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.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether combining Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) with Augmented Reality (AR)-based gait training can improve walking ability in individuals with incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI). The study aims to identify the most effective rehabilitation approach for enhancing gait performance and functional independence …
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 …
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.
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 …
This study examines how spinal cord stimulation (SCS) affects pain level and quality of life in patients experiencing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). CIPN is a nerve problem and one of the potential side effects of chemotherapy that causes pain, numbness, tingling, swelling, or muscle weakness in different parts of the …
To assess safety and feasebility of the "safe-line" technique in a multicenter international collaboration.
Spinal cord gliomas are the most common type of primary intramedullary malignant tumors, with a low incidence and a peak onset age of approximately 35 years. They are slightly more prevalent in males than females. Clinical manifestations vary depending on tumor characteristics and location, typically presenting with axial pain and …
This study aims to assess how use of spinal cord stimulation for the treatment of chronic pain impacts brain structure and function. The investigators will use a non-invasive neuroimaging technique called resting state Near Infrared Spectroscopy and Electroencephalography (rs-fNIRS/EEG). The investigators will enroll Veterans who are currently receiving care at …
This study is a prospective, multi-center study designed to compare the safety and efficacy of spinal cord induced muscle stimulation (MuscleSCS) for the treatment of chronic low back pain.
