問題詳情
Until World War II, a serious spinal cord injury (SCI) usually meant certain death. Anyone who survived such injuryrelied on a wheelchair for mobility in a world with few accommodations and faced an ongoing struggle to survive secondarycomplications such as breathing problems, blood clots, kidney failure, and pressure sores. By the middle of the twentiethcentury, new antibiotics and novel approaches to preventing and treating bed sores and urinary tract infections revolutionizedcare after spinal cord injury. This greatly expanded life expectancy and required new strategies to maintain the health of peopleliving with chronic paralysis. New standards of care for treating spinal cord injuries were established: reposition the spine, fixthe bones in place to prevent further damage, and rehabilitate disabilities with exercise.The largest proportion of spinal cord injuries (36.5 percent) occurs during car accidents; more than a quarter is the resultof falls; and the rest are due to acts of violence (primarily gunshot wounds), sporting accidents, and other less common causes.According to reports, the cost of managing the care of spinal cord injury patients is $3 billion each year, but the average age atinjury is 42.6 years, and eighty percent are male.Today, improved emergency care for people with spinal cord injuries, antibiotics to treat infections, and aggressiverehabilitation can minimize damage to the nervous system and restore function to varying degrees. Advances in research aregiving doctors and people living with SCI hope that spinal cord injuries will eventually be repairable. With new surgicaltechniques and developments in spinal nerve regeneration, cell replacement, neuroprotection, and neurorehabilitation, the futurefor spinal cord injury survivors looks brighter than ever.
