This study will evaluate a method to optimize parameter settings in epidural spinal cord stimulation used to recover lower extremity volitional movement. The study will also characterize improvement in autonomic function (such as blood pressure control) and other functions related to spinal cord injury.
The aim of this study is to assess the safety and the feasibility of two versions of TWIICE Rise for exoskeleton-assisted ambulation in patients with a spinal cord injury. This study is done in two phases: The first phase evaluates the safety and feasibility of TWIICE Rise 0.0 with 5 …
The DOSED clinical study evaluates the safety and utility of a novel delivery device to deliver LCTOPC1, a cell therapy, to the spinal cord of patients with a spinal cord injury (SCI). LCTOPC1 is designed to replace or support cells that are absent or dysfunctional due to traumatic injury, with …
Proprioceptive deficits in degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) is a progressive neurological deficits in somatosensory and motor function which affects the body balance and motor control. DCM usually presents with body incoordination, hand clumsiness and gait disturbance associated with proprioceptive dysfunction that hinders the physical performance and functions. In this study, …
Recent evidence has demonstrated a high rate of undiagnosed cervical myelopathy in patients presenting with hip fractures from a ground level fall. Identification and treatment of cervical myelopathy can help prevent falls and future fragility fractures. The purpose of this study is to screen ground level fall hip fracture patients …
Most patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) develop neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD), one of the most devastating sequelae of SCI which ultimately can lead to renal failure. We urgently need an intervention that prevents NLUTD before irreversible damage occurs. Neuromodulation procedures are a promising avenue so that we …
As a leading cause of disability worldwide, chronic low back pain (cLBP) represents a significant medical and socioeconomic problem with estimated health care spending of $87 billion/annually. The efficacy of dorsal column electrical stimulation to inhibit pain was first described over 50 years ago. Since then, several large clinical trials …
Spinal cord stimulation modulates the nervous system to effectively block pain signals originating from the back and legs. Spinal cord stimulation has been shown to improve chronic pain, improve quality of life, and reduce disability. Unfortunately, spinal cord stimulation has a high trial failure rate and a high long-term failure …
The goal of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of Vibrant capsules in spinal cord injury patients with neurogenic bowel.
Observational, prospective, single-center to assess neuronal activation accuracy and stimulation sensation in patients with closed-loop spinal cord stimulation therapy.
