First seen May 06, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a non-invasive spinal stimulation device, combined with arm cycling exercise, can help improve blood pressure and heart rate control in people with chronic spinal cord injury (at or above T6). Sixteen adults will receive either real or sham stimulation during exercise for 8 weeks, followed by an additional 8 weeks of real stimulation for all. The goal is to see if this combination can make daily activities and exercise easier and safer.
