Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation Home Study
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to examine the safety and feasibility of SCONE as home based therapy for orthostatic hypotension and bowel dysfunction in individuals with spinal cord injury or multiple system atrophy. The main aims of the study are: To establish a safe protocol for home-based …
Spinal Cord Stimulation for Intractable Mononeuropathy
Rationale: For patients with mononeuropathy, literature has shown that spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an effective therapy for patients who are therapy-resistant to more conventional treatments. However, there is a strong need for higher quality evidence to determine the place of this therapy in this target group. Before conducting a …
Task Practice and Spinal Cord Stimulation
The goal of this study is to understand the effects of combined task practice with transcutaneous cervical spinal cord stimulation. The study will explore the effect of higher stimulation frequencies on spasticity. Transcutaneous stimulation has been shown to improve motor function in some individuals with chronic spinal cord injury. The …
Enhancing Recovery in Non-Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury
The investigators have spent the last decade uncovering unique metabolic and functional abnormalities in the brains of patients with spinal cord compression. Degenerative spinal cord compression represents a unique model of reversible spinal cord injury. In the investigator's previous work, they have demonstrated that cortical reorganization and recruitment is associated …
Finding the Best Combination of Brain and Spinal Cord Stimulation With Hand Training After Spinal Cord Injury
While physical exercise remains the foundation for any rehabilitation therapy, the team seeks to improve the benefits of exercise by combining it with the concept of "Fire Together, Wire Together" - when brain stimulation is synchronized with spinal cord stimulation, nerve circuits in the spinal cord strengthen - a phenomenon …
Therapeutic Mechanisms of Epidural Spinal Cord Stimulation
The purpose of this study in patients undergoing routine care epidural spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is to determine 1) whether SCS reduces arterial blood pressure (BP) in patients which chronic low back pain and hypertension, 2) whether higher baseline BP (i.e., hypertension) predicts reductions in pain following SCS, and finally …
Exoskeleton and Spinal Cord Stimulation for SCI
The overall aim of this project is to assess the effect of combining transcutaneous lumbosacral stimulation (TLS) during Exoskeleton Assisted Walking (EAW) compared to EAW alone without stimulation on walking recovery.
NVG-291 in Spinal Cord Injury Subjects
A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Phase 1b/2a Study of NVG-291 in Spinal Cord Injury Subjects
Neuromodulation of the Cortex and Spinal Cord
Specific Aim 1: To further quantify the difference in the sensorimotor cortical activity, spinal cord activity, and corticospinal coherence of persons with CP. Overall hypotheses: The sensorimotor cortical activity, spinal cord activity, and corticospinal coherence will be uncharacteristic in persons with CP when compared with neurotypical controls. Furthermore, the extent …
Noninvasive Spinal Cord Stimulation for Early SCI
The investigators are looking to determine the safety and efficacy of non-invasive transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (TSCS) in promoting recovery of lower urinary tract (LUT), bowel, sexual, and cardiovascular function, as well as spasticity in individuals with subacute SCI (time since injury 3-6 months) and the impact on quality of …
