Prognostic Factors Analysis In Different Ages Of Cervical Hyperextension Injury

Objective： Explore the different age stages of cervicalhyperextension injury severity in patients with spinal cord injury, analysisof the relationship between age and the size of the force when the injuryhurt, MRI examination, the patient’s underlying disease, surgery andprognosis.Methods： A retrospective analysis of patients with cervicalhyperextension injury had clinical data71cases，these patients fromMarch2010to October2012admitted to hospital and underwent surgery.According to World Health Organization division of ages, the patientswere divided into three groups, namely: youth group, the middle-agedgroup and the elderly group. Patients were followed up for3months aftersurgery and12months，we observed that patients with muscle strength,sensory recovery, and to analyze its influencing factors.Results：After surgery, these patients were followed up twice. Wecompared three groups of patients neurological recovery (For the naturaloutcome of spinal cord injury and control of observed indicators beforeand after treatment, we used the American Spinal Injury Associationclassification).We have nerve damage in patients with preoperative grading, and postoperative follow-up results of rating. We use ASIA graderating criteria. By rating results analysis, three groups of patients withneurological recovery after surgery significantly improved compared withbefore surgery; cure rate of middle-aged group to restore the best,followed by the older group, youth group worst.Conclusion：Size injured when violence, whether on a consolidatedbasis of disease, cervical MRI and surgery are the main factors affectingprognosis. Youth group prognosis is worse than the middle-aged groupand the elderly group, its pathogenesis and middle-aged groups aredifferent.
