Dr. Argyrios Stampas is an Associate Professor in the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth.
His fellowship in spinal cord injury (SCI) allowed him to incorporate electric stimulation in the outpatient rehabilitation of SCI. He has been able to take that education with him and use it in the inpatient rehabilitation setting. As a clinical researcher, he wants to advance the field of acute rehabilitation using electric stimulation in the acute period to prevent problems commonly found in chronic spinal cord injury, including neurogenic bladder, autonomic dysreflexia, and spasticity.
