Cervical Arthroplasty Cost Effectiveness Study (CACES)
To date, no consensus exists on which anterior surgical technique is more cost-effective to treat cervical degenerative disc disease (CDDD). The most commonly used surgical treatment for patients with single- or multilevel symptomatic CDDD is anterior cervical discectomy with fusion (ACDF). However, new complaints of radiculopathy and/or myelopathy commonly develop …
Laser Interstitial Thermal Ablation and Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Patients With Spine Metastases
The purpose of this research is to combine two complementary modes of treatment, spinal interstitial laser ablation and stereotactic spine radiosurgery (SSRS) for the treatment for spinal tumors near the spinal cord with an objective to improve tumor control, improve pain control, preserve function, and improve quality of life. We …
Use of TDCS Stimulation in Neurological and Gynaecological Conditions
The aim of the study is to test the effect of tDCS stimulation on upper and lower limb function in neurological patients and to reduce pain in gynaecological patients. And the impact of tDCS stimulation on patients' quality of life. Standardised questionnaires will be used for pre- and post-stimulation evaluation.
Effects of Long Term Ventilation Support on the Quality of Life of ALS Patients and Their Families
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a serious rapidly progressive disease of the nervous system. The average survival from the time of diagnosis is two to three years. The patient physical and psychological sufferings in ALS are immense, and apart from Riluzole, there is no effective treatment. Care of advanced ALS …
Quatitative MRI of the Spinal Cord in Cervical Myelopathy: Assessment of Microstuctural Damage for Outcome Improvement
The aim of this low interventional study is to detect microstructural degeneration prior to the presentation, worsening, or persistence following surgical or conservative treatment of cervical degenerative myelopathy signs and symptoms using quantitative imaging metrics and functional biometric analysis. The endpoints of the study are to collect and compare the …
NG004 in Spinal Cord Injury Patients
This is the FIH, multicenter, open-label, sequential, multiple ascending dose trial of NG004 in patients with acute incomplete cervical SCI. The trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of 4 dose regimens of NG004, and will evaluate the maximum tolerated dose of NG004.
Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) for Spinal Cord Injury (SCI)
The purpose of this feasibility study is to compare the impact of Spinal cord stimulation [SCS] for Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) pain and rehabilitation. SCS, also known as Epidural Electrical Stimulation (EES), will be utilized along with conventional medical management (CMM) or CMM alone. Participation in this research study is …
Autonomic Effects of Spinal Cord Stimulation in Spinal Cord Injury
The goal of this interventional crossover study is to determine the effects of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (TSCS) on the ability to perform moderate exercise and regulate core body temperature in the chronic spinal cord injury community. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the effects of …
Spinal Cord Transcutaneous Stimulation Effect on Blood Pressure in Acute Spinal Cord Injury (SCI)
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation on blood pressure in individuals with an acute spinal cord injury (within 30 days of injury). Blood pressure instability, specifically orthostatic hypotension (a drop in blood pressure when moving lying flat on your back …
Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation in Children With Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury
Aim 1: Determine the safety and feasibility of administration of TSCS to children in a clinical setting. Participants will be randomly assigned to experimental (TSCS) or control (sham stimulation) groups. Both groups will receive eight-weeks of individualized gait training. We will measure adverse events, including pain and skin irritation, to …
