Hunova training to improve trunk control after spinal cord injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether Hunova training can help improve balance and control of your trunk (middle body) after a spinal cord injury. It compares a training program against a different study approach, and may help you sit and move more safely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a spinal cord injury (from any cause).
- Your nerve-function level must be in the AIS A or B range up to the T1 level, or AIS C or D up to the C4 level.
- Your condition must be stable, with the injury happening no more than 6 months ago.
- You must be able to sit up on your own (or with support as allowed) for at least 1 hour continuously.
- You need to be able to participate in person and understand/consent to the study.
- You cannot currently have certain issues like a breathing tube that needs suction or a spine brace (orthosis).

This study compares wheelchair treadmill training with regular exercises to see which better improves trunk (core) balance for people with spinal cord injuries. If you use a manual wheelchair and have an injury at T6 or below, this trial may help you find a better way to strengthen your core.
This study looks at a treatment to improve how well you can balance and stay steady while moving if you have a spinal cord injury. It may help with side-to-side (lateral) balance and walking control.
This trial tests a special stimulation device (a “neuroprosthesis”) to help people with spinal cord injury improve how they sit upright and maintain balance. If you meet safety and readiness requirements, it may help your trunk and pelvic muscles work more effectively during posture and balance tasks.
This trial uses technology to help people with eating disorders improve their balance and movement. It tests a rehabilitation program that may help you feel steadier and more confident.
This study tests a noninvasive kind of back stimulation, used alongside usual therapy, to help improve balance and trunk (core) control after spinal cord injury. It may help people who still have trouble sitting upright or reaching while staying balanced.
This study compares two types of physical therapy exercises to see which one better helps stroke survivors improve trunk control, balance, and daily activities. It may be a good fit if you had an ischemic stroke and are between 6 months and 1.5 years into recovery.
