Individuals sustaining a spinal cord injury (SCI) frequently suffer from
sensorimotor and autonomic impairment. Damage to the autonomic nervous system
results in cardiovascular, respiratory, bladder, bowel, and sexual dysfunctions,
as well as temperature dysregulation. These complications not only impede quality
of life, but also affect athletic performance of individuals with SCI. This
article summarizes existing evidence on how damage to the spinal cord affects the
autonomic nervous system and impacts the performance in athletes with SCI. Also
discussed are frequently used performance-enhancing strategies, with a special
focus on their legal aspect and implication on the athletes' health.
