Study Summary

The proposed study is designed to answer a novel research question: Can resistive respiratory muscle training designed to improve respiratory motor control also improve blood pressure regulation impaired by spinal cord injury? Resistive breathing exercise, or respiratory muscle training, has been applied to rehabilitate breathing after spinal cord injury, but has not been evaluated as a method for increasing resting blood pressure and / or improving its regulation under stress as is planned in the proposed project. For the first time, respiratory muscle training intervention will be used as a tool to investigate the physiological relationships between pulmonary and cardiovascular function in individuals with Spinal Cord Injury (SCI). Thus, it will foster a new direction from which to address neglected issues surrounding the cardiovascular complications of spinal cord injury.
