The objective of this study is to quantify the amount of physical mobilisation provided to patients with moderate to severe acquired brain injury in Scandinavian neuro-ICs, and the association between intensity and duration of mobilisation, physiological data perceived to be related to the safety of high-level mobilisation, and amount of …
The primary objective of this study is to prospectively determine, at 10 days after orthopedic shoulder or knee surgery, if pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy is beneficial in reducing patient-reported post-operative pain, as measured by visual analog scale (VAS). The amount of pain medication taken daily and the physical function …
Growing evidence indicates that electrical spinal cord stimulation improves motor functions both immediately and over the long term via modulating the excitability of spinal circuitry in patients with spinal cord injury. Recently, a novel, non-invasive, well-tolerated, and painless lumbosacral transcutaneous electrical stimulation strategy was demonstrated to be effective in improving …
Neurological disability caused by traumatic lesions of the spinal cord is a significant challenge for medicine and society. These lesions, leading to sublesional central nervous system dysfunction, include sensorimotor, vesico-sphincter and genito-sexual disorders. To date, there is no treatment that enables spinal cord function to be restored. Preclinical studies have …
Acute intermittent hypoxia (AIH) involves brief (1 min), repeated episodes (\~15) of breathing low oxygen air to stimulate spinal neuroplasticity. Animal and human studies show that AIH improves motor function after spinal cord injury, particularly with slightly increased carbon dioxide (hypercapnic AIH; AIHH) and task-specific training. Using a double blind …
The loss of movement and walking ability significantly affects quality of life after spinal cord injury. In addition, bladder dysfunction consistently ranks as one of the top disorders affecting quality of life after spinal cord injury. The overall objective of this study is to demonstrate that epidural stimulation may be …
Spinal cord injuries are anatomically mostly incomplete, showing tissue bridges of the spinal cord at the injury site. Of the 60% functionally incomplete patients, about half face a life in the wheelchair. Besides conventional rehabilitation, no prominsing further treatment options exist. One of the most plastic systems involved in locomotion …
This trial will investigate the safety and utility of spinal cord neuromodulation to improve urinary bladder function in the context of spinal cord injury.
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 …
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.
