Decreasing Preoperative Stress to Prevent Postoperative Delirium and Postoperative Cognitive Decline in Cardiac Surgical Patients.
Patients undergoing cardiac surgery often complain of anxiety before a major operation and the resulting stress. This circumstance is a risk factor for mental problems that may occur after the operation (e.g., delirium or memory deficits). This study aims to prevent these discomforts by a preoperative relaxation intervention.
Impact of Personalised Cardiac Anaesthesia and Cerebral Autoregulation on Neurological Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
This international, multicentre prospective cohort study will assess whether perioperative duration and magnitude of mean arterial pressure (MAP) outside of an individual's cerebral autoregulation (CA) limits using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and transcranial Doppler (TCD) are associated with adverse neurological events. It is to investigate whether patients with a higher burden …
Characterizing Variability in Hearing Aid Outcomes in Among Older Adults With Alzheimer's Dementia
This current translational project, funded by NIH, aims to better understand the impact of various signal modification strategies for older adults with Alzheimer's dementia and its potential precursor, known as amnestic mild cognitive impairment. The investigators hypothesize that adults with Alzheimer's dementia represent an extreme case of restricted cognitive ability, …
Remotely Supervised tDCS+ for Complex Attention in mTBI (Cognetric)
The proposed study will evaluate a new approach to cognitive rehabilitation of mTBI using a brain stimulation technique called "Remotely Supervised Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation combined with Cognitive Training" (RS-tDCS+) which has shown promise for improving complex attention in both healthy and clinical populations. RS-tDCS+ is a home-based, low-risk, non-invasive …
TRAnscranial Doppler CErebral Blood Flow and Cognitive IMPAIRment in Heart Failure
TRACE-IMPAIR is a prospective, clinical study of consecutive patients that evaluates the relationship between heart failure (HF) and cognitive impairment in relation to carotid and cerebral flow. The carotid and cerebral flow will be assessed using Doppler ultrasonography, and cognitive function will be estimated during routine neuropsychological tests. It is …
Trial of CORT108297 to Attenuate the Effects of Acute Stress in the Allocortex (CORT-X)
CORT-X will examine if mitigation of stress-mediated pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a feasible target for intervention in individuals at risk for this disease. This single-site (Baltimore, Maryland) phase II clinical trial is a 2-week, randomized, placebo-controlled crossover study of the effects of the selective glucocorticoid receptor antagonist, CORT108297, …
Optical Neuroimaging and Cognition
Dementia is associated with a variety of neurovascular and neurometabolic abnormalities. Traditional imaging techniques used to investigate such abnormalities, such as Positron Emission Tomography and functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, are not always well tolerated, have expensive start up and running costs, and are limited with regards to the types of …
PostoperAtive Neurocognitive Dysfunction After Major AbdomiNal Surgery (PANDAMAN)
Predisposing and precipitating factors for perioperative delirium for the elderly remain elusive. This research will be conducted to determine risk factors of postoperative delirium.
COMPuter-assisted Self-training to Improve EXecutive Function
This project explores the effects of specialized computer-based cognitive rehabilitation (CBCR) targeting executive functions in three groups of patients: Stroke, Cardiac Arrest and Parkinson's Disease. The effect of specialized CBCR is compared to generally cognitively stimulating activities on a computer
HOBSCOTCH-MS-Efficacy Trial
The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of the home-based intervention, HOBSCOTCH-MS to improve the quality of life and cognitive function in Service Members, Veterans and civilians who have multiple sclerosis with cognitive and memory problems (MS participants). This study will also assess the ability of the …
