Low oxygen therapy for blood pressure in spinal cord injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether breathing low oxygen (hypoxia) can help stabilize blood pressure in people with spinal cord injuries. It's looking for participants with chronic cervical injuries to see if this therapy improves 24-hour blood pressure control.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 19 and 65 years old.
- You have a chronic spinal cord injury at or above the T1 level (cervical) that occurred at least one year ago.
- You are fluent in English.
- You do not use a ventilator to breathe.
- You do not have other neurological conditions like multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, stroke, or brain injury.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether a non-invasive spinal cord stimulation device can help regulate blood pressure in people with spinal cord injury who have low blood pressure symptoms. It may help you feel less dizzy or faint when you sit or stand up.
This study looks at treatment for sleep apnea (breathing pauses during sleep) in adults with a spinal cord injury. If you qualify, the trial team may help manage sleep-related breathing problems and track how well the treatment works.
This study tests giving high levels of oxygen soon after a spinal cord injury to see if it can help recovery. It is for people who are awake but need a breathing tube and have certain types of spinal cord injury in the neck or upper back.
This early-phase study tests whether a short period of breathing extra oxygen (hyperoxia) soon after lying in one position can improve physical function in people with long-term spinal cord injury. If you qualify, the goal is to see whether this treatment can help your body work better after chronic injury.
This study tests whether mild, short-term low oxygen levels (like at high altitude) can help the spinal cord recover earlier after an injury. It is for people who had a spinal cord injury in the last 2 weeks to 6 months.
This trial tests whether short, controlled sessions of low oxygen (like breathing thin air) can improve leg movement and blood markers in people with spinal cord injuries. It may help with walking or standing.
