Sleep Apnea in Paralympic Ontario-Resident aThletes With Spinal Cord Injury (SPORTS) Study
This single arm clinical trial will assess whether continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy in the management of moderate-to-severe sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBDs) among para-athletes living with cervical/thoracic, complete or incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI) is effective in improving cognitive impairment, in reducing fatigue, depression, anxiety, and overall quality of …
Brief Prolonged Exposure Therapy Versus Clinical Standard to Reduce Posttraumatic Stress Post Spinal Cord Injury
This study will examine the use brief prolonged exposure (Brief PE) therapy compared to standard clinical care to reduce posttraumatic distress among people who have had a spinal cord injury and are receiving rehabilitation in an inpatient setting.
Cortical Recording and Stimulating Array Brain-Machine Interface
The purpose of this research study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of using two CRS Arrays (microelectrodes) for long-term recording of brain motor cortex activity and microstimulation of brain sensory cortex.
A Feasible Smart Upper Limb Rehabilitation Model for Patients With Stroke and Spinal Cord Injuries
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effectiveness of the developed application and exoskeleton robot devices for home-based training in stroke patients and patients with spinal cord injuries. The application that uses an Internet of Things (IoT) platform to enable remote monitoring of rehabilitation progress by clinical …
Outcomes Post Treatment: Impact on Motor Impairment of Sleep Efficiency in SCI (OPTIMISE SCI Trial)
This randomized clinical trial will compare three groups of individuals with cervical/thoracic, complete or incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI) that will undergo: (i) early CPAP therapy in the management of moderate-to-severe sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBDs) among adults at 6 weeks after SCI; (ii) delayed CPAP therapy in the management of …
CAN-PRIME: Precise Robotically Implanted Brain-Computer Interface for the Control of External Devices
The CAN-PRIME Study is to test the safety and functionality of Neuralink's N1 Implant and R1 Robot in people who have difficulty moving their arms and legs (tetraparesis or tetraplegia). The N1 Implant is a small, wireless device placed in the skull. It connects to tiny threads inserted into the …
Hand and Arm Motor Recovery Via Non-invasive Electrical Spinal Cord Stimulation After Stroke
The recovery from a stroke is often incomplete. It is the leading cause of acquired permanent disability in the adult population. Persistent functional loss of the hand and arm contributes significantly to disability. However, the current standard of care to treat hand and arm movements are inadequate. There is an …
Cervical Spinal Cord Stimulation in Patients With Cerebral Vasospasm After Subarachnoid Haemorrhage: VasoStim Study
Cerebral vasospasm is characterized by a vasoconstriction of cerebral arteries causing a reduction of cerebral blood flow (CBF) and leading to ischemia and infarction of the brain parenchyma. Cerebral vasospasm is a serious complication of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) with high morbidity and overall mortality of 40-50%. Although the exact …
Non-invasive Electrical Spinal Cord Stimulation To Restore Upper Extremity Function in Multiple Sclerosis
Current disease-modifying therapies for multiple sclerosis (MS) aim to prevent the development of new lesions; unfortunately, no current FDA-approved therapies promote central nervous system (CNS) repair mechanisms. Thus, strategies to promote functional recovery from lesion-related deficits in adults with MS remain an unmet need. This is a pilot study designed …
Ultrasound for Quantifying Muscle Activation Elicited by Spinal Cord Stimulation and Functional Electrical Stimulation
Transcutaneous (non-invasive) spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) has been shown to facilitate volitional motor activity in patients with spinal cord injury. tSCS is known to activate the same neural structures as invasive SCS, meaning it may have the potential for functional restoration without an expensive surgical implant. Functional electrical stimulation (FES) …
