This study reports volitional motor outcomes in 20 individuals with clinically diagnosed motor complete spinal cord injury who underwent implantation of a spinal cord epidural stimulation unit. All participants were able to move at least one joint voluntarily in the presence of epidural stimulation. The extent of voluntary outcomes correlated with the percentage coverage of the lumbosacral enlargement by the electrode array.
