Abstract

Background: spinal cord injury is a common traumatic disease. More than 90% of spinal cord injuries are caused by trauma, such as traffic accidents, violence, physical confrontation, sports, etc. Although spinal cord injury is more common and closely related to our life, it is a difficult project to investigate the epidemiological factors of spinal cord injury. In China, there is a lack of national epidemiological analysis of spinal cord injury, and the epidemiological study of spinal cord injury in different cities in China shows different characteristics. Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics of spinal cord injury and discuss the corresponding treatment. Method: Based on various domestic and foreign literatures on spinal cord injury treatment and rehabilitation, a retrospective analysis was conducted on 137 patients with spinal cord injury admitted to Dalian Port Hospital from 2017 to 2019. Results: The average age of spinal cord injury was 53.92 years. The ratio of male to female patients was 2.83:1; The number of male patients aged 60-69 (30.30%) and female patients aged over 70 (28.57%) was the largest. The injury site of male spinal cord was the most in the neck (54.6%), female the most in the waist (40.6%), followed by the neck (34.4%). In choice of surgical treatment of patients with cervical spine injury patients most (52%), and anterior surgery (43.1%), followed by posterior (35.4%), and thoracic spinal cord injury without anterior surgery patients, most patients (83.3%), posterior surgery patients with lumbar segment damage up to use the posterior surgery (83.3%), a few patients with anterior surgery (6.7%).
