Summary

This study planned to test whether training on a rowing machine that uses electrical stimulation to move the legs could improve fitness in adults with traumatic paraplegia. Participants would have trained for 6 months, but the trial was withdrawn before anyone enrolled, so no results are available.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Rower assisted by electrostimulation (FES-ROW)
What this could lead to
If it had worked, this could point toward a way to improve heart and lung fitness in people with spinal cord injuries using a special rowing machine.
What could go wrong
The trial was withdrawn before any participants enrolled, so we have no data on whether the approach is safe or effective. It remains an untested idea.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Inclusion Criteria: * Paraplegia with traumatic origin * Spinal cord injury AIS (ASIA Impairment Scale) score A and B at least 12 months old * Patient having given written consent * Patient with social security scheme * Ability to obtain a leg extension with a 30-minute electrostimulation program Exclusion Criteria: * Protected adults (person in guardianship, curators or legal protection) * Presence of contraindication criteria to carrying out a stress test or sustained physical activity decided by the doctor following the person with spinal cord injury. * Drug treatment with cardiovascular or antidepressant effect * Pressure sore * Other associated neurological pathologies (stroke, peripheral neuropathy, myopathy, head trauma, ...) * Affection of the shoulders of any etiology that could compromise the ability to use the rower. * Spasticity of the lower limbs: Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) greater than or equal to 2/4 (specifically quadriceps / Hamstrings) * Participation in another study
