Department of Physiotherapy, Middle East University, Airport Road, Amman, 11831, Jordan.
Background: Gait impairments are one of the popular consequences of spinal cord injury (SCI). Acute intermittent hypoxia (AIH) is an innovative treatment that has recently been used to enhance motor function in patients with neurological conditions. This review aims to examine the effects of AIH on gait post-SCI, verify who most likely would benefit from the treatment, and recognize the best treatment protocol, if possible.

This condition increases the risk of spine fractures in patients, even from trivial injuries. The process of slow bone formation within the ligaments of the spine and the fusion of the spinal diarthrosis contribute to the most prominent symptom of progressive stiffness of joints, predominantly affecting the spine and sacroiliac joints.
