Comparison of Early Caffeine Administration Vs Supportive Therapy in Preventing Acute Kidney Injury
Recent observational data point towards a reduced incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) with early caffeine use, but high-quality randomized controlled trials comparing early caffeine initiation to supportive therapy alone are lacking. This study aims to fill this critical gap by comparing the efficacy of early caffeine administration versus supportive …
Monitoring the Clinical and Immunological Effects of Microbiome Changes Following Severe Burn Injury
The aim of this study is to longitudinally monitor dynamic changes in the gut microbiome following severe burn injury using fecal samples. Under standard nutritional protocols and intensive care management, serial fecal sampling is performed to assess alterations in microbiome diversity and composition, as well as the indirect effects of …
Evaluation of Perioperative Myocardial Injury in Patients Undergoing Below-Knee Lower Extremity Surgery
The aim of this observational study was to detect myocardial damage by monitoring high-sensitive troponin I levels in patients undergoing below-knee extremity surgery with peripheral nerve block. The primary question it aims to answer is: How effective are peroperative high-sensitive troponin I levels in predicting myocardial damage? High-sensitive troponin I …
The Effect of Simulated Burn Injury on Post Exercise Recovery in Hot Environments
Burn survivors have difficulty thermoregulating due to reduced skin blood flow and sweating responses at the grafted sites. It has been previously shown that this impaired heat dissipation results in burn survivors experiencing higher core temperatures for a given exercise/environmental exposure compared to non-burned individuals. This also holds true with …
Virtual Reality vs Traditional Cognitive Training in Patients With Severe Acquired Brain Injury
Considerable evidence exists for using Virtual Reality (VR) for rehabilitation of acquired brain injury (ABI), with a particular focus on stroke. However, to date very little evidence has been collected in patients with ABI with different aetiologies (i.e., traumatic or anoxic brain injury) and level of severity (i.e., severe, sABI). …
Behavioral Treatment of Insomnia in Active-Duty Service Members With Traumatic Brain Injury
The objective of the study is to conduct a randomized controlled trial of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) in a sample of active-duty sailors with a history of traumatic brain injury (TBI). The investigators will test the impact of CBT-I on insomnia symptoms as well as post-concussive symptoms, psychological …
Sleep Apnea in Paralympic Ontario-Resident aThletes With Spinal Cord Injury (SPORTS) Study
This single arm clinical trial will assess whether continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy in the management of moderate-to-severe sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBDs) among para-athletes living with cervical/thoracic, complete or incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI) is effective in improving cognitive impairment, in reducing fatigue, depression, anxiety, and overall quality of …
Neuromodulation and Neurorehabilitation for mTBI Plus PTSD
This study will determine (i) the magnitude of immediate and sustained effects of a current clinical standard interactive computer attention processing training (APT) when combined with intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS), a type of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and (ii) determine how APT + iTBS changes the neurocognitive system of …
Randomized Controlled Trial of Treatment to Optimize Heart Rate Variability for Persistent Post-Concussion Symptoms
Many combat veterans (c-Vs), service members (SMs) and civilians with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI, also termed concussion) suffer from persistent post-concussion symptoms (PPCS) that degrade physical and cognitive well-being and have been linked with early neurodegeneration. PPCS include somatosensory (e.g., headache, disturbed vision), vestibular (e.g., dizzy, clumsy), cognitive (e.g., …
Positioning for Hip Arthroscopic Surgery to Reduce Postoperative Numbness
Compared to the knee and shoulder, the hip joint leaves relatively little space to maneuver arthroscopic instruments and camera. To expand the potential space in the hip joint, traction is commonly applied to the operative leg through a perineal post. This is an effective technique to improve the working space …
