Summary

This study tests an 8-week online group program called Living Longer and Stronger with SCI, designed to help people with spinal cord injury improve their physical, mental, and social health as they age. Participants set health goals and make weekly action plans with support from study leaders and peers. The trial includes 180 adults in the U.S. who have had a traumatic spinal cord injury for at least 15 years or are over age 45 and use a wheelchair.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Living Longer and Stronger with SCI online program (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a practical, scalable online program to help people with spinal cord injury age more healthily and with better quality of life.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small trial (180 participants) testing a behavioral program, not a drug or device. The benefits may be modest and may not apply to everyone with spinal cord injury.
