Time Course of Respiratory Dysfunction and Motor Paralysis for 12 Weeks in Cervical Spinal Cord Injury without Bone Injury
2019
Introduction
Cervical spinal cord injury without bone injury (SCIWOBI) is a common cervical injury in the elderly population and is most likely to occur at the C3/C4 level. Respiratory dysfunction (RD) related to the damage of the spinal respiratory center, which is close to the C4 segment, is one of the greatest obstacles in improving the activities of daily living of patients with severe paralysis. We evaluated the time course of RD and motor function in cervical SCIWOBI to identify effective medical strategies.
