Description
Chiettha Prajnadewie and co-authors test belly stimulation and a binder against blood pressure drops after spinal cord injury in 2026, using team framing for a long author list. Sitting up can crash pressure in these patients. Eleven inpatients with clear symptoms took a passive sit up test on four days. Each day used one of four setups: binder, stimulation, both, or none.
Pressure still fell to faint levels in every setup. The combined setup held average upright pressure near flat. All other setups showed clear drops. The binder alone gave the sharpest single dip. The authors say the pair does not cure the problem. It may still steady pressure during posture changes in early care.
