    Rehabilitation and wheelchair users after spinal cord injury: An overview
    (2022) RIBERTO, M.; WU, L. J. L.; SOUZA, D. R. de
    Spinal cord injury (SCI) is one of the most complex clinical conditions that occur in humans involving physical aspects such as motor, sensory, and autonomic changes with great emotional, economic, and social implications. Considering the numerous consequences of SCI in human functioning, one must keep clear the objectives for the rehabilitation process, which may comprise motor achievements like gait, wheelchair abilities, transfers, selfcare, sphincter management, sexual and reproductive intentions, as well as social participation in education, leisure, and work. Robotic rehabilitation has proved to be highly efficient rehabilitation resources because of the elevated number of repetitions of movements and enhanced engagement through interactive interfaces. Powered exoskeletons have been used for exercises and socialization when available for nontherapeutic purposes. Numerous actions regarding clinical treatment and prevention of complications should be taken as soon as possible to facilitate clinical management and reduce morbidity and mortality. Among the most usual clinical complications of SCI are pressure ulcers, neurogenic bladder and bowel, spasticity, joint deformities, heterotopic ossification, musculoskeletal and neuropathic pain, pneumonia, and suicides. The SCI clinician must be aware of these problems and act toward their prevention and control. © 2022 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
