Complex Spine Cases



     


It is estimated that the annual incidence of spinal cord injury (SCI), not including those who die at the scene of the accident, is approximately 40 cases per million population in the U. S. or approximately 11,000 new cases each year. http://www.spinalcord.uab.edu/show.asp?durki=21446

When a person suffers from a SCI, the communication between the brain and other parts of the body are disrupted, and the communication to and from the brain no longer flow past the damaged area. The extent of the communication breakdown is dependent on both the severity and location of the injury. Damage to the spinal cord can cause changes in movement, feeling, bladder control, or other bodily functions.

More than 200,000 individuals in the United States today have SCI. Every year, approximately 10,000 more sustain SCI from auto, sports and work accidents, falls, or during military service.
