Abstract

The major purpose of this investigation was to compare the anaerobic threshold (AT) and maximal cardiopulmonary responses to arm exercise between persons with paraplegia and the able-bodied. The locomotive stress on the heart in paraplegic subjects was also examined. Thirty-nine paraplegic subjects and 32 able-bodied subjects completed a continuous, progressive, resisted arm cranking exercise test. The results indicate that both submaximal and maximal cardiopulmonary functions in high-lesion paraplegics were less than that of the able-bodied. Furthermore, the intensity of wheelchair-propelling at comfortable speed is not enough for improving the cardipulmonary functions. Verf.-Referat (gekuerzt)
