Evaluation of New MRI Sequences Including 3D-FGAPSIR for the Optimization of Inflammatory Spinal Cord Lesions Research
verification of inclusion and non-inclusion criteria information and collection of consent standard imaging protocol prescribed as part of the usual treatment: sagittal T1 and T2 slices after injection of contrast product (Gadolinium), 3D STIR and 3D PSIR sequence. 3D FGAPSIR sequence at the level of the cervical cord for the …
Epidural Stimulation and Resistance Training After SCI
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating health problem for tens of thousands of military personnel, Veterans and civilians annually. Many persons with SCI must use a wheelchair for their entire life. A new scientific breakthrough called "lumbosacral epidural stimulation" or "ES" can help people with SCI to stand, step …
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 …
The Enteric Nervous System in Spinal Cord Injury: Study of the Enteric Nervous System and the Intestinal Epithelial Barrier Via Colonic Biopsies in Spinal Cord Injury Patients
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn more about the enteric nervous system (ENS) and the intestinal epithelial barrier (IEB) in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). The main questions it aims to answer are : to characterize the functional (permeability, serotonin production, enteric neuronal phenotype, etc.), proteomic …
Combination Therapy to Improve SCI Recovery.
The purpose of this study is to determine how combining bouts of low oxygen, transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation, and walking training may improve walking function for people with chronic spinal cord injury.
Seated Balance Using the Indego™
Exoskeleton-assisted walking (EAW) provides a new mobility option and appears to have potential therapeutic benefits for persons with SCI. However, present day technology is not sufficient to replace the wheelchair. During EAW, users stand upright, maintain static and dynamic balance by actively and passively stimulating trunk and lower limb muscles …
Spinal Cord Stimulation and Training
This study will help the investigators better understand the changes in short-term excitability and long-term plasticity of corticospinal, reticulospinal and spinal neural circuits and how the changes impact the improvements of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) mediated motor function.
Influence of Spinal Stimulation Frequency on Spasticity, Motor Control, and Pain After Spinal Cord Injury
The goal of this study is to identify the effect of different types of noninvasive spinal stimulation on spasticity (involuntary muscle activity), muscle strength, and pain in people with spinal cord injury. The spinal stimulation consists of electrical stimulation applied through one electrode over the skin of the lower back …
Promoting Recovery Outcomes Through Precise Early Locomotor Interventions in Persons With Spinal Cord Injury
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if a specific type of additional walking therapy, called body weight supported treadmill training (BWSTT) affects walking ability following a traumatic spinal cord injury. Specifically, the study will look at whether starting BWSTT, which uses a body harness to support body weight …
HAPPINESS: cHAnging the Perceived Pain INtEnSity in Populations With Spinal Cord Injury and With Health Disparities: A Feasibility Study
Chronic neuropathic pain affects 69% of adults with spinal cord injury (SCI). Current treatment options are limited (primarily pain medications) with insufficient benefits and significant risks for addiction and adverse effects. Of the available mind and body approaches, Qigong is the most accessible for adults with SCI with evidence for …
