Study of research care for new spinal cord injuries
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at people after a recent, serious injury—especially a new spinal cord injury—to see how research and clinical knowledge can be improved. Depending on your group (spinal cord injury, other trauma, or healthy), you may be invited to participate if you meet age and injury timing needs.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be at least 18 years old
- Be in one of these groups: new spinal cord injury, new non-spinal traumatic injury, or generally healthy with no recent traumatic injury
- If you are not in the spinal cord injury group: you must not have ever had a spinal cord injury
- If you are not in the spinal cord injury group: you must not have had other brain or nervous system injuries (like stroke, traumatic brain injury, or seizures)
- You must not be pregnant

This trial studies how nerve pathways in the spinal cord help control movements in people with spinal cord injury. It may help researchers better understand movement control and could lead to improved rehab strategies.
This study is looking at how well a special education program helps people with spinal cord injuries manage their health and daily life after leaving the hospital. It is for adults who recently finished their first rehabilitation stay and have a spinal cord injury from the C5 level or lower.
This study uses MRI scans to look at brain and body changes after a spinal cord injury. It may help researchers understand how the nervous system recovers over time.
This study uses brain and spine scans (and possibly nerve stimulation in some cases) to understand how the nervous system changes after spinal cord injury or certain spinal conditions. It may help researchers better track recovery and understand which changes are linked to symptoms like bladder problems.
This study looks at how people with spinal cord injury (SCI) feel and picture their bodies. If you have had an SCI for one year or longer, you may help doctors better understand and measure this sense of body awareness.
This trial tests a type of arm and hand exercise training to see if it helps the brain and nerves recover after a recent spinal cord injury in the neck. It may help people who have some movement left in their arms or hands.
