Arm cycloergometry and kinetics of oxygen consumption in paraplegics.
A report is given on studies to determine the best methodological approach in exercise testing of paraplegics. Arm cyclometry was found to be very suitable for wheelchair users with normal upper limbs. Oxygen consumption during exercise was studied and analysed by computer.
