Background People with cerebral palsy, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, or spinal cord injury often have muscle weakness and problems controlling how their legs move. This can affect how they walk. The NIH has designed a robotic device (exoskeleton) that can be worn on the legs while walking. The wearable robot …
The proposed study evaluates the effect of ankle foot orthosis (AFO) heel height and stiffness on the forces and motion of the lower limb during over-ground walking in individuals who use an AFO for daily walking. Previous studies suggest that heel height and stiffness effect limb loading, but these data …
Hospitalized patients with ARDS will be randomized to intravenous treatment with a monoclonal antibody against CD14, called IC14, or placebo. They will be followed for 28 days. The primary outcome is the day 4 oxygenation index assessed as a continuous measure.
The goal of this Phase III randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of a novel psychotherapeutic intervention called Emotion and Symptom-focused Engagement (EASE) in parents caring for a child or adolescent with cancer. The main question it aims to answer is: \- Is EASE plus usual care associated …
Fractures of the lower leg are especially difficult for older adults. They are more likely to have serious complications, require longer healing times, and have a higher risk of death This occurs because their bodies cannot tolerate stress as well as younger individuals. The injury itself places significant strain on …
The joint cartilage constructed by combining bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells with three-dimensional materials has achieved the goal of repairing joint cartilage.
Spinal cord associative plasticity (SCAP) is a combined cortical and spinal electrical stimulation technique developed to induce recovery of arm and hand function in spinal cord injury. The proposed study will advance understanding of SCAP, which is critical to its effective translation to human therapy. The purpose of the study …
The proposed study seeks to understand how the cervical spinal cord should be stimulated after injury through short-term physiology experiments that will inform a preclinical efficacy trial. The purpose of this study is to determine which cervical levels epidural electrical stimulation (EES) should target to recruit arm and hand muscles …
Among all patients admitted to intensive care, it is estimated that more than half of them are exposed during their stay to acute renal failure (ARF). Impacting the vital prognosis to short term, the occurrence of renal failure is not without consequences in intensive care survivors, presenting an increased risk …
