Virtual Reality Treadmill Training in Individuals With Traumatic Brain Injury
This pilot study aims to determine the feasibility of a virtual reality treadmill training intervention in individuals with Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). Participants will be stratified based on age into adults' group or older adults' group and then randomized into the virtual reality treadmill training (intervention) group with feedback or …
Participation and Executive Functions in Adults Following Traumatic Brain Injury In Sub-Acute Inpatient Rehabilitation
Aim: To examine the feasibility of a new treatment protocol in improving executive function deficits and participation in daily activities of adults with TBI at discharge and one month post-discharge. A double-blind (assessors) randomized control trial (RCT) with two groups, experimental and control. This study will include 40 adults hospitalized …
Treating Mild Traumatic Brain Injury With High Definition Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
The purpose of the study is to test whether low level electric stimulation, called transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS), on the part of the brain (i.e., presupplementary motor area) thought to aid in memory will improve verbal retrieval in military veteran participants with histories of traumatic brain injuries. The primary …
Hyperbaric Oxygen Brain Injury Treatment Trial
The purpose of this innovative adaptive phase II trial design is to determine the optimal combination of hyperbaric oxygen treatment parameters that is most likely to demonstrate improvement in the outcome of severe TBI patients in a subsequent phase III trial.
Improving Anticipatory and Compensatory Postural Responses to Avoid Falls After TBI
The purpose of this study is to assess a balance training program to see if it can be helpful to avoid falls in people who have had traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). The study will include 3 groups: TBI Intervention group , TBI Control Group, and healthy control group. TBI Intervention …
Standard Craniectomy Against Laparotomy for the Treatment of Traumatic Rise in Intracranial Pressure and the Effect on Long-term Outcome
Intractable high intracranial pressures (ICP) are associated with poor functional outcomes and mortality, so the SCALPEL trials aims to evaluate the effect of decompressive craniectomy against decompressive laparotomy to lower those pressures in diffuse TBI. The primary outcome measure for that evaluation is functional outcome after 12 months on the …
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 …
