Research Project
Locomotor Function Following Acute Intermittent Hypoxia and Transcutaneous Electrical Spinal Cord Stimulation in Individuals with Spinal Cord Injury
The purpose of this study is to determine if acute intermittent hypoxia therapy (AIH) combined with transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) during ambulation training improves locomotor function in individuals with spinal cord injury.
Research Project
Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation in Combination with Gait Training in Stroke Survivors
The purpose of this study is to evaluate and predict the short and long-term effects of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) + gait training on gait symmetry, gait performance, and corticospinal circuitry in individuals with chronic stroke.
Research Project
Towards the Development of a 3D Imaging and Classification System for Exoskeleton Systems
This study aims to validate a proposed solution that will provide users a practical way to adjust their exoskeleton/bionic suit's gait to precisely achieve their navigational goals.
Research Project
Improving Adherence to Exercise Guidelines Using Smartphone-Based Technology and E-coaching: A Proof-of-Concept SMART-Design Study
In this Spinal Cord Injury Model Systems (SCIMS) Site Specific Project, our research team will conduct a proof-of-concept project in which we use Sequential Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial (SMART) design to test an intervention to enhance adherence to exercise guidelines in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) by using smartphone technology, ecological momentary assessment (EMA) monitoring, and e-coaching.
Research Project
Patient Engagement Intervention in Inpatient Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation
We believe that EMR can be adapted successfully and that the manual and materials can be customized for use in inpatient SCI units. We anticipate that EMR will bring better experiences and outcomes to patients. Patients will engage more and put more effort into therapy, and they will have more positive changes in daily function, mood, and satisfaction than the SOC group.
Research Project
Error-enhanced Learning & Recovery in 2 & 3 Dimensions
a NIH funded grant (James Patton, PI) investigating differences in outcomes using models that describe how a person responds to error during practice, so we can prescribe the best therapeutic training.
