Brain Balance Study
A moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurring in early or middle adulthood might have long-lasting effects on the brain that can accelerate the decline of physical and cognitive function in older age. The proposed study seeks to better understand the implications of aging with a TBI, in order to help …
Study to Improve Ambulation in Individuals With TBI Using Virtual Reality -Based Treadmill Training
The purpose of this research study is to test the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) based treadmill training on walking ability. The study will also help to understand the changes in cognitive ability and brain activity as a result of VR-based treadmill training after a brain injury. The study will …
Buspirone for the Treatment of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Irritability and Aggression
The purpose of this study is to improve behavior control displayed by persons with traumatic brain injury by assessing effectiveness of treatments for post-TBI irritability and aggression.
Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback Following Traumatic Brain Injury
Individuals with mild traumatic brain injury will be randomly assigned to an active heart rate variability biofeedback condition and a sham condition. The investigators will use a randomized pre-post design that will consist of two data collection phases and a 5-week treatment condition. The heart rate variability biofeedback active condition …
High Intensity Step Training After Traumatic Brain Injury
This study will explore whether the types and intensity of the interventions being delivered will yield measurable cognitive benefits in addition to improved mobility and balance. The study evaluates three therapeutic approaches to improve mobility and balance after traumatic brain injury (TBI): Conventional Gait and Balance Training, high intensity step …
Functional Recovery Effect of Bloodletting Puncture at Jing-well Points on Acute Brain Injury Patients
Traumatic brain injury (Traumatic brain injury, TBI) can be derived from various forms of injury, including blunt trauma, penetrating or acceleration/deceleration force caused by head injury.There are some study data show that acupuncture treatment has a superficial effect on the prognosis of traumatic brain injury and can limit the progression …
Combinatory Rehabilitation Used for Substantially Helping Individuals With Traumatic Brain Injury
New learning and memory impairment (NLMI) is a common and devastating manifestation of TBI associated with substantial life burdens. Persons with moderate to severe TBI have shown improvement in NLM for prose material (e.g. story) as well as beneficial changes in default-mode network (DMN) activation during list-learning19 following treatment with …
Assessment of the Effects of Early Proprioceptive Stimulations in Patients With Severe Traumatic Brain Injury
"Severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a serious condition, common in young adults. It leads to sensorimotor and cognitive sequelae that hinder social reintegration. Neuronal plasticity must be used quickly before natural recovery impedes neuronal regrowth. In this respect, stopping sedation as soon as possible and early mobilization, even if …
Robotic Balance Training to Improve Postural Control and Balance Post-Traumatic Brain Injury
The purpose of this study is to assess a balance training program to see if it can be helpful to improve balance and avoid falls in people who have had traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). The study will involve three groups of research subjects: 1) TBI-intervention group, 2) TBInon -intervention group …
Different Feeding in Traumatic Brain Injury Patients
This was a multicenter randomized controlled study of 98 severe Traumatic Brain Injury patients with tracheostomy. Patients enrolled were divided randomly into the observation group with Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding or the control group with Nasogastric tube feeding for enteral nutrition support, respectively. Nutritional status, complications, decannulation of tracheostomy tubes …
