Summary

The purpose of this research is to learn about how the body is able to balance changes in blood pressure, how that changes over time, and how these changes impact a participant's risk of developing medical problems.

Conditions

  • Spinal Cord Injuries

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Tests of sympathetic inhibition

Bolus phenylephrine infusion using the Oxford technique will generate the need to inhibit sympathetic activity. Similarly, resting state Mayer waves will be assessed with regard to heart rate and blood pressure responses.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Tests of above level sympathetic activation

Cold pressor test of the hand will be used to cause sympathetic activation. Valsalva's maneuver will assess the ability to buffer against blood pressure fall (phase II).

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Testing of below level sympathetic activation

Cold pressor test of the foot and bladder pressor response will be tested.
