Subaxial cervical spine injury classification systems.
• The Subaxial Injury Classification (SLIC) and severity scale is recommended as a classification system for spinal cord injury. This system includes morphological, ligamentous, and neurological information in its scoring, thus communicating a greater amount of information regarding the extent of the patient’s injury. Its overall inter-rater reliability has an intraclass correlation coefficient...
متن کاملSubaxial cervical spine injury classification system: is it most appropriate for classifying cervical injury?
The cervical spine injury represents a potential devastating disease with 6% associated in-hospital mortality (Jain et al., 2015). Neurological deterioration ranging from complete spinal cord injury (SCI) to incomplete SCI or single radiculopathy are potential consequences of the blunt trauma over this region. The subaxial cervical spine accounts the vast majority of cervical injuries, making u...
متن کاملTherapeutic strategy for traumatic instability of subaxial cervical spine.
BACKGROUND A simple, safe and effective therapeutic strategy for traumatic instability of the subaxial cervical spine, as well as its prognostic assessment, is still controversial. METHODS The therapeutic options for 83 patients of traumatic instability of the subaxial cervical spine, whose average age was 35 years, were determined, according to the Allen-Ferguson classification, general heal...
متن کاملCervical Spine Injury Recovery Prediction Scale: a means of predicting neurological recovery in patients with acute subaxial cervical spine injury.
PURPOSE To develop a comprehensive Cervical Spine Injury Recovery Prediction Scale (CSIRPS) to predict outcomes for patients with acute subaxial cervical spine injury (CSI). METHODS 42 men and 18 women (mean age, 41 years) with acute subaxial (C3-C7) CSI and a neurological deficit were evaluated clinically and radiologically after crutch-field skeletal traction. The comprehensive CSIRPS compr...
متن کاملNeglected traumatic dislocation of the subaxial cervical spine.
The optimal method for the management of neglected traumatic bifacetal dislocation of the subaxial cervical spine has not been established. We treated four patients in whom the mean delay between injury and presentation was four months (1 to 5). There were two dislocations at the C5-6 level and one each at C4-5 and C3-4. The mean age of the patients was 48.2 years (27 to 60). Each patient prese...
