Abstract
Cervical hemi-contusion SCI led to persistent changes in MEPs & SEPs of the ipsilateral forelimb, ipsilateral impairment in motor function and unilateral cord tissue damage. Reliable electrophysiology assessment was obtained in chronic phase due to unstable MEPs & SEPs of bilateral forelimb immediately after injury, which might reflect the underlying pathological processes. The present study further confirmed the link of the MEPs to the behavioral outcomes, supporting the longitudinal electrophysiology assessment for neurological impairment after SCI.
