No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if exercise affects the clotting of blood (hemostasis). The effect of exercise on hemostasis will be determined in persons with spinal cord injury, a population reported to have an increased prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD). It is expected that this study will increase our understanding of CVD in persons with SCI, and it will eventually help reduce the occurrence of premature heart disease.
