Summary
This study looked at whether keeping blood pressure higher (85-90 mmHg) for a week after a spinal cord injury helps people recover movement and feeling better than standard care (65-70 mmHg). 94 adults with new spinal cord injuries took part. The goal was to see if a higher blood pressure target could improve arm, leg, and sensory function.
