"The International Standards for Neurological Classification of Spinal Cord Injury"

The International Standards for Neurological Classification of Spinal Cord Injury provide a consistent way for healthcare professionals to assess and describe the severity of spinal cord injuries. They focus on evaluating motor and sensory functions below the injury level, helping to determine how much a person’s movement and feeling are affected. This classification system guides treatment planning, monitors recovery, and facilitates communication among clinicians worldwide, ensuring everyone is speaking the same language when describing spinal cord injuries.
