Individuals with chronic cervical spinal cord injury will complete a 10-week training protocol where participants receive non-invasive brain stimulation and feedback on the size of the corresponding muscle response (wrist extensor). Investigators will assess the impact of the brain stimulation training on 1) the brain-to-spinal cord-to-muscle connection and 2) motor …
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of various hemodynamic management strategies on functional neurologic outcomes and non-neurologic adverse events in the first 5 days following acute spinal cord injury (SCI). The hemodynamic management strategies assessed include targeting a mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) goal of 85-90 …
A well-established rehabilitation strategy for improvements of standing and walking ability in persons with spinal cord injury (SCI) is step training on a motorized treadmill with body weight support. A promising intervention is stimulation of the spinal cord through the skin (transspinal). No single intervention is likely to significantly improve …
This study aims to characterize and compare the closure of open wounds in the palatal mucosa of diabetic and non-diabetic patients, evaluate clinical, patient-centered and immunological parameters as well as wound microbiome composition.
Suprasacral spinal cord injury (SCI) frequently leads to neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO), resulting in elevated bladder storage pressures, urinary incontinence, and an increased risk of upper urinary tract damage. Early regulation of bladder function is a key objective of SCI rehabilitation, particularly during the subacute phase when pathological spinal reflex …
About 70% of people with a spinal cord injury in Switzerland have chronic pain that lasts more than 3 to 6 months. This pain can be caused by muscle or joint problems, or by nerve damage (neuropathic pain). Neuropathic pain is often hard to treat, and current treatments may cause …
This study examines the effects of low oxygen therapy (LOT) on the stability of 24-hour blood pressure in persons with chronic cervical spinal cord injury. This study will examine if brief episodes of breathing lower oxygen, termed low oxygen therapy (LOT), which has been shown to enhance autonomic nervous system …
The aim of the study is to identify the specific characteristics of brain network dysfunctions and assess the recovery of their functionality through the recording of resting-state electroencephalography (EEG) during rehabilitation using spinal cord stimulation (SCS). Researchers expect that effective SCS scenarios will result in progressive alterations in the quantitative …
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Epidural Electrical Stimulation (EES) in motor and sensory function Reconstruction in chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) patients classified as ASIA B-D. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does EES treatment significantly improve motor and …
This study aims to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the personal exoskeleton in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI).
