Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of a single intravenous infusion of autologous umbilical cord blood (UCB) for the treatment of pediatric patients with spastic cerebral palsy.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of a cord blood infusion in children who have motor disability due to cerebral palsy (CP). The subjects will be children whose parents have saved their infant's cord blood, who have non-progressive motor disability, and whose parents intend to have a cord blood infusion.
The purpose of this study is to determine wether NP031112 is safe and effective in the treatment of mild to moderate Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
This clinical trial is being conducted to study lung function and movement of the major muscle involved in breathing (the diaphragm) after a brachial plexus nerve block (nerve "freezing"). The purpose of this study is to find out what effects (good and bad) ultrasound guided nerve freezing has on the movement of the patient's diaphragm and their lung function. The potential advantage of ultrasound guidance will be a lesser chance of freezing the nerves that innervate the diaphragm and thus having less of an effect on lung function.
Evaluation of Wire Electrodes to Activate the Expiratory Muscles to Restore Cough
Objective: Quantify the benefits of myofunctional therapy associated to botulinum toxin injection in patients with long standing facial unilateral palsy.
This study will test a drug called MGAWN1 for the treatment of West Nile infections.
The current study sought to determine the reliability of the rehabilitation protocol using the labial commissure angle (LCA) as an indicator of both muscle tonus and therapeutic success. The investigators hypothesized that this measurement would provide objective data regarding the efficacy of rehabilitation for these challenging patients.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of robotic-assisted locomotor therapy on improvements of functional gait parameters in ambulatory children with cerebral palsy.
The purpose of this study is to determine which pain management strategy continuous analgesic pump or orally-should be used in the management of children with cerebral palsy.
