dc.description.abstract | Spinal cord injury (SCI) is characterised by profound respiratory compromise secondary to the level
of loss of motor, sensory and autonomic control associated with the injury. This review aims to
detail these anatomical and physiological changes after SCI, and outline their impact on respiratory
function. Injury-related impairments in strength substantially alter pulmonary mechanics, which in
turn affect respiratory management and care. Options for treatments must therefore be considered
in light of these limitations. | |
