Beyond rehabilitation: a qualitative exploration of sport participation context and FES-cycling user experience in spinal cord injury.

A qualitative study explored how individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) experience functional electrical stimulation (FES) cycling when used in sport and recreational settings, rather than solely in clinical rehabilitation. Researchers found that the context of participation meaningfully shaped user experience, suggesting that integrating FES cycling into sport environments may offer benefits beyond traditional therapy goals. These findings have implications for how PTs and rehabilitation teams design and recommend FES cycling programs for the SCI population.
