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 …
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 …
Safety, Feasibility, and Efficacy of TSCS on Stabilizing Blood Pressure for Acute Inpatients With SCI
Current forms of pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatments for hypotension and orthostatic hypotension (OH) remain inadequate during acute inpatient rehabilitation (AIR) following a traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). A critical need exists for the identification of safe, practical, and effective treatment options that stabilize blood pressure (BP) after traumatic SCI. Recent …
ARC Therapy to Restore Hemodynamic Stability and Trunk Control in People With Spinal Cord Injury
The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate the safety and preliminary effectiveness of the ARC-IM Therapy to improve hemodynamic management in people with sub-acute or chronic spinal cord injury. Participants will be implanted with the ARC-IM Thoracic System which aim to deliver, at the low thoracic level, targeted …
Cardiovascular Function and Response to Stimulation Within the First Year After Spinal Cord Injury
The study aims to explore how cardiovascular function changes in the first year after a spinal cord injury, and to see how different treatments, like spinal stimulation through the skin (transcutaneous spinal stimulation), affect blood pressure. The main questions are: How does stimulation affect blood pressure over the year? What …
VR Mindfulness Training for Veterans With SCI
This study involves delivering a mindfulness program that was developed for Veterans called VA Compassionate Awareness Learning Module (VA CALM) to Veterans with spinal cord injuries (SCI) to develop accommodations to make the VA CALM program more accessible for those with SCI. It will involve delivering the unmodified curriculum to …
Feasibility of the BrainGate2 Neural Interface System in Persons With Tetraplegia (BG-Tablet-01)
People with brainstem stroke, advanced amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease), or other disorders can become unable to move or speak despite being awake and alert. In this project, the investigators seek to further translate knowledge about interpreting brain signals related to movement, and to further …
Spinal Cord Lesion Detection in Multiple Sclerosis Using Novel MRI Sequences
This study is to evaluate the sensitivity and intra-/inter-observer agreement of the averaged magnetization inversion recovery acquisitions (AMIRA) in spinal cord (SC) Multiple sclerosis (MS) lesion detection and to evaluate the additional clinical value of this sequence in clinical settings.
Prevention of Thromboembolism Using Apixaban vs Enoxaparin Following Spinal Cord Injury
Currently, Enoxaparin is the usual prophylactic anticoagulant treatment at the acute and sub-acute phases of spinal cord injury (SCI). Patients at the sub-acute phase of SCI (rehabilitation) will be given either Enoxaparin 40 mg/day (control) or Apixaban 2.5-5 mg twice a day. Apixaban dose will be determined by the treating …
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy in Neuropathic Painful Spinal Cord Injury Patients
The aim of our study is to investigate the effect of high-frequency Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation(rTMS) therapy applied to the dorsolateral PFC (DLPFC) area on neuropathic pain in patients with spinal cord injury. In this area, there are very few studies on the effectiveness of rTMS treatment added to medical …
