Upper Extremity Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) for Restoration of Upper Extremity Function After Spinal Cord Injury (SCI)
The purpose of this research is to examine the effects that functional electrical stimulation (FES) therapy has on the way the arms, brain and spinal cord work. The study team wants to understand what recovery looks like in persons with a spinal cord injury (SCI) or peripheral nerve injury (PNI) …
Dose Escalation Study of EG110A, Administered by Intradetrusor Injections to Adults With Neurogenic Detrusor Overactivity-related Incontinence Following Spinal Cord Injury Who Regularly Perform Clean Intermittent Catheterization
This is a first-in-human, Phase 1b/2a, open-label, dose-escalation study of a single treatment course consisting of multiple intradetrusor injections of EG110A in male and female adult participants with Neurogenic Detrusor Overactivity (NDO)-related incontinence following Spinal Cord Injury (SCI), who have persistent incontinence after standard of care therapy and who perform …
Leg Stretching Using an Exoskeleton on Demand for People With Spasticity
The purpose of this research study is to develop a protocol using a fully wearable, portable lower-limb exoskeleton for improving leg and walking function in people with movement disorders. The study investigates the effects of wearing the device during a set of experiments including leg stretching, treadmill walking and overground …
Timing of Rehabilitation Following Cervical Spinal Surgery in Degenerative Myelopathy
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether starting rehabilitation earlier after surgery can improve recovery and is feasible and acceptable for adults with degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) undergoing cervical spine surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: Does starting rehabilitation earlier improve walking, balance, physical …
Non-Invasive Neuromodulation for Upper Extremity Function in Spinal Cord Injury: A Crossover Trial
This study explores two promising therapies for restoring arm and hand function in people with chronic cervical spinal cord injury (SCI), a condition that affects independence and quality of life. It will compare transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation and paired corticospinal-motoneuronal stimulation, both combined with rehabilitation. Using a crossover design, participants …
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 …
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) …
Spinal Cord Stimulation Combined With Physical Therapy in Post-Stroke Upper-Limb Motor Hemiparesis
This study plans to use systems that have been developed by Medtronic to investigate the use of cervical spinal cord stimulation to treat adults with upper limb hemiparesis resulting from a stroke. The spinal cord stimulation (SCS) will be combined with physical training to improve arm and hand motor control. …
Nerve Transfers Plus Electrical Stimulation to Improve Hand Function in Cervical Spinal Cord Injury
The goal of this prospective observational study is to determine whether brief intraoperative electrical stimulation and temporary postoperative electrical stimulation improve motor and/or pain outcomes for patients with cervical spinal cord injury undergoing standard of care nerve transfer surgery to improve hand function. The main hypotheses include: Hypothesis #1: Brief …
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 traumatic or non-traumatic (degenerative) spinal cord injury. The main question it aims to answer is whether EC5026 is safe and well tolerated …
