Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a procedure called "expansile duraplasty" can improve recovery in adults who have experienced an acute traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does expansile duraplasty work to improve recovery in people with acute traumatic SCI? * How safe is the use of expansile duraplasty in people with acute traumatic SCI? Researchers will compare the strength, movement, and overall recovery of participants who receive expansile duraplasty to that of participants who do not receive expansile duraplasty to see if the use of expansile duraplasty leads to better recovery for people with acute traumatic SCI. Participants will be randomly placed in one of two groups: an Experimental group and a Control group. Participants in the Experimental group will receive expansile duraplasty during their standard SCI surgery. Participants in the Control group will not receive expansile duraplasty during their standard SCI surgery. All participants will: * Provide samples of blood and cerebrospinal fluid * Undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans * Undergo an assessment of the ability to move arms/legs and feel touch or pin prick * Answer questionnaires about medical history, pain, health, and independence with activities of daily living
