Abstract:
The management of patients with traumatic paraplegia and tetraplegia has improved markedly in recent years. Survival now approaches the normal life expectancy, due to modern intensive care and understanding of potential complications of the spinal paralysis. Rehabilitation techniques lead to excellent physical and psychological adjustment, and community-based follow up with cooperation from the specialized spinal units has ensured continued good care after discharge.
