Effects of Intravascular Administration of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Derived from Wharton's Jelly of the Umbilical Cord on Systemic Immunomodulation and Neuroinflammation After Traumatic Brain Injury.
Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) are one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. These patients are burdened by physical, cognitive, and psychosocial deficits, leading to an important economic impact for society. Treatments for TBI patients are limited and none has been shown to provide prolonged and long-term neuroprotective …
Blended Reality Immersion for Geriatric Head Trauma: The BRIGHT Study
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major public health concern, particularly among older adults (OAs) ≥ 65 years of age. Each year in the United States, TBI results in over 600,000 emergency department visits and hospitalizations among OAs. Mild TBI (mTBI) accounts for 80% of all TBI in OAs and …
Noninvasive Vagal Nerve Stimulation and Cognitive Rehabilitation
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of using transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) to enhance cognitive recovery in patients with mild-moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI).
Evaluation of the Abbott i-STAT TBI Biomarker Test
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 200,000 hospitalizations occurred in 2020 related to Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), which does not include many TBIs treated only in emergency departments, urgent care, primary care, or that are not evaluated by a clinician. Head CT is a critical component …
Personalized Cognitive Integrated Motor Training Using Virtual Reality to Improve Gait and Balance
Problems with walking and balance are common after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Walking and balance problems limit independence and increase risk for injuries due to falls. The purpose of this research study is to test the effectiveness of training that combines moving and thinking tasks, referred to as Personalized cognitive …
NEUROBALANCE Training to Improve Postural Control in Individuals With Traumatic Brain Injury
Our proposed study, ";NEUROBALANCE,"; aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a combined intervention involving robotic balance training and noninvasive brain stimulation in improving balance functions in individuals with chronic traumatic brain injury (TBI). The study will recruit 45 participants who have had a TBI for over six months and experience …
The REACH Intervention for Caregivers of Veterans and Service Members With TBI
This randomized waitlist control trial will evaluate the effects of a psychoeducational intervention called Resources for Enhancing All Caregivers' Health - Traumatic Brain Injury (REACH TBI) to decrease caregiver strain (primary outcome) and improve caregiver self-efficacy, anxiety, depression, and health care frustrations (secondary outcomes). This study will modify and adapt …
Cervical Transcutaneous SCS for TBI
The goal of this study is to test the effects of non-invasive electrical stimulation of the spinal cord (called transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation, or tSCS) on arm and hand movement in people with motor impairments after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Specifically, tSCS will be delivered using adhesive electrode pads …
Novel Intervention for Chronic Complex TBI in OEF/OIF/OND Veterans
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare pregnenolone and placebo (a placebo is a look-alike substance that contains no active drug) in Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom/Operation New Dawn (OEF/OIF/OND)-Era Veterans with a history of chronic Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). The main questions it aims to answer are: …
Community-based Implementation of Online EmReg
This is a hybrid type III implementation-effectiveness trial; this study design blends elements of implementation and clinical effectiveness research, with the primary aim of determining the utility of an implementation strategy and a secondary aim of assessing clinical outcomes associated with the implementation trial. Consistent with best practices for this …
