Blood pressure management after traumatic spinal cord injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests a way to manage blood pressure after a traumatic spinal cord injury. It aims to improve blood flow to the injured area and help recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a spinal cord injury caused by a traumatic event, like a fall or car accident.
- Your injury is not from something that went through the spinal cord, like a gunshot or stab wound.
- You do not have a severe brain injury (you were not unconscious for more than 24 hours).
- You did not have a previous spinal cord injury, stroke, or other nerve condition like Parkinson's or cerebral palsy.
- You do not have another injury that needs special blood pressure control, like a damaged aorta or recent stroke.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether a non-invasive spinal stimulation device can help improve low blood pressure and dizziness when standing in people with spinal cord injury. It may be an option for those who have had a spinal cord injury for at least a year and experience blood pressure problems.
This study tests whether specific diet and exercise plans can help prevent blood pressure drops after eating in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). If you have SCI and use a wheelchair, this trial may help you find ways to manage low blood pressure after meals.
This study looks at how blood vessel health is affected in people with long-term spinal cord injury (over 1 year). It tests whether blood vessel function plays a role in heart and circulatory risk.
This study tests whether a device that delivers mild electrical stimulation through the skin can improve low blood pressure after an acute spinal cord injury. It may help reduce episodes of dizziness or faint-feeling caused by blood pressure dropping when you sit up.
This study tests a skin “stimulation” treatment to see if it helps stabilize blood pressure in people with spinal cord injury who get low blood pressure when sitting up. If you often have dizziness, faintness, or low readings after changing positions, this trial may help find safer ways to manage it.
This study looks at how spinal cord injury affects the health of your blood vessels. It compares people with paraplegia to those without an injury to understand the differences.
