Spinal Cord Monitoring in Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common demyelinating disease of the central nervous system and the most common cause of non-traumatic neurological disability in young adults. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most important paraclinical investigation used in the diagnosis and monitoring of the disease. In the past years, spinal …
Spinal Cord Stimulation for Intractable Mononeuropathy
Rationale: For patients with mononeuropathy, literature has shown that spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an effective therapy for patients who are therapy-resistant to more conventional treatments. However, there is a strong need for higher quality evidence to determine the place of this therapy in this target group. Before conducting a …
Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation Home Study
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to examine the safety and feasibility of SCONE as home based therapy for orthostatic hypotension and bowel dysfunction in individuals with spinal cord injury or multiple system atrophy. The main aims of the study are: To establish a safe protocol for home-based …
Spatiotemporal tSCS in Spinal Cord Injury
Spinal cord injury leads to long-lasting impairment, and currently, there is no cure for paralysis. Although transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation has shown promising results in recovering lost movements, its poor selectivity in muscle recruitment compared to invasive approaches limits the type of rehabilitation exercises that can be practiced. This project …
Enhancing Recovery in Non-Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury
The investigators have spent the last decade uncovering unique metabolic and functional abnormalities in the brains of patients with spinal cord compression. Degenerative spinal cord compression represents a unique model of reversible spinal cord injury. In the investigator's previous work, they have demonstrated that cortical reorganization and recruitment is associated …
Finding the Best Combination of Brain and Spinal Cord Stimulation With Hand Training After Spinal Cord Injury
While physical exercise remains the foundation for any rehabilitation therapy, the team seeks to improve the benefits of exercise by combining it with the concept of "Fire Together, Wire Together" - when brain stimulation is synchronized with spinal cord stimulation, nerve circuits in the spinal cord strengthen - a phenomenon …
Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy Repository
To create a research repository of patients with known degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) and a control cohort of subjects who have non-myelopathic spinal disease. This repository will be used to assess functional and/or biological measures that may allow for improved prediction of symptomatic progression and response to treatment in patients …
Validity of the Turkish Translation of the Modified JOA
Degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) is the most common cause of non-traumatic spinal cord dysfunction in adults and may lead to progressive motor, sensory, and autonomic impairment. Accurate and standardized assessment of neurological function is essential for clinical decision-making, prognostic evaluation, and comparison of treatment outcomes. The Modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association …
Diabetic Neuropathy in Spinal Cord Stimulator Patients
The objective of this study is to assess the effect Spinal Cord Stimulators have toward improving vascular changes of diabetes mellitus in patients eligible for SCS placement based on their condition of painful diabetic neuropathy; we will evaluate improving their disability and quality of life, improving micro-circulatory changes induced by …
Exoskeleton and Spinal Cord Stimulation for SCI
The overall aim of this project is to assess the effect of combining transcutaneous lumbosacral stimulation (TLS) during Exoskeleton Assisted Walking (EAW) compared to EAW alone without stimulation on walking recovery.
