Nursing Clinics of North America, 1990
The successful outcome of providing care to the individual with a spinal cord injury is to enable the patient to live as satisfactory and fulfilling a life as possible. How this is achieved will be different with each individual and family depending on the degree of disability, the family and social environment, and preferred life-styles.

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1975
Spinal injuries with neurologic sequelae are a rare but catastrophic injury. Many of these injuries might be preventable through proper parent and child education, particularly in water sports and vehicles accidents. A significant number of neurologic injuries are incomplete at the time of injury and proper rescue and initial care may make the ...

Injury, 1990
We reviewed 47 children with spinal injuries. Three distinct patterns of injury were observed: subluxations and dislocations without a fracture (type 1), spinal cord injury without radiographic abnormality (type 2), and spinal fractures which may be associated with subluxation or dislocation (type 3).

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

Continuum, 2011
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 ...

Current Opinion in Orthopedics, 2000
Spine injury in children thankfully is still a relatively rare injury. The incidence of pediatric spine injuries has been reported as 2% to 5% of all spine injuries. The biological differences of children make differences in fracture patterns and alter the management necessary for successful treatment.

Central Nervous System Trauma, 1984
Information about the neuropathology of spinal cord injury is derived from the personal study of 341 specimens; 225 of these were traumatic, including 123 with massive injuries. Thirty-one were associated with metastases, 38 were degenerative, and 6 were infectious. Included are 41 normal controls.
