P145: Vitamins Level Change in Spinal Cord Injury

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is damage to the spinal cord that leads to sudden loss of motor and autonomic function and sensory under the level of the injury. Studies showed that individuals with SCI has a clear tendency to vitamins level change. The aim of this study was to review the vitamins level in spinal cord injury. Vitamins C level decrease in the injured spinal cord patient. Vitamins C hav...

Spinal cord injury: acute care management.

This article has been subjected to double blind peer review The first two articles in this series described the anatomy and physiology of the vertebral column and spinal cord, and examined the aetiology and pathophysiology of spinal cord injuries (Sheerin 2004, 2005). These provide a basis for understanding the presentation and management of spinal cord injuries. It is difficult to be prescript...

Acute spinal cord injury - the unchanged challenges!
