Brief summary
This Study is a single arm,Phase I/II , single centre trial to check active comparing the safety and efficacy of Bone marrow derived autologous cell(100 million per dose) trial to be conducted for 36 months.
Detailed description
A spinal cord injury (SCI) refers to any injury to the spinal cord that is caused by trauma instead of disease.\[1\] Depending on where the spinal cord and nerve roots are damaged, the symptoms can vary widely, from pain to paralysis to incontinence.\[2\]\[3\] Spinal cord injuries are described at various levels of incomplete, which can vary from having no effect on the patient to a complete injury which means a total loss of function.Injuries at any level can cause:Increased muscle tone (spasticity),Loss of normal bowel and bladder control (may include constipation, incontinence, bladder spasms),Numbness,Sensory changes Pain,Weakness, paralysis. This Study is a single arm,Phase I/II , single centre trial to check active comparing the safety and efficacy of Bone marrow derived autologous cell(100 million per dose) trial to be conducted for 36 months.
Interventions
Intra thecal transplantation of Autologous stem cell \[MNCs\],100millions per dose in 3 divided doses at interval of 10 days.
