Study Arms (1)

Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Normobaric hyperoxia

Other: Normobaric Hyperoxia

Interventions

Intermittent normobaric hyperoxia (NBH) by increasing FiO2 to 100% for a duration of 4.5h (270 min), twice daily over five consecutive days. Instead of fixed 12-hour intervals between sessions, the two daily treatments will follow a pre-specified interval: a minimum of 1.5h (90min) between sessions for treatment B, and 10h (600min) for treatment A.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 85 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Provision of signed and dated ICF by the subject or LAR
  • Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures for the duration of the study
  • Male or female subjects, aged ≥18 and ≤ 85 years
  • Admitted with a diagnosis of blunt or penetrating traumatic cervical and/or thoracic SCI (maintaining dural sac integrity)
  • Awake and able to interact and follow commands
  • American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) Impairment Scale (AIS) grades A, B or C
  • Need for mechanical ventilation (MV), as determined by the treating physician
  • Baseline PaO2 \>80 mmHg before enrollment
  • Capacity to initiate the study intervention within 24 hours of injury

You may not qualify if:

  • Evidence of traumatic brain injury by neuroimaging (either CT or MRI) including, but not limited to, traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage, subdural hematoma, epidural hematoma, intracranial hemorrhage, parenchymal contusions, and blunt cerebrovascular injury grades II-V
  • AIS grades D or E at time of arrival to hospital
  • Persistent hypoxia requiring \>40% FiO2 to maintain PaO2 \>80 mmHg
  • Concurrent injuries contraindicating lumbar drain placement, including, but not limited to: signs of infection at insertion site, elevated intracranial pressure, supratentorial mass lesion with mass effect, posterior fossa mass or uncorrected coagulopathy (thrombocytopenia \<100,000/μL or International Normalized Ratio \>1.5)
  • Pre-existing neurologic conditions that would confound neurologic assessment or would make difficult to accurately assess neurologic and/or functional outcomes
  • Pre-existing respiratory or pulmonary conditions that would impact ventilation mechanics or confound the assessment of respiratory recovery
  • Participation in a concurrent investigational/interventional study (observational studies allowed)
  • Known to be pregnant, or with a positive pregnancy test
  • Vulnerable populations such as prisoners and inmates (abiding GCP per the study IRB)
  • Patient has any other clinically significant medical condition as determined by the investigator, that may unfavorably alter the risk-benefit of study participation, adversely affect study compliance, or confound interpretation of study results

Data Sharing

IPD Sharing
Will share

Individual participant data (IPD) underlying the primary results of this study-including de-identified clinical, physiologic, and outcome variables-will be made available following publication of the main results. Data will be shared in accordance with institutional policies and applicable regulations after all direct identifiers have been removed using a standardized de-identification protocol. The curated dataset, accompanying data dictionary, and analytic code (when applicable) will be deposited in the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center (https://sites.uab.edu/nscisc/), where they will be accessible under a controlled-access model. Qualified researchers may request access by submitting a brief proposal outlining the intended use of the data; requests will be reviewed by the study team to ensure scientific validity and compliance with participant privacy protections. Data will remain available for the duration required by institutional policy.
