CBT-I vs. MBTI for Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)-Related Insomnia and Post-Traumatic Stress Symptoms
This study is a prospective two-arm, single blind randomized controlled trial design to compare the clinical effectiveness of telemedicine-delivered, 6-session, standardized cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) and mindfulness-based treatment for insomnia (MBTI) in treating insomnia symptoms and ameliorating depressive symptoms in persons with mild to moderate TBI and comorbid …
Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Post-concussion Headaches
This study aims to examine the long-term effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), a non-invasive brain stimulation technique, on chronic headaches following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). rTMS has been shown to be effective in reducing chronic headaches without side effects commonly seen in medications, such as sleepiness and …
Effectiveness of Music Therapy on Level of Consciousness
It is known that even in patients with severe disorders of consciousness (DOC), the perception of known stimuli triggers emotional reactions that can be interpreted as an expression of a residual function of consciousness. Music therapy has a long tradition in neurological rehabilitation. Frequently, active therapies with own music making …
The Effect of Targeting the Plantaris Muscle-tendon in Surgical Correction of Ankle Equinus in Children
Tight ankle muscles can produce ankle equinus (limited ability to pull the foot upward) and occur often in children, significantly impacting their ability to walk. If not treated, children with ankle equinus frequently experience reduced function and long-term foot problems, such as pain. Currently, treatment options include surgery or Botulinum …
Upper Limb Nerve Cryoneurolysis is Non Inferior to the Usual Care and Has Therapeutic Add Value in Dealing with Shoulder Pain and Functional Problems Caused by Spasticity and Motor Impairment
This trial is part of the spastiCRYO clinical research project. The primary objective of this clinical trial is to test the hypothesis: "Upper limb nerve cryoneurolysis is non inferior to the usual care and has therapeutic add value in dealing with shoulder pain and functional problems caused by spasticity and …
Stimulating Specific Brain Areas (VOP/VIM) With Electricity to Improve Movement and Muscle Control
In this study the investigators aim to enroll patients scheduled to undergo deep brain stimulation (DBS) implantation for movement disorders for intra-operative testing. In addition to standard-of-care surgical procedure to implant deep brain stimulation electrode leads, participants will also be stimulated and recorded from cortical areas by a temporary strip …
Effects of Aerobic Exercise on Cognition,Cerebral Brain Flow and Mental Health Among Traumatic Brain Injury Patients
The aim of this study is to develop exercise prescription of TBI patients and then to evaluate the effectiveness of programmed aerobic walking exercise to improve cognitive performance, depression relief, motivation, symptom, resilience and quality of life with improvement of CBF. This will be a randomized controlled clinical trial, using …
Precision Biomarkers to Detect Brain Injury in Active-Duty United States Special Operations Forces With Repeated Blast Exposure
This is a 4-year, longitudinal study of 100 active-duty Navy SEALs. The goal of the study is to determine whether repeated blast exposure affects SEAL brain health and to develop an initial diagnostic testing protocol that detects repeated blast brain injury.
Interest of the 7 Tesla MRI in the Diagnosis of Post-concussion Syndromes Among Patients With Mild Traumatic Brain Injury
We aimed to conduct a prospective longitudinal interventionnal monocentric study to assess the ability of seven tesla MRI to detect diffuses axonal lesions in patients presenting a post concussional syndrom (PCS) at seven days about a mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI). Our first objective was to evaluate the diagnostic performance …
Amygdala Memory Enhancement
The objective is to understand how amygdala activation affects other medial temporal lobe structures to prioritize long-term memories. The project is relevant to disorders of memory and to disorders involving affect and memory, including traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress disorder.
