Remote Ischemic Conditioning for PwSCI

Details

The goal of this clinical trial is to collect preliminary data on examining the effects of remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) on cardiometabolic health outcomes for persons with spinal cord injury (SCI). The main aims are: To identify barriers, facilitators and reasons for positive determinants for implementation of RIC in a home setting. To estimate improvements in cardiometabolic health of participants with SCI enrolled in an in-home, high-dose RIC intervention group compared to a low-dose RIC group. The long-term impact will be implementing evidence-based interventions that are achievable and accessible to persons with SCI for improving cardiovascular and metabolic morbidity and mortality outcomes.
