Pediatric spinal cord injury remains a relatively rare condition relative to its prevalence in the adult population. However, up to 5% of spinal cord injuries occur in children. In addition, age-related biomechanical and behavioral distinctions often make the detection and treatment of spine injuries in children much more challenging than in adults (1).

A spinal cord injury is a devastating, life-changing neurologic event that challenges patients, families, and caregivers. A myriad of neurologic and medical sequelae occur subsequent to the original insult. This article discusses epidemiology, primary and secondary injuries, acute therapy, and neuroprotective agents as well as the exciting areas of ...

Abstract In the UK, the annual incidence of acute spinal cord injury (SCI) is 19 new cases per million population, contributing to an estimated 50,000 people who are currently living with SCI. Trauma is the most common cause of SCI, predominantly from falls and road traffic accidents.

Traumatic spinal cord injury currently affects approximately 285,000 persons in the United States and carries with it significant morbidity and cost. Early management focuses on adequate ventilation and hemodynamic resuscitation of the patient and limiting motion of the spine to prevent a second injury.

Some spinal cord injuries occur after the patient arrives under medical care; if proper measures are taken, these should be preventable. Many cord injuries are incomplete and with proper treatment have a remarkable capacity for recovery. Centralized rehabilitation programs for patients with spinal injury can guide the victim to the highest functional ...

Abstract With an annual incidence of 13 per million, around 40,000 people in the UK live with spinal cord injury (SCI). The extent of morbidity and mortality and thus quality of life, is highly dependent on meticulous management from the first point of contact with medical services. Treatment is focussed on reducing the risk of further cord injury and

Potential spinal cord injury must be recognized at the scene of injury, and the patient moved in such a manner that the spine remains immobilized, if the possibility of converting a simple fracture into a permanent para- or quadriplegia is to be avoided. Traction and immobilization must be constant; and once the diagnosis is made, the patient should be
