Can controlled breathing help heal spinal cords?
NCT ID NCT03780829
Summary
This early-stage study is testing whether a combination of brief, repeated low-oxygen breathing sessions and hand training can help improve arm and hand function in people with chronic spinal cord injuries. The research involves both laboratory work with rats and a small study with veterans who have had a spinal cord injury for at least one year. The goal is to gather knowledge to develop better rehabilitation methods, not to provide a cure.
