The Use of Orthostatic Device for 90 Minutes Does Not Change Cardiovascular and Biomechanical Parameters of Patients with Spinal Cord Injury

Background. Changes in autonomic function are often caused by spinal cord injuries, which lead to limited orthostatic positioning in these patients. Objective. To investigate the cardiovascular and biomechanical parameters during 90 min of postural elevation equipment usage comparing spinal cord inj...
