Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to examine usability of a locally built adaptive rower for people with spinal cord injury using an established and tested design. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What exercise intensity of activity do users achieve on the rower for steady state and interval rowing plans? 2. What assistance is required for setup and usage of the adaptive rower? 3. What do users think about the ease of use and what is their satisfaction with the adaptive rower? Participants will complete a one-time exercise session with two adaptive rower bouts (10-15 minutes each) with a rest period in between.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn more about the enteric nervous system (ENS) and the intestinal epithelial barrier (IEB) in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). The main questions it aims to answer are : - to characterize the functional (permeability, serotonin production, enteric neuronal phenotype, etc.), proteomic (junction molecules) and transcriptomic (inflammation genes, neuromediator expression, etc.) remodeling of the colonic mucosa and ENS in SCI patients, in comparison with control data. - to correlate intestinal permeability (and all remodeling parameters) with the type of neurological impairment i.e. the neurological level of the lesion, quantification of neurological impairment (motor and sensory scores) and the completeness and incompleteness of a lesion. - to identify a link with disease severity markers - to identify therapeutic targets that could subsequently be tested in the animal model before being proposed in clinical trials. Participants will have colonic biopsies taken following a colonoscopy/rectosigmoidoscopy previously indicated for spinal cord injured patients. Biopsies will be obtained from the right and left colon.
The purpose of this research is to assess the effectiveness of a nutrition education program in increasing nutrition knowledge and improving health-related biomarkers in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI).
Individuals with and without neurologic diagnoses greatly benefit from participation in regular exercise but the majority are physically inactive. This is an issue for both them and their care partners as their health is often linked. This study aims to examine the long-term physical and psychosocial effects of structured, group-based, high intensity functional training (HIFT) exercise for people with neurologic diagnoses and their care partners.
The global objective of this study is to establish the safety and investigate the potential treatment effect of an intravenous infusion of HB-adMSCs (Hope Biosciences adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells) on brain structure, neurocognitive/functional outcomes, and neuroinflammation after traumatic brain injury and/or hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy in adults.
There is no educational injury prevention model uniquely suited for kindergarten and first grade (K-1) students. The Teddy Bear Injury Clinic (TBIC) is a unique modification of the teddy bear clinic to facilitate classroom injury prevention teaching The TBIC will be administered to K-1 students, aged 5-7 years. Initial analysis will be descriptive and qualitative. Subsequent randomization of students to test and control groups followed by statistical analysis will be done to evaluate for effectiveness of the educational model
The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate the safety and preliminary effectiveness of the ARC-IM Therapy to improve hemodynamic management in people with sub-acute or chronic spinal cord injury. Participants will be implanted with the ARC-IM Thoracic System which aim to deliver, at the low thoracic level, targeted epidural electrical stimulation that will support natural hemodynamic control.
Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is a procedure that has the goal to stabilize trauma patients with non-compressible torso hemorrhage by temporarily occluding the aorta with a ballon catheter to increase central perfusion and stop uncontrollable bleeding from the diaphragm downwards. The investigators are planning to evaluate all patients who had a REBOA catheter placed at their clinic or in the pre-clinical setting from the start of 2019 to the 31.12.2022 who were transferred to their clinic, with basic demographic and clinical data, the procedural specifics, and their potential complications.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of allogeneic umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of radiation-induced rectal injury.
Acute renal injury (AKI) is a common complication after cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC), and is associated with worse outcomes. Available evidences show that maintaining intraoperative urine output ≥ 200 ml/h by fluid and furosemide administration may reduce the incidence of AKI in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass. The investigators hypothesize that, for patients undergoing CRS-HIPEC, intraoperative urine-volume guided hydration may also reduce the incidence of postoperative AKI.
