Spine: Spine Trauma - High-risk Patients
Featuring Andrew Dailey, M.D. and others
|
|
The identification of cervical spine injuries can pose prohibitive
problems to the treating physician due to the complexity of injuries,
patient comorbidities and patient volumes. Improved diagnostic accuracy
can be achieved with a risk assessment-based implementation of
screening computed tomography (CT) with a quality-assurance process.
Timely surgical intervention using state-of-the-art instrumentation
techniques, which de-emphasize the need for prolonged recumbence or
external immobilization, may improve patient outcomes and survival
chances.
