TL;DR: International Standards for Neurological and Functional Classification of Spinal Cord Injury are published and will be used for clinical practice.
Journal ArticleDOI
International Standards for Neurological and Functional Classification of Spinal Cord Injury. American Spinal Injury Association.
TL;DR: The International Standards Booklet for Neurological and Functional Classification of Spinal Cord Injury (ISBWC) as mentioned in this paper is a standard for the classification of spinal cord injury. But it is not a classification of neurological disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Guidelines for the conduct of clinical trials for spinal cord injury as developed by the ICCP panel: spontaneous recovery after spinal cord injury and statistical power needed for therapeutic clinical trials
James W. Fawcett,Armin Curt,John D. Steeves,William P. Coleman,Mark H. Tuszynski,Daniel P. Lammertse,Perry F. Bartlett,Andrew R. Blight,Volker Dietz,John F. Ditunno,Bruce H. Dobkin,Leif A. Havton,P H Ellaway,Michael G. Fehlings,A Privat,Robert G. Grossman,James D. Guest,Naomi Kleitman,Masaya Nakamura,M. Gaviria,D J Short +20 more
TL;DR: The spontaneous rate of recovery after SCI and resulting consequences for achieving statistically significant results in clinical trials are examined, based on previous data of the magnitude of spontaneous recovery afterSCI, as measured by changes in ASIA motor scores.
Journal ArticleDOI
Guidelines for the conduct of clinical trials for spinal cord injury (SCI) as developed by the ICCP panel: clinical trial outcome measures

TL;DR: An international panel reviewed the methodology for clinical trials of spinal cord injury (SCI), and provided recommendations for the valid conduct of future trials, and focused on outcome measures that are relevant toclinical trials of experimental cell-based and pharmaceutical drug treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neurologic recovery after traumatic spinal cord injury: data from the model spinal cord injury systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented data on neurologic recovery gathered by the Model Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) Systems over a 10-year period. And they found that SCI caused by violence is more likely than SCI from nonviolent etiologies to result in a complete injury.
