Testing new treatments for spinal cord and brain injuries
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks for ways to test treatments for people with spinal cord injuries and/or brain injuries. It may help researchers better understand which treatment approaches work and for whom.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older
- You have a history of spinal cord injury and/or brain injury
- You can sign permission (HIPAA authorization) to share your past medical records and scans with the study
- You are not expected to live less than 6 months
- You are able and willing to give informed consent (or your legal representative can)

This trial is a registry that collects information about people 18 and older who have a first spinal cord injury caused by trauma. By sharing details, you help researchers better understand outcomes and care needs after these injuries.
This trial collects tissue samples from people with new spinal cord injuries to study recovery. It may help researchers understand how to improve treatment.
This study looks for a protein fragment in the blood that might help doctors quickly tell if someone has a serious spinal cord or brain injury. It involves people with recent injuries and healthy volunteers, and the goal is to develop a simple blood test for emergency care.
This study is looking for people with a spinal cord injury from a blunt force (not a penetrating injury like a gunshot or stab wound) to see if certain substances in the blood (called biomarkers) can help doctors understand the injury better and predict recovery. It involves an initial blood sample within 24 hours of the injury and follow-up assessments.
This study tests how spinal cord stimulation affects brain activity in people with spinal cord injuries. It aims to understand the physiological effects using EEG (a brainwave test).
This study collects information and/or tissue for a research library from people who have had neurosurgery and from certain family members. It helps researchers study brain, blood-vessel, injury, tumor, and related conditions.
