Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* 16-70 years of age, inclusive * AIS A classification of traumatic spinal cord injury with a neurological level within C5-T1 inclusive * Recent injury * Non-penetrating SCI
Exclusion criteria
* Terminally ill subjects not likely to be able to participate in follow-up * Incomplete spinal cord injury (AIS B, C, D, and E injuries) * No identifiable intra-spinal cavity following myelotomy/irrigation in the contused spinal cord in which a Scaffold can be placed * Spinal cord injury associated with significant traumatic brain injury or coma that * Radiographic or visual evidence of parenchymal dissociation or anatomic transection as determined by the Investigator where the contusion completely bridges a full cross-section of the spinal cord * Subjects with spinal cord injuries directly due to gunshot, knife, or other penetrating wounds
