This study aims to determine whether wheelchair treadmill exercises improve trunk balance and stability compared to conventional wheelchair exercises. Trunk balance is essential for mobility, transfers, and daily activities in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). The study includes individuals with SCI who use manual wheelchairs. Participants will be randomly …
This study aimed to determine whether cervical spinal cord epidural electrical stimulation (EES) can activate upper-limb muscles in individuals with spinal cord injury.
The aim of this study is to investigate the potential of transcutaneous neuromodulation (TNM) to treat slow colonic transit and constipation, termed the Neurogenic bowel dysfunction (NBD), in people with SCI. In this project, the study team will investigate the impact of an active treatment intervention vs. a sham control …
This pilot study aims to evaluate the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a wearable rhythmic auditory stimulation system, MedRhythms, for improving gait parameters in patients with motor incomplete SCI. Up to 15 participants aged 18 years or older with non-progressive SCI will be enrolled. Participants will complete supervised gait training …
People with incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI) often have some preserved movement and may regain walking ability, but recovery can be limited, and more effective rehabilitation approaches are needed.The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if high-intensity walking rehabilitation can improve walking recovery and overall neurological recovery in …
This prospective, multicenter, single-arm clinical trial will enroll subjects with tetraplegia secondary to spinal cord injury. An implantable brain-computer interface system for compensatory hand motor function will be used to reconstruct upper-limb function, so as to evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of this device in achieving upper-limb functional replacement.
This study aims to evaluate how different doses of acute intermittent hypoxia (AIH) affect lower-limb strength, reaction time, and responsiveness in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). The objective is to identify the dose that most effectively improves motor output while also examining parameters that may account for variability in …
This study will examine how the brain, spinal cord, and muscles communicate in people with spinal cord injury. Researchers will use noninvasive brain and muscle recordings together with spinal electrical recordings to better understand how epidural spinal cord stimulation (EES) affects nerve function. The results may help develop more effective …
To achieve our specific aims and hypotheses we will conduct a parallel group mixed methods randomized control trial comparing participation in the TEEMS program with exercise via asynchronous video library equivalent (control). The use of mixed methods will allow for the integration of quantitative findings with the qualitative, lived perspective …
This is a prospective, open-label, multi-center, single-arm study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an implantable wireless brain-machine interface (BMI) system in patients with spinal cord injury. Eligible participants will undergo screening after signing informed consent, followed by BMI system implantation. Follow-up visits will be conducted postoperatively to assess …
