Impact of Transcutaneous Spinal Stimulation on Blood Pressure and Orthostasis in Spinal Cord Injury (NCT07674511)
Impact of Transcutaneous Spinal Stimulation on Blood Pressure and Orthostasis in Spinal Cord Injury: Short and Long-Term Effects
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The purpose of this study is to learn whether stimulation applied to the spinal cord through the skin (called transcutaneous spinal stimulation) can help control blood pressure in people with a spinal cord injury. The main questions this study attempts to solve: 1. What are the immediate effects of spinal cord transcutaneous stimulation on BP? 2. Does stimulation produce lasting improvements in BP regulation and subsequently, daily function?
