Comparison of Bone-patellar Tendon-bone and Patellar Tendon-bone Grafts in ACL Reconstruction
The purpose of this randomized study is to compare donor site morbidity and clinical and functional outcomes of both surgery techniques (bone-patellar tendon-bone (BPTB) graft versus bone-patellar tendon without patellar bone plug (PT) graft) for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) in athletes. The main questions it aims to answer are: …
Infliximab for Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Associated AKI
This is a multi-center, 1:1 randomized pilot study examining the efficacy and safety of infliximab 5mg/kg x 1 paired with 2 weeks of prednisone 1mg/kg per day for 2 weeks versus standard-of-care glucocorticoid therapy (prednisone 1mg/kg/day x 2 weeks followed by a 4 week taper) on the rate and speed …
Vitamin D to Improve Quadricep Muscle Strength
Quadriceps muscle strength is one of the key determinants for patients to fulfill the Return-to-Play (RTP) criteria after an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), in which the muscle size is directly linked to muscle strength. Quadriceps muscle atrophy is unavoidable after ACLR, but the rehabilitation program should increase quadriceps muscle …
Studying How Outpatient Water affEcts Risks With Drains (SHOWER Study)
This is a prospective randomized, controlled, unblinded, interventional feasibility study to evaluate if showering with post operative drains in place leads to an increase in complications. The patients included in the study will be those undergoing breast reductions and panniculectomies at Geisinger Medical Center. The patients will be randomized post …
Neuromodulation and Neurorehabilitation for mTBI
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., …
Improving Cognitive Rehabilitation Outcomes
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and mild TBI (mTBI) frequently co-occur in post-9/11 Veterans, and together are associated with worse cognitive performance, mental health, everyday functioning, community integration, quality of life, and treatment response than either condition alone. Additional comorbidities, such as depression and sleep disturbance, are common and further exacerbate …
Electrical Stimulation Exercise for Individuals With Lower Limb Paralysis
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the effectiveness of an exercise training intervention (24-36 sessions) to improve muscle strength and endurance in the lower limbs of individuals with paralysis. Specifically, surface electrical stimulation or previously implanted stimulator will be used to stimulate the muscles during various forms …
Animal Assisted Therapy After Pediatric Brain Injury: Mediators and Moderators of Treatment Response.
Children requiring inpatient rehabilitation treatment following acquired brain injury (ABI) are at risk for poor engagement in rehabilitative therapies. A within subject crossover design will be used to determine whether involving dogs in physical and occupational therapies while receiving inpatient rehabilitation improves patient engagement, how involving dogs improves engagement, and …
Spinal Cord Stimulation for Respiratory Rehabilitation in Patients With Chronic Spinal Cord Injury
Respiratory complications are among the leading causes of death in patients with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI). Our previous work showed that pulmonary function can be improved by using our original respiratory training method. However, the effectiveness of this intervention is limited due to the disruption of brain-spinal connections and …
