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. …
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 …
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 …
Effect of TMS on Neuropathic Pain for Patients With Sci
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of rTMS targeting the anterior cingulate cortex, another stimulation site that may be effective in the treatment of neuropathic pain, and to compare it with motor cortex stimulation.
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 …
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 …
Locomotor Function Following Transcutaneous Electrical Spinal Cord Stimulation in Individuals With Hemiplegic Stroke
This study has two interventional components, the first is a cross-over design and the second is a randomized control trial. Both will evaluate the effectiveness of transcutaneous (non-invasive) spinal cord stimulation on gait and balance function for individuals with hemiplegia due to stroke.
Calcitonin Therapy on Incidence and Severity of Neuropathic Pain After Spinal Cord Injury
This prospective randomized double blinded study will be conducted to evaluate the effect of early pharmacologic intervention with calcitonin on the incidence or the severity of neuropathic pain after spinal cord injury
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 …
Motor & Autonomic Concomitant Health Improvements With Neuromodulation & Exercise Training: An SCI RCT
Spinal cord injury (SCI) disrupts many aspects of life, including the loss of volitional movement and involuntary control of bodily functions; both crucial functional recovery priorities for this population. Mobility impairments and secondary complications limit an individual's ability to exercise, a behavior known to have wide-ranging functional and health benefits. …
