Summary

This trial compares two adaptive indoor rowing seats designed for Veterans who have limited trunk stability due to spinal cord injury, stroke, or neurodegenerative conditions. Participants will try both seats during short rowing sessions, and researchers will measure trunk movement, stroke length, power, and usability. The goal is to find a seat that allows full-stroke rowing, opening up a full-body exercise option that may improve physical and social well-being.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Adaptive indoor rowing seats (AIRS V2 and Paddle Sport adaptive seating system)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to better adaptive rowing equipment that helps Veterans with limited trunk stability engage in full-body exercise, improving physical and mental well-being.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage device comparison with only 15 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The on-market comparator seat is discontinued, which may limit relevance.
