Medical facilities and researchers in Spain are advancing methods for treating spinal cord injuries and neurological conditions. In Cáceres, the Hospital San Pedro de Alcántara has implemented exoskeleton technology to assist with gait training and mobility, leading to increased specialized staffing. Simultaneously, the Hospital Nacional de Parapléjicos has focused on therapeutic sports and clinical measurement tools.

Researchers at the Hospital Nacional de Parapléjicos have developed the Integrated Neurological Change Score (INCS), a tool designed to more accurately track motor and sensory recovery. This method aims to prevent the ‘ceiling effect’ found in standard scales and has been utilized in international clinical trials to monitor axonal repair and neurological evolution.
