TPAD for Recovery of Standing After Severe SCI
The purpose of this study is to investigate how standing and sitting balance control is altered after spinal cord injury (SCI) and how a new type of robotic assistive device may be used to improve muscle function. This device is called the Tethered Pelvic Assist Device, or TPAD. The main …
Effect of tSCS on Ankle Movement Training in Individuals With SCI
This clinical trial explores the effectiveness of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS), a non-invasive technique, in facilitating spinal circuitry adaptation in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). While epidural spinal cord stimulation (eSCS) has shown functional benefits, its application is limited by the side effects associated with implanted electrodes. tSCS, …
Assessment of Medrol Dosepak to Reduce Opioid Consumption in Foot and Ankle Surgical Patients
This clinical trial aims to determine the effects of a 6-day low-dose methylprednisolone course on pain, nausea, and total opioid consumption in patients undergoing foot and ankle surgeries. The secondary objective of the study is to determine and monitor the effects of the course on complications following surgery and patient-reported …
Epidural Stimulation After Neurologic Damage: Long-Term Outcomes
This study will evaluate the long-term effect of chronic spinal cord stimulation to restore volitional movement for patients with chronic spinal cord injuries.
RESTORES Trial: RESToration Of Rehabilitative Function With Epidural Spinal Stimulation
Spinal Cord Injury (SCI), being a devastating diagnosis, has little to no recovery which leads to a long-standing of debilitating impairment for affected patients. The National Neuroscience Institute (NNI) Neurosurgery team, together with our collaborators, will be embarking on a new clinical pilot trial named RESTORES: RESToration of Rehabilitative function …
Rebuilding Inter-limb Transfer in Cervical SCI
The purpose of this study in people living with cervical Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) is to examine the effects of paired neurostimulation (i.e., PCMS) combined with contralateral motor training on inter-limb transfer of ballistic motor and hand dexterity skills.
A Comparison of THD® Anopress With High Resolution Anorectal Manometry
Currently, high resolution anorectal manometry (HDARM) is used as gold standard to measure anal sphincter pressures in women who have sustained a third or fourth degree perineal tears (obstetric anal sphincter injuries). This test is performed to help advise patients on future pregnancies or deliveries. However, HDRM catheters are very …
Feasibility and Safety of a Combined Augmented Reality and Functional Electrical Stimulation System
Cervical spinal cord injury (cSCI) can result in substantial loss of upper-limb function, with associated socio-economic impact on affected individuals and the healthcare system. Evidence suggests that non-invasive neuromodulation such as functional electrical stimulation (FES) therapy can contribute to regaining upper-limb function, which is a top priority for this population. …
A User-friendly, Non-invasive Neuro-orthosis That Restores Volitionally Controlled Grasp Functions for SCI Survivors With Tetraplegia
The goal of this pilot clinical study is to investigate the NeuroLife EMG-FES Sleeve System, a closed-loop approach to functional electrical stimulation, in adults (n=12) with chronic (>12 months) tetraplegia due to spinal cord injury. Briefly, the NeuroLife EMG-FES System is a completely non-invasive system (surface electrodes only, no implantable …
NEUROwave - Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) in Acute Traumatic Complete (AIS A) and Incomplete (AIS B-D) Cross-sectional Lesions on Motor and Sensory Function Within Six Months After Injury
It has been hypothesized that there are two mechanisms of acute traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI): the primary mechanical damage and the secondary injury due to additional pathological processes initiated by the primary injury. Neurological damage due to laceration, contusion, distraction or compression of the spinal cord is called ''primary …
