Improving Traumatic Brain Injury Rehab Care With Comm Health Services: a Research Project Within the TBI Model System
TBI rehabilitation care transitions refer to the processes of preparing patients, families, and community-based healthcare providers for the patient's passage from inpatient rehabilitation to the home and community or to another level of care. Persons with TBI have heterogenous neurological impairment (cognitive and behavioral foremost, along with motor, sensory, and …
Assistive Soft Skills and Employment Training (ASSET) in TBI Injury
Pediatric traumatic brain injury (TBI) is often associated with difficulties in social functioning. Loss of social contacts and difficulties maintaining social connections is common after pediatric TBI, extending into adulthood. Social skills are a key aspect of social functioning critical to forming and maintaining social relationships with others, including family, …
Using Virtual Reality to Improve Job Reentry in Adults With TBI
The purpose of this research is to investigate the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) to improve job reentry skills in individuals with TBI.
Verbal Working Memory and Attention Remediation for Adults With Traumatic Brain Injury.
This project will examine if computerized cognitive remediation will improve working memory and attention in 25 adults with a mild, moderate, or severe brain injury and compare their cognitive performance to the control group of 25 adults with a mild, moderate, or severe brain injury. The control group will train …
Virtual Reality in Rehabilitation of Executive Functions in Children With Mild or Moderate Traumatic Brain Injury
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes lifelong disability. Children with TBI often have difficulties in attention regulation and executive functions affecting their daily living. Need for rehabilitation is often long-lasting and there is an increasing demand for timely, cost-effective, and feasible rehabilitation methods, where the training is targeted to support daily …
Brain Balance Study
A moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurring in early or middle adulthood might have long-lasting effects on the brain that can accelerate the decline of physical and cognitive function in older age. The proposed study seeks to better understand the implications of aging with a TBI, in order to help …
GetUp&Go: A Randomized Controlled Trial of an Intervention to Enhance Physical Activity After TBI
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate GetUp&Go, a program for promoting increased physical activity in individuals at least 6 months post moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury. GetUp&Go is a remotely delivered 10-week program that includes one-on-one sessions with a therapist and a mobile health application (RehaBot). The main …
High Intensity Step Training After Traumatic Brain Injury
This study will explore whether the types and intensity of the interventions being delivered will yield measurable cognitive benefits in addition to improved mobility and balance. The study evaluates three therapeutic approaches to improve mobility and balance after traumatic brain injury (TBI): Conventional Gait and Balance Training, high intensity step …
Study to Improve Ambulation in Individuals With TBI Using Virtual Reality -Based Treadmill Training
The purpose of this research study is to test the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) based treadmill training on walking ability. The study will also help to understand the changes in cognitive ability and brain activity as a result of VR-based treadmill training after a brain injury. The study will …
Improving Neurotrauma by Depolarization Inhibition With Combination Therapy (INDICT)
This study is a randomized Phase 2 trial to determine the feasibility of real-time electrocorticographic monitoring of spreading depolarizations (SD) to guide implementation of a tier-based protocol of intensive care therapies, aimed at SD suppression, for the management of patients who have undergone acute operative treatment of severe traumatic brain …
