OBJECTIVE: To investigate the longitudinal changes in physical capacity over 20
years in athletes with spinal cord injury (SCI). DESIGN: Longitudinal study (20-y
follow-up). SETTING: Laboratory setting. PARTICIPANTS: Persons with SCI (N=7).
INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Maximum oxygen consumption
Vo(2)max) measured in 1986-1988 and in 2006. RESULTS: Subjects with SCI
maintained stable Vo(2)max in 2006. Six of the 7 continued various wheelchair
sports activities, while 1 person quit sports activities 1 year after the
baseline study. The latter person showed reduced Vo(2)max by 53%, while 2 persons
who continued strenuous wheelchair sports activities showed increased Vo(2)max by
43% and 45% after 20 years. CONCLUSION: The results indicated that physical
capacity reflected the level of sports activity in subjects with SCI who
maintained sports activities.
