Effect of Upper-body Rowing on Cardiometabolic Risk in Spinal Cord Injured Wheelchair Users

Spinal Cord Injuries Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effect of Wheelchair-modified Upper-body Rowing Exercise on Traditional and Novel Cardiometabolic Risk Factors in Spinal Cord Injured Wheelchair Users - Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

This randomized controlled trial will determine the effects of 12-weeks of wheelchair user-modified upper-body rowing on both traditional cardiometabolic risk factors in SCI manual wheelchair users.

Clinical Trial Description

This randomized controlled trial aims to determine the effects of 12-weeks of wheelchair user-modified upper-body rowing on both traditional (insulin resistance, obesity, dyslipidemia (including low HDL-C and elevated TG and blood pressure) and novel (inflammatory status, autonomic nervous system function, vascular structure and function, and cardiorespiratory fitness level) cardiometabolic risk factors in SCI manual wheelchair users. As secondary objectives, this trial will investigate the effects of the exercise intervention on free-living physical activity, shoulder pain, and indices of quality of life. Men and women, aged 18-65 years; chronic SCI (≥1 year since injury); individuals with sufficient sparing of arm function to participate in upper-body rowing; using a manual wheelchair as a primary tool for mobility will be included in the trial. The exercise training will be conducted as wheelchair-modified upper-body ergometer rowing. The training will be performed for up to 30 min, 3 times per week with moderate-to-vigorous intensity, with at least one rest day between sessions. Outcome measurements will be performed immediately before (baseline), after (post) 12 weeks of training, and 6 months after the termination of the intervention period (follow up). This approach allows for assessment of the short term effects of exercise training as well as any residual effects from the training intervention on cardiometabolic risk, shoulder pain, indices of quality of life, and free-living physical activity ;
