Is there any ongoing work a CWR on diaphragm pacing? I am currently
caring for 16 year old with complete C-2 quadriplegia secondary to a
cervical spine injury. She is completely ventilator-dependant. She is
only about two weeks out from her injury and may recover some function but
I doubt it. The literature is encouraging and I am considering venturing
into this in the future.
