Spinal cord injury leads to long-lasting impairment, and currently, there is no cure for paralysis. Although transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation has shown promising results in recovering lost movements, its poor selectivity in muscle recruitment compared to invasive approaches limits the type of rehabilitation exercises that can be practiced. This project …
This study is aimed to evaluate whether transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) can augment robotic gait training (RGT) to improve functional mobility in participants with chronic spinal cord injuries. It also evaluate the impact of the tSCS+RGT on health-related quality of life (HRQOL), compared to RGT alone. This is a …
This study is aimed to evaluate whether transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) can augment upper limb robotic training (ULRT) to improve functional mobility in participants with chronic spinal cord injuries. It also evaluates the impact of the tSCS+ULRT on health-related quality of life (HRQOL), compared to ULRT alone. This is …
This study aims to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the personal exoskeleton in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI).
While physical exercise remains the foundation for any rehabilitation therapy, the team seeks to improve the benefits of exercise by combining it with the concept of "Fire Together, Wire Together" - when brain stimulation is synchronized with spinal cord stimulation, nerve circuits in the spinal cord strengthen - a phenomenon …
This observational methodology study will produce a Turkish version of the Nottwil Environmental Factors Inventory (NEFI-TR) within one month using a standardized translation and cultural adaptation process. Content validity will be assessed using an expert panel (and, if applicable, cognitive debriefing with adults with spinal cord injury) to ensure relevance, …
This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the feasibility and clinical utility of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) monitoring applied to paraspinal muscles as a surrogate marker of spinal cord perfusion in patients undergoing major noncardiac surgery. Spinal cord ischemia represents a rare but devastating complication, often difficult to detect in real …
To determine the accuracy of serum NF-L and GFAP levels (ie the biomarkers) at different time points postinjury for predicting the severity of neurologic impairment at 6 months postinjury as either motor complete (AIS grade A/B) or motor incomplete (AIS grade C/D) a group of patients who suffer traumatic spinal …
CE-STAND aims to address three areas under-represented in research: chronic, cervical, and autonomic dysfunction. It is both significant and highly impactful, as treating autonomic dysfunction could substantially improve function and quality of life (QoL) in chronic cervical SCI patients.
Spinal cord injury (SCI) can make it hard for the body to self-regulate some of its automatic functions like blood pressure, breathing, and heart rate. This can also make it hard for those living with SCI to exercise or complete their usual daily activities. The goal of this randomized trial …
