What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused

Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This small early-stage study tests whether a device that combines augmented reality (AR) with functional electrical stimulation (FES) is safe and usable for people with cervical spinal cord injury. Seven participants will attend 20 one-hour sessions over 10 weeks, using the system to practice grasping objects. The main goal is to check for serious side effects and see if people can set up and use the system on their own. If successful, this approach might help improve hand function and independence.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Chronic cervical SCI * Any level or severity of cervical SCI, traumatic or non-traumatic * Can carry out object manipulations but with visible impairment (i.e., 5-25 on the GRASSP Prehension Performance sub-score). Exclusion Criteria: * Any disease or injury other than the SCI that may be affecting grasping performance. * Individuals with any self-reported FES contraindications (pacemakers, implantable defibrillator, implanted neurostimulation device, metallic implants in the stimulated areas, cardiac conditions, epilepsy, uncontrolled seizures, wounds or fractures on the target limb) * Inability to understand the study procedures * Muscles do not respond to FES to produce grasping movements * Currently participating in another upper limb rehabilitation intervention study (regular physical and occupational therapy is permitted).
