“…As observed on a global scale, in this study, motor vehicle accidents represented the most important cause of SCI, followed by falls. A similar profile was noted by Vasconcelos and Riberto 20 and Morais et al 21 in other Brazilian studies, while Fernandes et al, 22 Frison et al 23 and lee et al 19 reported falls as the primary cause. Studies also vary with regards to the type of vehicle the victim was using at the time of the accident, [20][21][22] possibly as a result of environmental variations and/or variations in the local fleet of vehicles.…”

“…16 The predominant level of injury, however, is widely variable among studies. [21][22][23] A surgical approach was adopted in more than half of the victims in this study after the detection of instability of the vertebral segment, and ranged from simple stabilization with steel wire, to decompression and vertebral fixation techniques with screws and plates, as well as the use of implants for vertebral bodies. In 35.6% of cases the approach was conservative, using a neck brace, Jewett brace, Putti brace or plaster case immobilization, bed rest, analgesia and subsequent outpatient follow-up.…”

Objective:Traumatic spinal cord injury is one of the leading causes of disability worldwide, mainly related to automobile accidents. It was decided to establish a clinical-epidemiological profile of spinal cord injury (SCI) in Palmas, Brazil.Method:Prospective study at the Public General Hospital of Palmas (HGPP), including all patients admitted in this hospital from January 2011 to February 2012.Results:They refer to 59 patients, of whom 81.4% were men and 47.4% of the victims had up to 40 years. The main mechanism of injury was motor vehicle accidents involving motorcycles. Clinically, the vertebral segment C4-C7 was the most damaged, and most patients were admitted with spinal injury and no neurological deficit (Frankel E).Conclusions:Primary involvement of young men in working age, trauma mainly due to car accidents that are usually associated with the use of alcoholic beverages. Patients admitted with more severe neurological deficits have evolved to milder impairments after conservative or surgical treatment.

“…In the United States, for example, costs associated with TSCI exceed the range of 10 billion dollars annually (Krueger et al, 2013). In Brazil, public spending on this population is approximately 9 billion realis/year, nearly one-third of all investment in public health in the country (Frison et al, 2013).…”

Introduction: Trauma is an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, constituting a growing problem that is affecting young people who are in good health and are economically active. Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) is often a result of trauma, and it can be minimized by the actions of neuroprotective drugs. Evidence shows that methylprednisolone (MP) is a strong anti-inflammatory component, fighting lipid oxidation and thereby reducing the degeneration of the nervous Sciatic nerve-condicioned medium with the addition of methylprednisolone promotes morphological plasticity in cultured spinal cord neurons

“…Traumatismos Raquimedulares (TRM) são lesões que afetam um ou mais componentes da coluna vertebral, dentre eles a estrutura óssea e a medula. Portanto, aqui o termo "TRM" irá se referir a lesões que afetaram o canal medular, sendo utilizado como termo análogo a lesões medulares traumáticas (Frison, Teixeira, Oliveira, Resende, & Netto, 2013).…”

Uma lesão medular traumática pode resultar em perdas importantes de diversas funções do organismo, caracterizando assim uma deficiência adquirida. Nesta pesquisa, buscou-se compreender as vivências de pacientes hospitalizados, recém-diagnosticados com um trauma raquimedular, desvelando os significados atribuídos a este acometimento e a consequente deficiência adquirida. Trata-se de uma investigação qualitativa, de caráter exploratório, descritivo, com ênfase nas singularidades dos casos. Participaram dois pacientes do sexo masculino, com idade de 35 e 40 anos, internados em um hospital público, referência em traumas, localizado na região norte do Brasil. Os resultados revelaram perdas significativas como a perda da autonomia e temores relacionados à discriminação e o abandono. Identificou-se que a deficiência adquirida na fase adulta explicita o desafio de ressignificar diferentes aspectos do ser e do viver, o que sinaliza a importância do desenvolvimento de pesquisas acerca da assistência integral a estes pacientes desde o momento do diagnóstico, favorecendo a vivência das perdas sofridas e adaptação à nova condição de vida.
