Effect of swimming on increasing of cardio-respiratory capacity in paraplegics.

A Pachalski, T Mekarski.   

Abstract

The aim of this paper was to study the effect of swimming training on the cardio-respiratory system of paraplegics. The observation of 60 paraplegics (34 males and 26 females) was carried out during the three years experiment. To measure a cardio-respiratory efficiency level we used Skibinski's cardio-respiratory index (SCRI). After three years of the swimming training programme the SCRI value increased four times.
