Outcome assessments highly valued by responders included surface electromyographic (EMG) measurements of volitional muscle activity, transspinal evoked potentials, medications taken, and assessment for discomplete injury. Outcome measures deemed high in feasibility included those focused on clinical sensorimotor impairment via the International Standards for the Neurological Classification of SCI (ISNCSCI), EMG assessments of volitional activity, transspinal evoked potentials, general functional assessment via the SCI Independence Measure, and medications taken. Outcome measures most often used included EMG assessment of volitional activity, transspinal evoked potentials, ISNCSCI examination, spasticity assessment, medications taken, peripheral nerve conduction studies, and assessments for discomplete SCI.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Survey outcomes provide insights into researchers\u2019 opinions on the value and feasibility of specific assessments for SCI clinical research with transspinal stimulation.
