Abstract
About 300,000 people in Europe alone suffer from a spinal cord injury (SCI), with 11,000 new injuries per year [20]. SCI is caused primarily by traffic and work accidents, and an increasing percentage of the total population also develops SCI from diseases like infections or tumors. About 70% of SCI cases occur in men. 40% are tetraplegic patients with paralyses not only of the lower extremities (and hence restrictions in standing and walking) but also of the upper extremities, which makes it difficult or impossible for them to grasp.
