Tesamorelin to Improve Functional Outcomes After Peripheral Nerve Injury
The aim of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy of tesamorelin as a therapy for peripheral nerve injuries. The investigators hypothesize that treatment with tesamorelin will allow for faster and greater recovery of motor and sensory function following surgical repair of injured peripheral nerves. Patients with upper extremity …
Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) Mediated Fusion (PEG Fusion)
The overall objective of this study is to determine the safety of PEG fusion when used with primary repair or reconstruction in patients with an acute upper extremity peripheral nerve injury. PEG is safe and effective for extending the half-life of circulating pharmaceutical products, when used in conjunction with a …
Mirror Therapy Integrated With Electrical Stimulation for Cortical Modulations
Peripheral nerve injury is common and can result in loss of sensation and motor function, reduced quality of life, and prolonged time to return to work. Maladaptive cortical reorganization occurs after nerve injury or immobilization and can further impair the recovery process. To improve the sensorimotor prognosis of people with …
A Comparison of NeuroSpan Bridge, NeuraGen Nerve Guide, and Nerve Autograft for Peripheral Nerve Repair
This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, subject and evaluator blinded clinical trial to asses the efficacy of Auxilium's NeuroSpan Bridge.
Risk of Nerve Damage After Administration of Local Anesthesia
This research aims to evaluate of the risk of nerve damage following the administration of articaine 4% and lidocaine 2% for Inferior Alveolar nerve Block (IANB). A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial will be conducted where the patient will be randomly assigned to one the two groups; articaine 4% and Lidocaine …
Prevention of Oxaliplatin-induced Nerve Damage in the Body's Extremities
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of supplementary polyunsaturated fatty acids on nerve damage in the body's extremitites of patients treated with oxaliplatin containing chemotherapy after surgery for colorectal cancer.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Chronic Neuropathic Pain
Chronic neuropathic pain is defined as pain caused by a lesion or disease of the somatosensory nervous system. It is highly prevalent, debilitating, and challenging to treat. Current available treatments have low efficacy, high side effect burden, and are prone to misuse and dependence. Emerging evidence suggests that the transition …
Cast Or ePineural Suture for Digital Nerve Injuries - a Randomised Controlled Study
Nerve injury in the fingers is a common injury and affects people of all ages. The treatment usually offered to patients is surgery and various types of rehabilitation. There is a lack of knowledge and research on how these injuries should be treated in the best way and how well …
Optic Nerve Injury in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patients
Ischemic optic neuropathy (ION) is damage to the optic nerve caused by ischemia and hypoxia of the optic nerve due to an impairment of the blood supply to the optic nerve from the arteries. Obstructive Sleep Apnea Hypoventilation Syndrome (OSAHS) is a sleep-breathing disorder characterized by recurrent upper airway obstruction …
Effect of Nerve Stimulation on Sciatic Nerve Injury Pediatric Patients
Brief Summary The goal of this study is to learn if Faradic Nerve Stimulation (FNS) can help children recover from a condition called Post-Injection Sciatic Nerve Injury (PISNI). PISNI happens when the sciatic nerve, which controls muscles and sensation in the legs, gets injured from an injection that was given …
