This study tests a noninvasive spinal cord stimulation device for people with recent or long-term spinal cord injury. It aims to improve bladder function and is conducted in British Columbia, Canada, and Ukraine.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 19–65 - NCT06589362Recruiting
Nerve stimulation plus cognitive training for brain injury recovery
This study tests if a gentle, noninvasive nerve stimulation (on the neck) combined with computerized thinking exercises can help people recovering from a traumatic brain injury improve memory and attention. It is for adults currently in inpatient rehab who can use a keyboard and are medically stable.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–65 - NCT06590714Recruiting
Polmacoxib for pain after rotator cuff surgery
