FES Cycling and cardiovascular fitness following a spinal cord injury?
The effects of a spinal cord injury (SCI) vary depending on the neurological level of the damage and the extent of neural traffic interruption at the site of the lesion. Common primary effects may include paralysis and loss of sensation in the legs, arms, and trunk, as well as disruptions in bladder and bowel function and the regulation of blood pressure, heart rate, and lung function. In this article, we will look at this topic in detail and how FES Cycling can help persons following a spinal cord injury maintain fitness with a particular focus on cardiovascular function.
