SCS Therapy for Patients With Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction After SCI
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) in treating patients with urinary and bowel dysfunction after spinal cord injury (SCI). SCI is a highly disabling condition that can lead to sensory, motor, and autonomic nervous system dysfunction below the injury level. Neurogenic …
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 …
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 …
Use of Three-dimensional Transvaginal Ultrasound for Anal Sphincter Evaluation
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the reproducibility of new 3D/4D ultrasound volume analysis techniques in the assessment of anal sphincter integrity and thickness in both pregnancy and immediate postpartum. The negative impact that OASISs (Obstetric Anal Sphincter Injuries), and possible subsequent anal incontinence, have on women's …
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. …
Pelvic Floor Exercises for Suboptimal Anorectal Manometry
Currently, guidelines from the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists stipulate that all women who have sustained an obstetric anal sphincter injury in a previous pregnancy and who are symptomatic or have abnormal endoanal ultrasonography and/ or manometry should be counselled regarding the option of an elective Caesarean section. An …
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 NNI Neurosurgery team, together with our collaborators, are expanding our recruitment from our pilot trial named RESTORES: RESToration of Rehabilitative function with Epidural Spinal Stimulation. …
Spinal Stimulation for Upper Extremity Recovery in the Home
The purpose of this research is to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and tolerability of non-invasive spinal stimulation used in the home and/or community in combination with a functional home exercise program for the upper extremities (arm/hand function) as well as their combined impacts on changes in upper extremity function. The …
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 …
Brain Computer Interface: Neuroprosthetic Control of a Motorized Exoskeleton
The BCI project falls within the very broad field of brain machine interfaces. Its multiple applications include the compensation of motor deficits. The subject of the present protocol is the first test of the system in man on the compensation of motor deficits by an epidural brain implant enabling an …
