Recruiting studies in New Jersey
- NCT03096197Recruiting
Exoskeleton and spinal stimulation for long-term spinal cord injury
This trial tests whether an external walking-assist device (an exoskeleton) plus targeted spinal cord stimulation can help people with long-term spinal cord injury. It may be designed for wheelchair users who meet specific nerve function and bone health requirements.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–65 - NCT04879862Recruiting
Study of walking and bladder recovery after recent spinal injury
This study looks at how leg movement and bladder function change after an acute spinal cord injury. It’s meant for adults who recently injured their spine and cannot stand or move their leg joints on their own.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–65 - NCT04921592Recruiting
Arm therapy for people with chronic cervical spinal cord injury
This trial looks at an upper-arm exercise program for people with long-term (at least 6 months) spinal cord injuries in the neck area. It may help improve how you use your arms and manage stiffness, while also checking if the program is safe for participants.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05725499Recruiting
Check if skin stimulation lowers blood pressure drops after spinal injury
This study tests a skin “stimulation” treatment to see if it helps stabilize blood pressure in people with spinal cord injury who get low blood pressure when sitting up. If you often have dizziness, faintness, or low readings after changing positions, this trial may help find safer ways to manage it.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT05731986Recruiting
Skin nerve stimulation to raise blood pressure after spinal injury
This study tests whether a device that delivers mild electrical stimulation through the skin can improve low blood pressure after an acute spinal cord injury. It may help reduce episodes of dizziness or faint-feeling caused by blood pressure dropping when you sit up.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT06238492Recruiting
Boosting brain speed after spinal cord injury
This trial tests a program to help improve how quickly your brain processes information after a recent spinal cord injury. It focuses on people who are about 6 months post-injury.
East Hanover, New JerseyAges 18–59 - NCT06452264Recruiting
Early cognitive training for thinking speed after spinal cord injury
This study tests a computer-based training program to help people with recent spinal cord injury improve how quickly they process information. It aims to see if early cognitive training can help with thinking speed after injury.
East Hanover, New JerseyAges 18–65 - NCT06650202Recruiting
Robotic stand trainer and spinal cord stimulation for balance
This trial tests whether combining a robotic stand trainer with spinal cord epidural stimulation can improve balance in people with spinal cord injury. It is for individuals who already have an implanted stimulation unit and cannot stand on their own without it.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06773286Recruiting
Stimulation and therapy for hand function after spinal cord injury
This trial is testing a safe method of electrical stimulation through the skin (called transcutaneous stimulation) combined with physical therapy to help people who recently had a cervical spinal cord injury improve hand and arm function. It is designed for people who are still in the hospital rehab setting.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT06841198Recruiting
Heart and blood vessel health after spinal cord injury
This study looks at how the heart and blood vessels change in the first year after a spinal cord injury. It also tests if electrical stimulation can help improve low blood pressure, which is common after injury.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT07501429RecruitingPhase 1
Shockwave therapy for arm spasticity after spinal cord injury
This trial tests whether shockwave therapy can reduce muscle tightness in the elbow and wrist caused by spinal cord injury. It may help make daily tasks like dressing or bathing easier.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07625332RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Galantamine for Metabolic Syndrome in Spinal Cord Injury
This study tests whether a medication called galantamine can help improve metabolic syndrome (a cluster of health conditions including obesity, high blood sugar, and high cholesterol) in people with chronic spinal cord injury. The goal is to see if this treatment can reduce health risks and improve overall wellness.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 21–75 - NCT06349434Recruiting
Powered arm brace for spinal cord injury recovery
This trial tests whether a powered wearable device (Myo-Pro) can help people with spinal cord injury improve arm and hand function for daily activities. It is designed for those who already have some arm movement and want to regain more independence.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–80 - NCT06643312Recruiting
Treadmill training with spinal stimulation for standing after spinal cord injury
This trial tests whether combining treadmill training with spinal cord stimulation (TPAD) can help people with severe spinal cord injuries regain the ability to stand. It aims to improve standing function and may lead to better recovery.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06814015Recruiting
Self-balancing exoskeleton for spinal cord injury
This trial tests a self-balancing exoskeleton (a wearable robotic device) to help people with spinal cord injury stand and walk. It is for people with injury at or above T6, at least 6 months past injury, and a caregiver who can help during the study visits.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07042815Enrolling by invitation
Long-term follow-up for spinal cord stimulation after injury
This trial checks on people who already have a spinal cord stimulator from past research, to see how well it works over time. It looks at safety and how the device affects daily life.

What taking part in a spinal cord injuries study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
