Body awareness study for adults with spinal cord injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You must have had a spinal cord injury (complete or incomplete) for at least one year.
- You must be medically stable.
- You must be able to read and understand English.
- You must have internet access and a device like a computer, phone, or iPad, and be willing to come to University of Minnesota for in-person testing.

This trial tests a multisensory approach to help people with spinal cord injury better perceive their body and reduce long-term nerve pain. It combines body awareness exercises with sensory feedback to see if it can ease pain and improve quality of life.
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 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.
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 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 tests how quickly people with spinal cord injuries can imagine movement (like picturing left or right). It helps doctors understand mental processing after injury, which may guide future rehab.
