The investigators plan to 1. verify that spinal cord stimulation increases hip muscle strength in subjects with SMA, 2. verify that spinal cord stimulation improves motor control in subjects with SMA, 3. verify that spinal cord stimulation induces measurable changes in spinal circuits and motoneuron recruitment properties in the 29 day course of implantation.
Good to know: Potential benefits are defined as outcomes that are being measured during and/or after the trial.
