The Use of Functional Electrical Stimulation in Conjunction With Respiratory Muscle Training to Improve Unaided Cough in Individuals With Acute Spinal Cord Injury
The overall objective of this study is to improve unaided cough with abdominal and latissimus dorsi functional electrical stimulation in conjunction with respiratory muscle training in individuals with acute spinal cord injuries.
Phase 1b/2a Clinical Trial to Determine the Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of TZ-161 in Spinal Cord Injury
Technophage identified a promising compound, Eletriptan hydrobromide, that intends to use as a repurposed drug, for the treatment of acute spinal cord injury (SCI) in human subjects. Eletriptan hydrobromide is a well characterized molecule, that has been clinically available for over two decades for the treatment of migraines. It presents …
UAE-PRIME: A Feasibility Study of a Precise Robotically Implanted Brain-Computer Interface for the Control of External Devices
The UAE-PRIME Study is a feasibility study designed to assess the initial clinical safety and functionality of the Neuralink N1 Implant and R1 Robot. This study involves participants who have tetraparesis, tetraplegia, or a diagnosis that may lead to these conditions. The N1 Implant is a wireless, rechargeable device mounted …
GB-PRIME: An Early Feasibility Study of a Precise Robotically Implanted Brain-Computer Interface for the Control of External Devices
The GB-PRIME Study is an early feasibility study designed to assess the clinical safety and functionality of the Neuralink N1 Implant and R1 Robot. This study involves participants who have tetraparesis, tetraplegia, or a diagnosis that may lead to these conditions. The N1 Implant is a wireless, rechargeable device mounted …
Non-invasive Brain Stimulation Paired With FES Cycling Post SCI
This project is randomized controlled trial which will explore the effect of pairing repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) with Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) Cycling on lower extremity function in people with incomplete spinal cord injury and compare the effects to each one of these interventions alone.
Safety and Exploratory Efficacy of Transplantation Therapy Using PSA-NCAM(+) NPC in AIS-A Level of Sub-acute SCI
This study intends to evaluate the safety and exploratory efficacy of transplantation therapy using neural precursor cells (PSA-NCAM(+) NPC) derived from the human embryonic stem cell line for the treatment of paralysis and other related symptoms from sub-acute spinal cord injury.
Active tDCS Versus Sham tDCS for Upper Limb Recovery in Incomplete Tetraplegic Patients
Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) at the cervical level results in motor and sensory impairment below the lesion level and may determine a consistent loss of the use of the upper limbs, with a substantial impact on daily life activities. Therefore, functionality recovery of the upper limbs, of the hands in …
Effects of Intermittent Hypoxia in Upper and Lower Limb Functions in Persons With Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating disability with physical, social and vocational consequences. Owing to its overwhelming complications, the cost of treatment and rehabilitation increases constantly. Persons with spinal cord injury are always dependent on their families in most of house hold, recreational and activities of daily life. Majority …
Restoration of Hand Function in Cervical SCI
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new method of restoring hand function to people with spinal cord injury. Current methods to restore hand function include tendon transfers and nerve transfers. This study will evaluate the grasp strength that can be achieved with a small, implantable stimulator. KeyGrip …
Mild Intermittent Hypoxia and Its Multipronged Effect on Sleep Apnea
Mild intermittent hypoxia (IH) initiates sustained increases in chest wall and upper airway muscle activity in humans. This sustained increase is a form of respiratory plasticity known as long-term facilitation (LTF). Repeated daily exposure to mild IH that leads to the initiation of LTF of upper airway muscle activity could …
