In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of various hemodynamic management strategies on functional neurologic outcomes and non-neurologic adverse events in the first 5 days following acute spinal cord injury (SCI). The hemodynamic management strategies assessed include targeting a mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) goal of 85-90 mmHg, targeting a spinal cord perfusion pressure (SCPP) goal of โ‰ฅ65 mmHg, or targeting normal hemodynamics, which is a MAP goal of โ‰ฅ65 mmHg.
