GhentAges Any age - NCT07234903Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation therapy for walking recovery
This trial tests if an electrical stimulation device placed in the spine can help people with spinal cord injury improve their ability to walk. It is for adults who had a traumatic injury either very recently (within 6 weeks) or more than a year ago.
Nottwil, Canton of LucerneAges 18–65 - NCT05756894Recruiting
Stimulation therapy to improve breathing after spinal cord injury
This trial studies a neurostimulation approach to help breathing problems after a spinal cord injury. You may be able to join if you have a certain type and level of spinal cord injury and breathing weakness, and you can safely attend study visits with caregiver support.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–85 - NCT07222046Recruiting

This study tests a rehabilitation program using magnetic or electrical stimulation to help improve movement and function after a spinal cord injury. It may help you regain strength and independence.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07225582Recruiting
Best sensory feedback for hand function after spinal injury
This study is for people who have already received the ReHAB system in a previous trial. It aims to find the best ways to use sensory feedback from the device to help with hand and arm function after tetraplegia.
Cleveland, OhioAges 22–65 - NCT07227740Recruiting
Testosterone treatment for blood vessel health after spinal cord injury
This study looks at whether low testosterone affects blood vessel health in men with recent spinal cord injury. It tests if testosterone replacement can help improve blood vessel function.
Englewood, ColoradoAges 18–89 - NCT07213986Recruiting

This trial tests a vibrating capsule to help people with spinal cord injury have more regular bowel movements. It might be an option if you have had a spinal cord injury for at least one year and follow a steady bowel program.
Houston, TexasAges 21 years+ - NCT07204184Recruiting
Spinal stimulation to improve recovery after spinal cord injury
This study tests a gentle electrical stimulation on the spine to help improve movement and recovery after a spinal cord injury. It uses a special therapy called transspinal stimulation while you walk in a robotic device.
Staten Island, New YorkAges 18–70 - NCT07210411Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation after spinal cord injury
