Below the Belt: Non-invasive Neuromodulation to Treat Bladder, Bowel, and Sexual Dysfunction Following Spinal Cord Injury
Recent findings have demonstrated that electrical stimulation to the spinal cord (i.e. implanted electrodes) can significantly recover bladder, bowel, and sexual function after injury. While promising, a major drawback is that individuals must undergo a highly invasive and expensive surgical procedure to implant the stimulator on top of the spinal …
Early Intervention for Information Processing Speed Deficits in Acute SCI: A Pilot Study
This study seeks to conduct a pilot study to test whether a cognitive training program can improve processing speed abilities in individuals with acute traumatic spinal cord injury.
A Pilot RCT to Improve Cognitive Processing Speed in Acute SCI
This study seeks conduct a pilot study to test whether a cognitive training program can improve processing speed abilities in individuals with acute traumatic spinal cord injury.
Mechanisms and Outcome-Prognostication for Paresthesia-based and -Free Spinal Cord Stimulation
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) relies on stimulation of pain-relieving pathways in the spinal cord to treat chronic neuropathic pain. Traditional paresthesia-based SCS (PB-SCS) relies on providing analgesia through stimulation of spinal cord dorsal columns but it is often associated with attenuation of analgesic benefit and lack of acceptance of paresthesias. …
Utility of Multisensory Body-Representation in Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) With Pain
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of bodily illusions combined with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on neuropathic pain symptoms and sensory functions in participants with spinal cord injury (SCI) and neuropathic pain.
Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy in Spinal Cord Injury Related Neuropathic Pain
The aim of our study is to investigate the effect of different protocols of high-frequency Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) therapy added to the rehabilitation program on neuropathic pain,depression, quality of life and quality of sleep compared to each other and placebo group in participants with spinal cord injury.
Teriflunomide in HTLV-1 Associated Myelopathy/Tropical Spastic Paraparesis
Background HTLV-1 associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is a rare, progressive disease. It occurs in some people infected with the HTLV-1 virus. It leads to weakness in the lower limbs and other serious problems. It has no treatment. Teriflunomide is a drug used to treat multiple sclerosis. It reduces immune …
Telenutrition for Individuals With SCI
This study will provide nutrition counseling via FaceTime on an iPad to persons with traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) who are overweight or obese and are at least one-year post-injury. Nutrition counseling may help participants to develop eating behaviors that match the participants' needs and help improve heart health. The …
Operant Conditioning of Spinal Reflexes Training System--Reflex Operant Down Conditioning
The purpose of this study is to validate the capacity of a reflex training system to change the size of the targeted reflex. For this, the researchers are recruiting 25 individuals with chronic incomplete SCI who have spasticity in the leg to participate in the reflex training procedure. The study …
Novel Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase Inhibitor for Neuropathic Pain in Patients With Spinal Cord Injury
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate safety and tolerability of multiple oral doses of EC5026 in male and female patients with neuropathic pain due to spinal cord injury. The main question it aims to answer is whether EC5026 is safe and well tolerated in SCI patients with …
