METHOD FOR RECONSTRUCTING SENSITIVE AND MOTOR FUNCTION AND, ALSO, THE FUNCTION OF PELVIC ORGANS AT AFFECTED SPINAL CORD Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC A61N1/32 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: the present innovation deals with treating patients with the lesion of spinal cord of uninflammatory character. Electrostimulation should be carried out in three stages: at the first stage due to applying electrodes: anode-needle-electrode should be introduced into inter-spinous space along the middle line being below the site of lesion, and cutaneous electrode-cathode should be located in frontal-parietal area, in projection of motor and promotor cerebral areas. At the second stage, electrostimulation should be conducted by applying electrodes: cathode-needle-electrode by introducing into inter-spinous space along the middle line being above the site of lesion, and cutaneous electrode-anode should be located in projection of a nerve bundle under stimulation. At the third stage electrostimulation should be carried out by changing the polarity of electrodes and applying: electrodes anode-needle-electrode to be kept in inter-spinous space along the middle line being above the site of lesion, and cutaneous electrode-cathode should be located above affected muscles or in areas of affected sensitivity. The innovation enables to accelerate the reconstruction of the functions of spinal cord at its keeping.

EFFECT: higher efficiency of reconstruction.
