An autonomic nervous system condition common to patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) is autonomic dysreflexia (AD).1 It is a syndrome of massive imbalanced reflex sympathetic discharge occurring in patients with SCI above the splanchnic sympathetic outflow (T5-T6).2 Chiropractors can play an important ro...

متن کاملCardiac Consequences of Autonomic Dysreflexia in Spinal Cord Injury.

In non-SCI, primary hypertension depresses cardiac contractile reserve via β-adrenergic mechanisms. In this study, we investigated whether AD contributes to the impairment in cardiac contractile function that accompanies SCI. We induced SCI in rodents and stratified th...
