https://doi.org/10.33667/2078-5631-2019-4-39(414)-5-9
Abstract
A retrospective cohort descriptive study based on archived patient's charts was performed to research the clinical and neurological features of patients with traumatic spinal cord injuries and analyze predictors of hospital mortality rate. We analyzed 311 cases of acute spinal cord injury for 2012–2016. The relationship of gender and age characteristics, and clinical/neurological features of spinal cord injuries is described. The mortality rate dependence on the level and severity of spinal cord injuries was revealed. Risk factors such as concomitant traumatic brain injury and alcohol consumption before injury were identified.
