NCT ID: NCT06419517 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Pelvic Floor Muscle Weakness

Pelvic Muscle Training and Electrostimulation to Treat Weak Pelvic Floor

Start date: May 17, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This research will determine 1) whether the very weak pelvic floor can be improved with surface electromyography (s-EMG)-triggered electrostimulation added to pelvic floor muscle training and 2) whether sEMG-triggered electrostimulation added to pelvic floor muscle training can reduce leakage in Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI)

NCT ID: NCT06410950 Recruiting - Copd Clinical Trials

Mechanical Muscle Proprieties in Patient With COPD

Start date: May 13, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study aims to determine if patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) exhibit altered muscle properties (specifically changes in tone and stiffness) in both their respiratory muscles and skeletal muscles when compared to healthy individuals. The study will utilize the Myotonometer, a non-invasive device, to assess these properties.

NCT ID: NCT06238609 Recruiting - Muscle Weakness Clinical Trials

Neuromodulation for Prevention of Intensive Care Unit Acquired Weakness and Post Intensive Care Syndrome

Start date: August 28, 2023
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

Post-intensive care syndrome (PICS) encompasses persistent physical, cognitive, and psychiatric symptoms following ICU discharge, commonly triggered by serious conditions such as respiratory failure, sepsis, and mechanical ventilation. PICS prevalence is reported to be as high as 84% up to 12 months in patients with at least 2 days spent in the ICU or with mechanical ventilatory support. As a consequence, many patients do not return to they former level of function for weeks, months and even years. Muscular affection manifested by muscle weakness is particularly seen and is provoked by a combination of damage to the nerves or directly the muscles fibers. This affection is referred to as CU-Acquired Weakness (ICUAW). One third of the time, lower extremities are affected, often due to prolonged immobilization or sedation. Evidence suggests that early mobilization reduces the incidence of ICUAW at discharge and improves the number of patients able of stand. However achieving this early intervention is not always feasible due to time or personnel constraints. The purpose of the study is to examine the effectiveness of lower extremity neuromodulation for prevention of muscle deconditioning in patients admitted to the ICU.

NCT ID: NCT06210763 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Intensive Care Unit Acquired Weakness

IMT Outcomes in Sufferers of Severe Walking Disabilities and Intensive Care Unit Acquired Weakness

Start date: August 2, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICU-acquired weakness) may be caused by a variety of different causes. Several studies have shown that ICU-acquired weakness occurs in up to 30% of critically ill patients. It affects daily activities, walking, and functional performance

NCT ID: NCT06193980 Recruiting - Sepsis Clinical Trials

Exercise Testing in ICU Survivors to Evaluate ICU-acquired Weakness

Start date: December 15, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study aims to investigate how sepsis and shock can impair microcirculation in intensive care unit (ICU) patients, which can lead to long-lasting muscle weakness/dysfunction or ICU-Acquired Weakness (ICU-AW) and exercise limitations.

NCT ID: NCT06023316 Recruiting - Stroke Clinical Trials

mGain - sEMG-based Gamified Therapy for Improved Upper Limb Rehabilitation

Start date: August 8, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this Phase I study is to conduct a pilot clinical trial using a mobile app-connected, wire-free surface electromyography (sEMG) system, called mGain, that provides biofeedback-based therapy in individuals with upper limb weakness due to neurologic injury or with upper limb amputation. Our overarching hypothesis is that the mGain wireless sEMG device and mobile therapeutic gaming environment will demonstrate improved adherence to therapy when compared to standard of care and will be feasible, acceptable, and usable in individuals with upper limb weakness or limb amputation. All participants will undertake four weeks of therapy. Conducting therapy five days a week for 30 minutes a day. In addition, participants will have an initial and final assessment visit at a study site, with each visit expected to last 1-2 hours.

NCT ID: NCT05929755 Recruiting - Pain, Postoperative Clinical Trials

Depo-Medrol on Psoas After LLIF

Start date: May 12, 2023
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this study is to determine the effects of a corticosteroid administered to the psoas muscle following a transpsoas lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) on postoperative hip flexor weakness and thigh pain and numbness.

NCT ID: NCT05929027 Recruiting - Stroke Clinical Trials

Self-Administered Gaming and Exercise at Home (SAGEH)

SAGEH
Start date: September 28, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aims at comparing manual function outcomes between the standard of care and additional self-administered hand therapy after stroke. Strokes are common neurological injuries, and although rates of survival have increased in recent decades, survivors often continue to experience deficiencies in hand dexterity and bimanual function. Most motor recovery takes place within the first 3 months after a stroke. This initial period is necessary for stabilizing the patient but also provides different opportunities to foster motor recovery. Functional gains, including instances after the post-acute period, have been observed after regular and frequent (high dosage) therapy, suggesting that recovery is likely influenced by practice-driven sensorimotor learning. These findings motivate the implementation of daily therapeutic regimes beyond post-stroke hospitalization and basic motor function, aiming instead at addressing overlooked deficiencies in manipulation and bimanual coordination. While some hand therapy is often provided during outpatient therapy visits (the standard of care), self-administered sessions play a large role in implementing additional daily therapy. As a result, the investigators are interested in both the implementation of self-administered regimes and measuring clinical outcomes with and without self-administered therapy.

NCT ID: NCT05826847 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Prone Positioning and Abdominal Binding on Lung and Muscle Protection in ARDS Patients During Spontaneous Breathing

Start date: December 6, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction and intensive care unit (ICU)-acquired weakness are two consequences of prolonged mechanical ventilation and critical illness in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Both complicate the process of withdrawing mechanical ventilation, increase hospital mortality and cause chronic disability in survivors. During transition from controlled to spontaneous breathing, these complications of critical illness favor an abnormal respiratory pattern and recruit accessory respiratory muscles which may promote additional lung and muscle injury. The type of ventilatory support and positioning may affect the muscle dysfunction and patient-self-inflicted lung injury at spontaneous breathing onset. In that regard, ARDS patients with ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction and ICU-acquired weakness who are transitioning from controlled to partial ventilatory support probably present an abnormal respiratory pattern which exacerbates lung and muscle injury. Physiological-oriented ventilatory approaches based on prone positioning or semi recumbent positioning with abdominal binding at spontaneous breathing onset, could decrease lung and muscle injury by favoring a better neuromuscular efficiency, and preventing intense inspiratory efforts and high transpulmonary driving pressures, as well as high-magnitude pendelluft. In the current project, in addition to perform a multimodal description of the severity of ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction and ICU-acquired weakness in prolonged mechanically ventilated ARDS patients, prone positioning and supine plus thoracoabdominal binding at spontaneous breathing onset will be evaluated.

NCT ID: NCT05815017 Recruiting - Physical Inactivity Clinical Trials

YOOMI: Effect of Gamified Physical Therapy Exercise Software on Inpatient Mobility

YOOMI
Start date: November 29, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Patients admitted to the hospital often develop functional impairments due to being in bed most of the day. Each day of bedrest leads to significant muscle loss. As a result, many patients become dependent on others or require rehabilitation at a facility to improve mobility and function prior to returning home. Staff in the hospital is limited and often unable to mobilize patients every day while hospitalized. The investigators are testing a new experimental gamified physical therapy exercise software to see if it can be a fun, enjoyable way to help mobilize patients without the assistance of staff. The primary aim of this pilot/proof of concept study is to determine whether gamified physical therapy software can help inpatients exercise within the safety of their own beds and preserve pre-hospitalization function.
