Medical Treatment after SCI

Methylprednisolone “steroids” for traumatic SCI within 8 hours of injury standard of care vs. experimental

Page 6: Hip flexors (L2)              Knee extensors (L3)

Medical Treatment after SCI

Respiratory/pulmonary Gastrointestinal Nutrition Neurogenic Bowel

Suppositories, mini-enemas, timed bowel program, digital stimulation, strain with increased intra-abdominal pressure

Neurogenic Bladder Intermittant catheterization, indwelling catheter, condom

catheter, vasalva or crede Vascular/DVT Skin

Surgical Management

Spine stabilization Instability: under normal physiologic

loads there is potential for deformity, additional neurologic deficit, or incapacitating pain

Spinal cord decompression

Page 11: Hip flexors (L2)              Knee extensors (L3)

Surgical Management

Tendon transfers Gain function Eliminate need for assistive devices

Page 12: Hip flexors (L2)              Knee extensors (L3)

Surgical Management

Experimental Neural Transplantation (regenerative & reconstructive cellular strategies) Adult stem cells Embryonic stem cells Olfactory mucosal cells

Social Aspects of SCI

Quality of social support has a positive relationship with adjustment & enhancing independent functioning

Page 19: Hip flexors (L2)              Knee extensors (L3)

Psychological counseling for coping and adjustment

Patients can have difficulty maintaining relationships with friends they had before their injury Embarrassed feel their friends’ discomfort let friendships “drift away”

Socially isolated

Page 20: Hip flexors (L2)              Knee extensors (L3)

Psychological counseling for coping and adjustment

Family effects: loss of personal space & time Financial concerns Loss of spontaneity Worry about the present & future Family member role changes/role confusion Patient’s anger - often directed at loved ones

Vocation

Predictors of postinjury employment: Younger age Greater functional capability

(paraplegia > tetraplegia) Able to drive Greater elapsed time since injury Physical intensity of preinjury

occupation/secondary gain considerations Social support Internal locus of control

Page 23: Hip flexors (L2)              Knee extensors (L3)

Vocation Job assessment (VR counselor or OT)

Functional assessment Work environment/physical factors Job tasks Production needs/expectations Adaptive equipment State/community agencies, support groups,

state/county employment programs

Vocation Benefits

Economical Quality of life

Self esteem Self identity Life satisfaction/well being Psychological adjustment to disability
