement de dégâts du système nerveux central consistant à appliquer à un sujet nécessitant un tels traitement une dose thérapeutiquement efficace de stimulation électronique fonctionnelle (FES) suffisante pour évoquer un mouvement type dans les muscles du sujet dont la maîtrise a été atteinte par des dégâts occasionnés au système nerveux central. Le déclenchement du mouvement type par stimulation électronique fonctionnelle permet de restaurer au moins partiellement la fonction motrice et sensorielle et de stimuler la régénération de cellules souches neuronales chez le patient.
