The goal of this trial is to learn about the feasibility and benefits of delivering a pelvic floor muscle training program to people with motor-incomplete spinal cord injury. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To evaluate the feasibility of delivering a pelvic floor muscle training program to people with spinal cord injury. The investigators will examine recruitment rate, compliance and adherence to the intervention and other study protocols, adverse events, and participant perspectives of the study protocols. 2. To explore the potential effectiveness of pelvic floor muscle training on pelvic floor, bladder, bowel, and sexual function. Participants will be asked to complete a pelvic floor muscle training program for 3 months. At the beginning, middle, and end of the program, researchers will conduct a series of tests to determine the feasibility and potential effectiveness of this program.

CPAP vs BiPAP for Sleep Apnea

Vancouver, British Columbia
Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is common in individuals with cervical spinal cord injuries, with studies suggesting prevalence rates ranging from 27% to 62%. The condition often leads to daytime sleepiness, fatigue, and poor participation in rehabilitation. Positive airway pressure therapy can be used to treat the condition; however, some individuals find continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), which applies the same pressure during inhalation and exhalation, difficult to use. Bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) offers different pressures for inhalation and exhalation, which may be more comfortable and potentially improve adherence in this patient population. However, limited evidence compares CPAP and BiPAP in individuals with cervical spinal cord injuries. This pilot study will enroll 32 adult participants with cervical spinal cord injuries who have moderate to severe SDB (defined as an AHI of 15 events/hour or greater). Participants will be randomly assigned to either CPAP or BiPAP therapy for 4 weeks. Device usage per night will be measured, and data on daytime sleepiness, fatigue, and sleep quality will be collected at baseline, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks. The investigators aim to determine whether BiPAP improves adherence and symptoms compared to CPAP in this patient population.

The purpose of our study is to evaluate vibrotactile Coordinated Reset (vCR) and its effects on spasticity symptoms in incomplete spinal cord injured patients. vCR will be administered with a device called the Stanford CR Glove. vCR is expected to provide patients with a non-invasive alternative to the most widely used treatments such as oral baclofen and or deep brain stimulation. Patients will be followed for three months and will be asked to come to the lab for clinical testing 4 times during this period. A total of 30 patients will be included in the study.

Why Other Patients Applied

"I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."

"I have dealt with voice and vocal fold issues related to paralysis for over 12 years. This problem has negatively impacted virtually every facet of my life. I am an otherwise healthy 48 year old married father of 3 living. My youngest daughter is 12 and has never heard my real voice. I am now having breathing issues related to the paralysis as well as trouble swallowing some liquids. In my research I have seen some recent trials focused on helping people like me."

"As a healthy volunteer, I like to participate in as many trials as I'm able to. It's a good way to help research and earn money."

"I've been struggling with ADHD and anxiety since I was 9 years old. I'm currently 30. I really don't like how numb the medications make me feel. And especially now, that I've lost my grandma and my aunt 8 days apart, my anxiety has been even worse. So I'm trying to find something new."

ADHD PatientAge: 31

"I've tried several different SSRIs over the past 23 years with no luck. Some of these new treatments seem interesting... haven't tried anything like them before. I really hope that one could work."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Muscle Injuries clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Muscle Injuries clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Muscle Injuries trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Muscle Injuries is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Muscle Injuries medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Muscle Injuries clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Vibrotactile Therapy for Spinal Cord Injury, Ankle Braces for Ankle Sprains and CPAP vs BiPAP for Sleep Apnea to the Power online platform.
