1. A Study to Assess Wrist Range of Motion via Telemedicine

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to assess the accuracy of range of motion (ROM) measurements of the wrist and hand taken in person versus ROM taken during a telemedicine video interview.

2. Investigation of Neurocognitive Measures of Sport-Related Injury

   Rochester, Minn.

   The overall objective is to provide an onsite diagnosis with subsequent return to play criteria, as well as, lower the risk of traumatic brain injury by primary prevention through cervical spine neuromuscular control and vision training. The central hypothesis is that improved understanding of neurocognitive measures and function will provide improved diagnosis of concussion and help reduce the incidence of subsequent sports-related injury.

3. To Assess the Effectiveness, Safety, and Tolerability of INCB000928 in Participants With Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety, tolerability, and PK of INCB000928 over a 24-week treatment period followed by a 52-week, open-label extension period.

4. A Study to Establish a Pediatric Spine Registry

   Rochester, Minn., Minneapolis, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to collect data about patients with chest wall and spinal deformities to develop a multicenter registry.  This will speed the pace of medical advancement and treatment recommendations for these conditions. 

5. Minnesota Spinal Cord Injury Data Network

   Rochester, Minn.

   This is a study to generate feasibilty data regarding the collection of health and psychosocial outcomes after acquired spinal cord injury (SCI)

6. Epidural and Dorsal Root Stimulation in Humans with Spinal Cord Injury

   Rochester, Minn.

   A study to compare electrophysiologic activity of epidural stimulation and dorsal root ganglion stimulation, as well as quantify changes in motor performance with both types of stimulation over the course of 10 rehabilitation sessions.

7. Comparative Effectiveness of Pulmonary Embolism Prevention After Hip and Knee Replacement

   Rochester, Minn.

   PEPPER is a randomized study comparing the three most commonly used anticoagulants in North America in patients who have elected to undergo primary or revision hip or knee joint replacement surgery. The anticoagulants being compared are enteric coated aspirin, low intensity warfarin, and rivaroxaban.

8. A Study to Evaluate Outcomes of Rotator Cuff Repair

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is evaluate the outcomes and complications in patients who underwent a rotator cuff repair.

9. A Study to Evaluate Analgesic Use and Duration for Pediatric Long Bone Fractures

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to develop an evidenced-based guideline for pediatric opioid prescribing guideline from the emergency department for long bone fractures to more closely tailor pain management to abuse potential. 

10. A Study of Simulated Sylvian Fissure Dissection Under Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Conditions Using a Rodent Microvascular Anastomosis Model

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to assess the differences in microvascular anastomosis outcomes between the experiment aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH)-like conditions and control animals.
