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 …
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 Exercises for Alleviating Attention Deficits in Patients With Acquired Brain Injury
Stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability with an increasing incidence, especially in young adults. Among the cognitive difficulties following brain damage, deficits in attention are frequent and pervasive, affecting between 46% and 92% of stroke survivors. The current project targets patients with acquired brain injury, including stroke, traumatic …
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 …
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., …
Reducing Intraoperative ESKAPE Transmission Through Use of a Personal Hand Hygiene System
The investigators hypothesize that the use of a personal hand hygiene system (SafeHavenTM) by anesthesia providers in the adult operating room, combined with a novel infectious pathogen tracking system (OR PathTrac) will decrease participant exposure to pathologic bacteria in the adult operating room.
