NCT03677661
Neck pain, dizziness and headache are common symptoms following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). The efficacy of cervical spine and vestibular-ocular system impairments intervention need to be determined. In this randomized clinical trial, a 6-week personalized clinical rehabilitation program on subacute mTBI will be compare to a conventional approach. The rehabilitation program will include cervical spine exercise combined with manual therapy as well as vestibular-ocular rehabilitation. Overall symptoms will be measured by the Post-Concussion Symptoms Scale (PCSS). Disability and symptoms severity related with neck pain, headache and dizziness will also be evaluated after the treatment period and at 6-week post-treatment.
NCT03985176
Despite the advances in neurosurgical and -radiological techniques and intensive care, the mortality and morbidity rates in SAH have not changed in recent years. There is still only a limited understanding of the mechanisms of secondary insults causing brain injury after SAH, also called delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). In this study, the investigators are exploring the use of quantifiable biomarkers from blood and continuous EEG monitoring as tools for the diagnostics of DCI. Additionally, the investigators are looking into other clinical variables (eg. pain, heart function) as factors of DCI.

NCT05612464
Dystonia is a severely disabling movement disorder with no cure, in which people suffer painful muscle spasms causing twisting movements and abnormal postures. There are many causes, including genetic conditions and brain injury. The most common cause in childhood is dystonic cerebral palsy (CP) which often affects the whole body. The underlying mechanisms are unknown, but there is growing evidence to implicate abnormal brain processing by the brain of incoming "sensory" information (e.g., signals to the brain from our senses of touch and body position): the distorted perception of these signals disrupts the way the brain produces instructions for planning and performing movements. The investigator's previous studies have shown that the way the brain processes sensory information related to movement is abnormal in children with dystonia and dystonic CP, by using methods that record the EEG (electroencephalogram - brain wave signals) and/or EMG (electromyogram - electrical signal from muscles). A specific brain rhythm (called mu) typically shows well-defined changes in response to movement, and reflects processing of sensory information. The investigator's work shows these rhythm changes are abnormal in children with dystonia/dystonic CP. This study will explore if these findings can improve treatment. In particular the study team will investigate whether children and young people with dystonia/dystonic CP can enhance these mu rhythm responses during a movement task by using feedback of their brain rhythms displayed as a cartoon/game on a computer. The investigators will also assess whether enhanced mu activity is associated with improved movement control. This would open future possibilities to use such devices for therapy/rehabilitation. Children and young people with dystonia/dystonic CP aged 5-25 years will be recruited, along with age-matched controls. Studies will last 2-3 hours with time for breaks and will be conducted at Evelina London Children's Hospital and Barts Health Trust, with the option for home visits if preferable for families.

NCT05585333
Objective: Facial paralysis can be caused by a variety of etiological factors, complete palsy continues for two months, the chance of full recovery is reduced to zero. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) in the in patients undergoing facial paralysis over 8 weeks. Methods: This study was an open-label, not concurrent control study including 54 patients that underwent facial paralysis over 8 weeks. Patients were assigned to the PBMT group and control group, with 27 patients in each group. Laser treatments were applied 3 days a week after recruited. PBMT was delivered using a class IV Multi-wave Locked System that combines with a simultaneous 808 nm continuous emission and 905 nm pulse emission and the maximum peak power was 25 W. Clinical outcome measure comprised the House-Brackmann grading system, Facial Clinimetric Evaluation Scale (FaCE), Sunnybrook facial grading scale (SBFG), and electrophysiological testing, including Electroneuronography (ENoG), Electromyography (EMG) and Blink Reflex. All the measurements were collected at the first day and at the end of study. All reported P values were two-sided and were declared statistically significant when less than 0.05.

NCT02765789
Anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) glomerulonephritis is a rare autoimmune disease mediated by anti-GBM antibodies and characterized by acute renal failure due to diffuse crescentic glomerulonephritis. Established treatment is cyclophosphamide and corticosteroids to suppress anti-GBM production and daily plasma exchange to remove circulating anti-GBM antibodies. The vast majority of patients with anti-GBM glomerulonephritis develop irreversible end-stage renal failure despite this treatment. Immunoadsorption may lower anti-GBM titres more effectively than plasma exchange. The goal of this interventional open, non-randomized pilot study is to study the efficacy, adverse events, logistic feasibility and costs of immuno-adsorption for the removal of anti-GBM antibodies in patients with acute renal failure due to anti-GBM glomerulonephritis. Eight patients with acute renal failure due to anti-GBM glomerulonephritis with or without accompanying pulmonary involvement will be treated with daily immunoadsorption, instead of plasma exchange, until anti-GBM titres are undetectable. All other aspects of the treatment (e.g. immunosuppressive treatment, renal replacement therapy) will be standard. The primary study parameter is the number of days that anti-GBM antibody titre is above a toxic level, defined as \>30 ELISA units. Secondary study parameters are the tolerability and adverse events of immunoadsorption, the logistic feasibility defined as the time interval between diagnosis and start of first immunoadsorption treatment and costs of immunoadsorption.

NCT05460936
Cerebral Palsy is a developmental disorder caused by damage to the brain before, during or after birth. Spastic Cerebral Palsy is one of the most common types of cerebral Palsy. It affects about 80% of cerebral palsy. Spastic CP is characterized by increased muscle tone, jerky movements, joint stiffness, and muscle tightness. Spastic Cerebral primarily affects strength, coordination, and balance resulting in gait difficulties and affecting gross motor functioning. These abnormalities affect the very basic activities of daily life (ADLs). Even if the child is able to walk the motor skills are usually disturbed which are very important to improve and maintain gross motor functioning. Physical therapy plays a vital role in overcoming these issues.

NCT05417243
Introduction: Trauma accounts for nearly 10% of the global burden of disease. Several trauma life support programs aim to improve trauma outcomes. There is no evidence from controlled trials to show the effect of these programs on patient outcomes. We describe the protocol of a pilot study that aims to assess the feasibility of conducting a cluster randomised controlled trial comparing Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) and Primary Trauma Care (PTC) with standard care. Methods and analysis: We will pilot a pragmatic three-armed parallel, cluster randomised, controlled trial in India, where neither of these programs are routinely taught. We will recruit tertiary hospitals and include trauma patients and residents managing these patients. Two hospitals will be randomised to ATLS, two to PTC, and two to standard care. The primary outcome will be all cause mortality at 30 days from the time of arrival to the emergency department. Our secondary outcomes will include patient, provider, and process measures. All outcomes except time to event outcomes will be measured both as final values as well as change from baseline. We will compare outcomes in three combinations of trial arms: ATLS versus PTC, ATLS versus standard care, and PTC versus standard care using absolute and relative differences along with associated confidence intervals. We will conduct subgroup analyses across the clinical subgroups men, women, blunt multisystem trauma, penetrating trauma, shock, severe traumatic brain injury, and elderly. In parallel to the pilot study we will conduct community consultations to inform the planning of the full-scale trial.
NCT05351918
Headache is one of the most common clinical problems. Conventional drug therapy is more successful when complementary and integrative medicine approaches are combined to conventional treatment, as traditional Chinese medicine (TKM). The success of acupuncture therapy depends on the selection of acupuncture points according to TKM pathological mechanisms. Correct selection of points are needed to treat migraine headaches.Acupuncture reduces the consumption of analgesics. In this prospective, randomised study we will compered two methods of acupuncture stimulation: in the control group, all patients will receive the same local points, commonly used to treat migraine in our department, in the study group, local points will be selected according to the site of the headache.
