About this study
This randomized clinical trial will compare three groups of individuals with cervical/thoracic, complete or incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI) that will undergo: (i) early CPAP therapy in the management of moderate-to-severe sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBDs) among adults at 6 weeks after SCI; (ii) delayed CPAP therapy in the management of moderate-to-severe SRBDs among adults at 22 weeks after SCI; and (iii) no treatment as they either have mild or no SRBD.
