Cardiorespiratory Fitness Training in Patients with Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury
The goal of this exploratory randomized controlled trial is to assess the effect of a personalized training intervention during primary rehabilitation of 6 weeks on cardiorespiratory fitness in individuals with subacute (<6 months) spinal cord injury during primary rehabilitation and during follow-up. Secondary outcomes include the effect on gait assessments, …
Epidural Spinal Cord Stimulation for Lower-limb Impairment in Adrenomyeloneuropathy
Adrenal spinal neuropathy (AMN) is a rare X-linked genetic disease caused by mutations in the ABCD1 gene, and belongs to a special type of adrenal leukodystrophy. The patient's lower limb strength is weakened, the range of motion of the ankle joint is reduced, the hip flexors are weak and affect …
Synergistic Effect of Non-invasive Brain and Spinal Cord Stimulation
The goal of this clinical study is to investigate the potential synergy between non-invasive brain and spinal cord stimulation administered during a cognitive-motor task, in terms of their immediate effects on sensorimotor and cognitive functions after neurological injuries affecting the upper limb (cervical spinal cord injury and stroke). Secondary objectives …
Mild Intermittent Hypoxia: A Prophylactic for Autonomic Dysfunction in Individuals With Spinal Cord Injuries
The prevalence of autonomic dysfunction and sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is increased in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). The loss of autonomic control results in autonomic dysreflexia (AD) and orthostatic hypotension (OH) which explains the increase in cardiovascular related mortality in these Veterans. There is no effective prophylaxis for …
Sildenafil for Treatment of Urinary Incontinence in Patients With Spinal Cord Injuries
The goal of this study is to determine whether administration of sildenafil will decrease urine leakage in patients with spinal cord injuries.
The Impact of Expressive Emotional Writing on Facilitating Grief Resolution in Adults With Spinal Cord Injury
The aim of this study is to evaluate the therapeutic benefits of a 10-week online coach-guided EEWP on psychosocial health among adults with SCI.
Effect of Urethral Balloon Dilatation on Urinary Retention After Spinal Cord Injury
Trial Objectives: This clinical trial aims to explore whether ultrasound - guided urethral balloon dilation can effectively improve the micturition function of patients with urinary retention after spinal cord injury, and to evaluate the safety of this treatment method. The main questions it attempts to answer are: Can ultrasound - …
Endothelial Dysfunction After SCI
This study plans to learn how endothelial cells, single cell lining of blood vessels may be dysfunctional after a spinal cord injury. Endothelial dysfunction will be measured by the capacity of blood vessels to vasodilate (increase in size) and alter blood flow is lower in adults with a spinal cord …
Ultrasonographic Evaluation of Talar Cartilage Thickness in Patients With Spinal Cord Injury
Spinal cord injury patients often present with musculoskeletal comorbidities, including osteoarthritis. Early detection of cartilage damage is important for preventing osteoarthritis progression. This study aims to compare the talar cartilage thicknesses of spinal cord injury patients with healthy subjects. The secondary aim is to investigate a correlation between the talar …
BCI-Assisted SCS-EXS for Gait Optimization
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and technical feasibility of a novel brain-machine interface (BCI)-assisted spinal cord stimulation (SCS) and exoskeleton (EXS) system in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). The primary aim is to determine whether the BCI-SCS-EXS system can safely and effectively improve …
