Is spinal shock a spinal cord injury?

Spinal shock is a pathophysiological phenomenon of loss of higher-level central control that occurs immediately after a variety of more severe spinal cord injuries and is a pathophysiological phenomenon that occurs immediately below the level of injury. After two to four weeks, this phenomenon can occur with varying degrees of flaccid paralysis below the level of injury, depending on the parenchymal damage to the spinal cord.

Spinal cord injury is a serious complication of spinal cord fracture, because the displacement of the vertebral body or bone fragments protrude into the spinal canal, causing different degrees of damage to the spinal cord or cauda equina nerve, so spinal shock is also a manifestation of spinal cord injury.

This disease is cervical spinal cord injury combined with incomplete high paraplegia, the early stage of Western medicine, the early stage of Western medicine surgery, only restored the diameter of the spinal canal, so as not to damage the nerve again, and completed their mission, but the damaged nerve is still in a state of paralytic shock and can not be recovered. In addition to self-repair, the recovery of nerve function can be carried out by this scheme**, if the damaged nerve is secondary to ischemic degeneration due to too long, there is no hope of recovery. **Scheme 1: Use traditional Chinese medicine to enhance and improve spinal cord blood circulation, so that the damaged nerves can get sufficient blood supply.

2. Combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine to nutrition nerves. 3. Use nerve regeneration drugs to activate the nerves that are paralyzed and in shock after damage, so that the damaged nerves can be regenerated and repaired in order to obtain the best recovery. The exercise prescription should be professionally designed according to the condition.

Suggests,**Improper delay**The affected nerve will be secondary to avascular necrosis, and there is no hope of recovery from the disease,**Time is limited, and there is only one chance. You need help to send a pre- and post-operative magnetic resonance** to guide you.

I don't know how you have ** before, you can try to use traditional Chinese medicine to recuperate. The main prescription of the Four Worms Tongmai specializes in paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury, and uses hand and foot fumigation, as well as acupuncture and a series of decoctions, which are expected to improve part of the function of incomplete injury. You can find out first.

Stem cell transplantation can be accepted during this period, and it is also the only best method for such a disease, the sooner the better, you can see the China Stem Cell Information Network for a detailed introduction to spinal cord injury diseases.

Spinal cord injury is caused by structural and functional impairment of the spinal cord caused by structural and functional impairment of the spinal cord below the level of injury, resulting in spinal cord injury, which is a serious disabling disease. Spinal cord injuries can be divided into two broad categories, traumatic and non-traumatic. Traumatic spinal cord injury is caused by direct or indirect violence, often accompanied by fractures and dislocations of the spine.

Most of the causes of injuries are falls from heights, car accidents, heavy injuries, and sports injuries. Non-traumatic spinal cord injuries are mainly caused by lesions of the spinal cord of the spine, which are considered to be caused by tumors, deformities, and inflammation.

Non-traumatic spinal injuries, which account for about 30% of spinal cord injuries. Spinal cord injury is a disabling and costly disability. In peacetime, we must improve the safety production system, strengthen safety education, use a variety of forms to carry out popular science publicity, and vigorously prevent the occurrence of work-related injuries, traffic accidents, sports injuries, etc., so as to reduce the occurrence of spinal cord injuries.

Spinal cord injury refers to spinal cord injury caused by external direct or indirect factors, and various motor, sensory and sphincter dysfunction, abnormal muscle tone and pathological reflexes occur in the corresponding segments of the injury.

Spinal cord injury is the damage to the spine caused by external causes, and this condition can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine after surgery**.

With the development of the economic level of countries around the world, the incidence of spinal cord injury is increasing year by year. Spinal cord injury is the most serious complication of spinal cord injury, often resulting in severe dysfunction of the limb below the injured segment. Spinal cord injuries not only cause serious physical and psychological harm to the patients themselves, but also cause a huge economic burden to society as a whole.

Due to the socioeconomic losses caused by spinal cord injury, the prevention, prevention, and prevention of spinal cord injury have become a major topic in the medical community today.

Traditional Chinese medicine can be taken to comprehensively regulate spinal cord injury.

