Repetitive Acute Intermittent Hypoxia for Spinal Cord Repair
Our goal is to enhance repeated exposure to acute intermittent hypoxia (rAIH)/training-induced aftereffects on upper and lower limb function recovery in humans with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI).
Effects of Breathing Mild Bouts of Low Oxygen on Limb Mobility After Spinal Injury
Accumulating evidence suggests that repeatedly breathing low oxygen levels for brief periods (termed intermittent hypoxia) is a safe and effective treatment strategy to promote meaningful functional recovery in persons with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI). The goal of the study is to understand the mechanisms by which intermittent hypoxia enhances …
Duroplasty for Injured Cervical Spinal Cord With Uncontrolled Swelling
QUESTION. Does duroplasty improve outcome after spinal cord injury? WHAT DO WE STUDY? We will investigate whether performing a surgical procedure called duroplasty improves outcomes after spinal cord injury. WHY SPINAL CORD INJURY? Spinal cord injury is a devastating condition that causes permanent disability such as paralysis, numbness and loss …
Kayak Ergometer Training in Individuals With Spinal Cord Injury
One of the main objectives in spinal cord injury rehabilitation programs is the improvement of trunk control in order to achieve independence, to prevent complications and, in specific cases to walk. Research question: What is the effect of kayak ergometer training in trunk control, cardiovascular condition and independence in individuals …
Corticospinal Function After Spinal Cord Injury
The investigator's overall goal is to develop new strategies to test optimization of Spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) doses to maximize strategy to restore upper and lower-limb motor function in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). The investigator proposes to use modern electrophysiological methods to enhance the efficacy of residual corticospinal connections. …
Task-specific Epidural Stimulation Study
The investigators propose to understand the role of lumbosacral spinal cord epidural stimulation (scES) in recovery of autonomic nervous system function, voluntary movement, and standing in individuals with severe spinal cord injury (SCI). Thirty-six individuals with severe SCI who have cardiovascular and respiratory dysfunction and who are unable to voluntarily …
Safety of Cultured Allogeneic Adult Umbilical Cord Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells for SCI
This trial will study the safety and efficacy of cultured allogeneic adult umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of Spinal Cord Injury.
Transcutaneous Spinal Stimulation: Safety and Feasibility for Upper Limb Function in Children With Spinal Cord Injury
Children who suffer a spinal cord injury in the neck region have difficulty using their hands due to paralysis and/or weakness of their arms and hand muscles. The purpose of this project is to test the safety, comfort, and practicality of a new therapy that stimulates the spinal cord to …
Improving Adherence to Spinal Cord Injury Exercise Guidelines Using Smartphone Technology and E-coaching
The goal of this research is to increase physical activity among individuals with a spinal cord injury (SCI) through a customized, interactive smartphone-based health app and e-coaching using three phases: (1) leading focus groups of potential app users and clinicians to gain information regarding health apps preferences for optimal consumer …
Feasibility of Early Gabapentin as an Intervention for Neurorecovery
The objective of the proposed study is to conduct the first ever prospective, dose-exploration trial to test the feasibility of early administration of gabapentin as an intervention for neurorecovery. This research project falls under the Intervention Development stage of research as the primary goal is to assess the feasibility of …
