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 ...

Spinal cord injuries predispose patients to numerous complications. The care of such patients requires attention to multiple bodily systems, sensitivity to the effects of interventions on function and lifestyle, and a special vigilance because of the tendency of spinal cord injuries to mask problems.

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1982
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 ...

The incidence of civilian spinal cord injuries in the United States has been estimated at 5,000 per year. 1 That this figure is an estimate instead of a documented fact suggests the lack of organization in the approach to this problem. It is even more difficult to establish the number of living spinal cord injury patients in the country: guesses—and ...

Spinal cord injury represents a great health and economic burden for patients and society, and a major challenge for both the physician and the researcher. Following a lesion, a series of anatomopathological changes (glial scar formation, neuroinflammatory reactions, and cell death) occurs, associated with the poor capability of the adult CNS to ...

Neonatal spinal cord injury (SCI) is well described in the literature, though its diagnosis is often delayed or missed in the neonatal period. We present a neonate who was referred with upper gastrointestinal bleed and a diagnosis of spinal cord injury was subsequently made clinically and confirmed radiologically.

Spinal Cord Decompression in Spinal Cord Injury
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1981There is substantial doubt as to the value of "decompressive" surgery in the management of spinal cord injury. A few relative indications exist for such surgery, but they are only relative. There are a number of absolute contraindications to the procedure, and it should be undertaken only under the most unusual and highly selected circumstances.

Our understanding of the pathophysiological processes that comprise the early secondary phases of spinal cord injury such as spinal cord ischemia, cellular excitotoxicity, ionic dysregulation, and free-radical mediated peroxidation is far greater now than ever before, thanks to substantial laboratory research efforts.

In summary, many questions still need to be answered about spinal cord injury. Research into newer methods of care are still important for the future of these persons. We would all like to see a cure. We must not be satisfied, however, with the status quo of care until a cure is possible. Our goals of care, gadgetry, and research must be geared to meet
