Virtual Reality for SCD VOC
This randomized pilot study will evaluate the feasibility, tolerability, and preliminary analgesic effect of headset-based virtual reality (VR) interventions for adults with sickle cell disease (SCD) experiencing vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) treated in an infusion center. Up to 50 participants will be enrolled, provide informed consent, and undergo randomization during routine …
Brain-Computer Interface Communication Device for People With ALS
This study compares a wearable brain-computer interface (BCI) communication device with the eye-tracking communication devices that people with ALS already use. As ALS progresses, speech is lost and many people come to rely on an eye-tracking speech generating device. Eye-tracking performance can decline as oculomotor control is affected, and some …

The main question it aims to answer is:Does the level of quality of life in PD patients and caregivers improve after empathy/(self-)compassion training?Participants will be delivered …
Trans-auricular Nerve Stimulation as an Innovative Approach to the Treatment of Pain in Pediatric Patients Suffering From Sickle Cell Disease
The goal of this study is to evaluate the effects of transauricular vagus and trigeminal nerve stimulation on the treatment of pain in children with Sickle Cell Disease.The primary objective is to determine the feasibility of using a tAN device to treat pain in pediatric participants with SCD by assessing …
High-flow Oxygen for Vaso-occlusive Pain Crisis
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by recurrent vaso-occlusive pain crisis (VOC), which may evolve to acute chest syndrome (ACS), the most common cause of death among adult patients with SCD. Currently, there is no safe and effective treatment to abort VOC or prevent secondary ACS. Management of VOC mostly …
