Health Information for Persons With Spinal Cord Injury

Spinal Cord Injuries (SCI)

The goal of this pilot study is to design and feasibility test a mobile phone text messaging (SMS) self-management intervention for persons with spinal cord injury (PwSCI). The project will focus on providing a 16-week text messaging intervention on the secondary health conditions of bowel/bladder management, pain, pressure injury, and psychosocial health. Our hopes are to reduce the impact of secondary health conditions (SHC) for PwSCI. The project hopes to test whether the developed self-management program will be feasible and superior to a control group. determine the feasibility and efficacy of the SMS intervention main questions the study aims to answer are: Participants will: Complete an initial assessment Participate in a 16-week text messaging program using their mobile phones Complete 4-week check-ins Complete a post assessment The main question\[s\] it aims to answer \[is/are\]: \[primary hypothesis or outcome measure 1\]? \[primary hypothesis or outcome measure 2\]? If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare \[arm information\] to see if \[insert effects\]. Participants will \[describe the main tasks participants will be asked to do, interventions they'll be given and use bullets if it is more than 2 items\].

Bacteriophage Therapy in Spinal Cord Injury Patients With Bacteriuria

Bacteriuria · Spinal Cord Injuries · Asymptomatic Bacteriuria

This is a Phase 1b study to assess the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of investigational phage therapy (IP) in adults with SCI and bladder colonization (ASB). It is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in adults with SCI with neurogenic bladders and bacteriuria who use indwelling catheters, or who require intermittent catheterization for bladder drainage.

Implementing a Decision Support Tool to Prevent Community-Acquired Pressure Injury in Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) in the Spinal Cord Injury Clinic

Spinal Cord Injury · Pressure Injury

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a permanent condition affecting every aspect of life including health, daily activities, and participation and quality of life. Persons with SCI are at high risk of pressure injury (PrI) throughout their lives due to loss of sensation, nerve damage and immobility. PrIs are local areas of damage to the skin and underlying soft tissue caused by pressure and shear commonly located over bony prominences. While most PrIs are hospital- or nursing home-acquired, in people with SCI, PrIs typically develop in the community. Community-acquired pressure injuries (CAPrIs) are common, devastating, and costly. This grant proposal will assess how well a decision support tool, called the Community Acquired Pressure Injury Prevention Field Implementation Tool (CAPP-FIT), is used in the clinic and how well it prevents CAPrIs. The CAPP-FIT will be implemented at seven sites across the country in a staggered fashion. The CAPP-FIT includes: 1) an automated Veteran survey to identify risks, actions, and resources needed to prevent CAPrIs and 2) a companion Provider Report immediately available in the electronic health record listing Veteran responses to survey items with recommended evidence-based provider actions. The Veteran survey can be completed via a secured email on the computer or phone. There are three aims in the proposal: Aim 1 is implementing the CAPP-FIT at the seven geographically diverse VA SCI clinics. After CAPP-FIT implementation, each site will determine how the CAPP-FIT will be maintained in clinical practice to support sustainability. Aim 2 assesses how well the CAPP-FIT prevents CAPrIs and CAPrI-associated hospitalizations and assesses provider and Veteran satisfaction. Aim 3 assesses how well the CAPP-FIT is implemented in the SCI clinic.

Remote Ischemic Conditioning for PwSCI

Spinal Cord Injuries

The long-term goal of this project is to improve the overall cardiometabolic health of persons with spinal cord injury (SCI). This pilot study will test the feasibility and acceptability of remote ischemic conditioning implemented in a home setting by persons with SCI and collect cardiometabolic health outcomes to inform appropriate outcomes for a future larger trial. Researchers will compare, RIC high dose using standard blood pressure cuff to RIC high dose using automated blood flow restriction cuff to RIC low dose using standard blood pressure cuff, to determine cardiometabolic health improvements amongst groups. Participants will: Complete an initial 2-day assessment, participate in a 6-week intervention using remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) within their home, complete a 2-day post assessment.

Nerve Transfer to Improve Function in High Level Tetraplegia

Cervical Spinal Cord Injury · Tetraplegia

The goal of this observational study is to determine if nerve transfer surgeries improve upper extremity function and quality of life in patients with a high level cervical spinal cord injury. Participants will: * undergo standard of care pre- and post-op testing and study exams * complete pre- and post-questionnaires * undergo standard of care nerve transfer surgeries * follow-up with surgeon at 6/12/18/24/36 and potentially at 48 months * attend therapy at local therapist for up to 2 years postop.

Spatiotemporal tSCS in Spinal Cord Injury

Spinal Cord Injuries (SCI)

Spinal cord injury leads to long-lasting impairment, and currently, there is no cure for paralysis. Although transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation has shown promising results in recovering lost movements, its poor selectivity in muscle recruitment compared to invasive approaches limits the type of rehabilitation exercises that can be practiced. This project studies how spatial, frequency, and amplitude control of stimulation can be used to selectively target different neural pathways and muscle groups.

Effectiveness of the Collaborative Community Clinic for Persons With Spinal Cord Injury and Disease

Spinal Cord Injuries

The investigator is evaluating data stored on the Collaborative Community Clinic data repository (IRB #201811032). Researchers seek to evaluate the effectiveness of the Collaborative Community Clinic (CCC), an occupational therapy student experiential learning clinic for uninsured or under-insured people with spinal cord injury and disease (SCI/D), using participants' initial and follow-up assessment batteries.
