Spinal Cord Stimulation and Training
This study will help the investigators better understand the changes in short-term excitability and long-term plasticity of corticospinal, reticulospinal and spinal neural circuits and how the changes impact the improvements of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) mediated motor function.
Spinal Cord Stimulation for Parkinsonism
Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) is a newly emerged neuromodulation technique in recent years. It is now a mature technique in the treatment of chronic pain and is generally accepted by patients because of its non-destructive and reversible nature, few complications, no side effects, and avoidance of unnecessary surgical procedures. Combining …
Spinal Cord Injury Neurorecovery Collaboration
SCINC is an adaptive design Master protocol that seeks to determine if there is "sufficient promise" of beneficial effect of treatment combinations to enhance motor recovery in pre-specified strata of people with a spinal cord injury.
Effects of Spinal Cord Stimulation
The goal of this interventional study is to test effects of spinal cord stimulation in patients receiving treatment for their chronic pain. The main question of the study is: • What is the effect of spinal cord stimulation when compared to placebo? Participants will rate their pain with their usual …
Cervical Spinal Cord Associative Plasticity
Associative plasticity has been used to promote functional recovery from conditions affecting movement. Prior work from the Carmel laboratory has shown that paired associative stimulation protocols timed to converge in the cervical spinal cord induce significantly larger upper limb motor responses than if timed to converge in the motor cortex. …
Locomotor Training With Testosterone to Promote Bone and Muscle Health After Spinal Cord Injury
This pilot study will determine the feasibility of implementing a combinatory rehabilitation strategy involving testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) with locomotor training (LT; walking on a treadmill with assistance and overground walking) in men with testosterone deficiency and walking dysfunction after incomplete or complete spinal cord injury. The investigators hypothesize that …
Brain Controlled Spinal Cord Stimulation in Participants With Cervical Spinal Cord Injury for Upper Limb Rehabilitation
Cervical spinal cord stimulation can elicit arm and hand movements through recruitment of proprioceptive neurons in the dorsal roots. In participants with cervical spinal cord injury, the spare roots bellow the lesion can be used to reactivate motor function. Decoding of motor intentions can be achieved through implantable electrocorticography (ECoG) …
Spinal Cord Associative Plasticity for ALS
Veterans are at higher risk than non-Veterans of falling ill with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The investigators have shown that synchronized stimulation over the brain and cervical spinal cord can temporarily strengthen weakened nerve circuits between the brain and hand muscles in people with ALS. The current proposal will take …
Improving Spinal Cord Stimulation With ECAPS
The purpose of this study will be to investigate the optimization of spinal cord stimulation with ECAPs in patients with spinal cord implants.
Spinal Cord Injury Neuroprotection With Glyburide
To assess the safety and efficacy of using oral Glyburide (Diabeta) as a neuroprotective agent in patients with acute cervical or thoracic traumatic spinal cord injury.
