Abstract
Spinal cord injury patients are prone to cardiovascular dysfunctions and the mortality due to cardiovascular complication increases. Immobilization or decreases activity level caused cardiac complications. The participants were underwent partial body weight supported treadmill training which was supported by percentage of body weight by an overhead harness for 30 minutes, 5 days in a week for 4 weeks. The initial body weight support was set at 23% to 32%.32 Then progression in body weight support was be done by decreasing body weight load at the end. On the first day of intervention baseline assessment by means of using hospital anxiety and depression scale and cardiovascular health assessment (Heart Rate Recovery) was taken. The result shows that the Body weight support treadmill training helps to improves cardiovascular health and reduces anxiety and depression in patient with incomplete spinal cord injury.
Key Words: Spinal cord injury, anxiety, depression, cardiovascular health, Body weight supported treadmill training.