Spinal cord injury is caused by structural and functional damage to the spinal cord caused by various causes, resulting in dysfunction of the spinal cord nerves below the level of injury.

Open injury: mostly seen in wartime, mostly accompanied by spinal injury, mainly seen in gunshot bullets, stabs, ** injuries so that the blade, smash, bruise, etc. directly act on the spine, so that it fractures or dislocations, and then the spinal cord is damaged, the injury is consistent with the location of the external force, and the degree of injury is proportional to the size of the external force. Can occur in any part of the spinal cord, most commonly in the thoracic cord.

The main ** of syringomyelia**:

Clause. 1. There are many non-traumatic spinal cord injuries, and the spinal cord can be secondary to spinal cord trauma, and local researchers divide the causes of non-traumatic spinal cord injuries into two categories. Because the disease is often accompanied by other congenital abnormalities, such as spina bifida, hydrocephalus, etc., it is thought that myelomyelopathy is a congenital developmental defect.

Clause. 2. The incidence of non-traumatic spinal cord injury is difficult to calculate, and some experts estimate that it is similar to traumatic spinal cord injury, which causes obstruction of cerebrospinal fluid circulation, and the pulsatile pressure of cerebrospinal fluid constantly impacts the central spinal canal, causing the central spinal canal to continue to expand, and the end constitutes a void.

Clause. 3. It includes the hazards of direct or direct external force to form the layout and function of the spinal cord. Spinal injuries form stable damage, spinal glioma, cystic lesions, vascular deformities, spinal arachnoiditis, myelitis with malacia and other conditions.

Fourth: Cerebrospinal Hydrodynamic Theory Some people think that traumatic spinal cord injury is caused by mechanical force on the spinal cord due to congenital fourth ventricular outlet obstruction, and spinal instability is the main cause of spinal cord injury, especially secondary injury.

Spinal cord** Transient functional suppression occurs after spinal cord injury. There were no obvious organic changes in the general pathology, only a little edema under the microscope, and no damage to nerve cells and nerve fibers. The clinical manifestations are flaccid paralysis immediately below the level of injury after injury, and after a few hours to two days, spinal cord function begins to recover without any neurological sequelae.

The spinal cord is the channel that connects the central nervous system and the peripheral nerves, and is the key link that transmits the commands of the brain to all parts of the human body.

Spinal cord injuries are usually caused by an external blow to the spine, resulting in a fracture of the spine, causing spinal cord damage. It can also be a consequence of diseases such as myelitis, spinal cord tumors, spinal cord vascular lesions, etc.

1. Paralysis: Injuries to the chest and waist lead to paralysis of the lower limbs, and injuries to the neck can lead to quadriplegia.

2. Sensory impairment: paralyzed limbs are usually accompanied by corresponding sensory impairment or even loss.

3. Incontinence: Urinary incontinence is very common, and it is often difficult to urinate. Constipation in the stool, and incontinence can also occur.

4. Pain: Many patients have pain below the injury site.

5. Muscle spasm: Spinal cord injuries above the waist often cause muscle spasms, which affect limb activities and nursing, and sometimes can cause pain.

6. Pressure ulcer (pressure sore): It is the most common complication of spinal cord injury, which can lead to infection and mobility disorders.

7. Psychological disorders: Most patients have varying degrees of psychological disorders, which aggravate their conditions.

8. Others: infection, autonomic dysregulation, heterotopic ossification, dyspnea, etc.

When: The sooner you start **** after spinal cord injury, the better.

Generally, after fracture fixation or 7-10 days after spinal trauma, non-traumatic spinal cord injury (myelitis, etc.) is stable (generally about 10 days), you can enter the **medical department**. As for the early ** at the bedside, it should be done earlier.

Early** can effectively avoid comorbidities, such as pressure ulcers, pneumonia, urinary tract infections, etc., and can also effectively improve the patient's mentality.

Patients with spinal cord injuries have a strong potential for recovery.

Generally, the process of early recovery is completed within a few days to 6 months. After about 2 years, patients can also have a chance of further recovery. The presence of early movement of the distal limb, such as active movement of the toes, often predicts good recovery potential.

It should be noted that spastic exercises have no prognostic value.

People who have sensation in the paralyzed area have a better chance of recovering motor function. In areas that feel normal, the probability of regaining exercise capacity is more than 50%.

Active participation in functional exercises is the most powerful recovery factor. Each patient has to make 100 efforts for the hope of 1. Even if the medical history is very long, as long as you have not undergone ** training, you must have great potential to play, which is the value of ****.

Spinal cord injury is usually caused by an external blow to the spine, resulting in vertebral fractures, which in turn can cause spinal cord damage, and may also be caused by myelitis, spinal cord tumors, spinal cord vascular lesions and other diseases.

Spinal cord injury is generally not a disease, spinal injury is due to a variety of traumatic factors caused by different degrees of spinal cord damage manifestations, the common causes are traffic accidents, fall injuries, sports injuries and wartime doom, bullet injuries caused by injuries are not exactly the same as diseases.

Spinal cord injury is a manifestation of different degrees of spinal cord damage caused by various traumatic factors, usually ** can be traffic accident injuries, fall injuries, fall injuries, smash injuries, sports injuries and wartime gunshot wounds, ** injuries, etc. Patients with spinal cord injuries generally have different types of presentations depending on the severity of the injury. In complete spinal cord injury, especially high spinal cord injury, patients often have varying degrees of paralysis or complete paralysis, respiratory muscle paralysis, urinary dysfunction, long-term secondary infections of the respiratory system and urinary system, as well as bedsores, pressure ulcers and other complications, and patients have a high mortality and disability rate.

Spinal cord injuries usually occur due to several factors:

Trauma: Trauma is one of the most common causes of spinal cord injuries, such as traffic accidents, sports injuries, falls, work accidents, etc.

Diseases: Certain diseases can lead to spinal cord injury, such as myelitis, multiple sclerosis, cervical spondylosis, etc.

Infection: Infection of the spinal cord is also a cause of spinal cord injury, such as polio, syphilis, etc.

Other factors: Other factors such as surgery, burial and ejaculation**, poisoning, etc., may also cause spinal cord injury.

Your niece has developed traumatic spinal shock, and we know the lower parts of the central nervous system of the spinal cord. Located in the spinal canal, it is flattened and cylindrical, with the upper end of the flat occipital foramen magnum and the brain continuous, and the lower end conical. There are two swellings in the neck and waist, which are related to the function of the limbs.

From a cross-sectional view, ** is a butterfly-shaped gray matter surrounded by white matter. Gray matter **have**tubes. The posterior outward protrusion of gray matter is the posterior horn, which is connected to the posterior root of the spinal nerve and contains intermediate neurons; The anterior protruding part is the anterior horn, which contains motor neurons, the fibers of which form the anterior root of the spinal nerve; The lateral horns contain autonomic neurons.

White matter is made up of nerve fibers and can be divided into anterior, lateral, and posterior cords according to their location. It connects the brain and spinal cord and the segments within the spinal cord. The function of the spinal cord is twofold:

The first is conduction function, the nerve impulses from most organs first enter the spinal cord through the posterior root, and then through the ascending conduction tract to the brain, most of the impulses emitted by the brain are transmitted to the spinal cord through the descending conduction tract, and then to most organs of the body through the anterior root. The second is the reflex function, there are many low-level nerve centers in the gray matter of the spinal cord, which can complete some basic reflex activities, such as visceral reflexes such as defecation and urination, and somatic reflexes such as knee thrust reflexes and metatarsal reflexes. Normally, the reflex activity of the spinal cord is carried out under the control of a higher central center.

When the spinal cord is suddenly transcribed and contact with the higher centers is lost, a temporary spinal shock occurs. Spinal cord injuries can interrupt a certain level of physiological function. Thanks to advances in medicine, it is now possible for many patients with spinal cord injuries to recover their physiology.

From the above introduction, it is not difficult to see that it is still possible to demobilize and live independently of traumatic spinal cord shock. The key is that your niece is too young to be too young, and during this period, you need to consult with multidisciplinary experts in the children's hospital to jointly establish a ** plan.

You still have to continue to watch, and if the hospital comes up with a plan, you really can't transfer it to a children's hospital (under 14 years old).
