Abstract

Aims To investigate which urodynamic parameters are associated with renal deterioration over a median of 41 years follow-up after traumatic spinal cord injury. Methods Medical records of patients with a traumatic spinal cord injury sustained 1944-1975 were reviewed from time of injury until 2012. Patients who attended regular renography and/or renal clearance examinations and had minimum one cystometry and pressure-flow study were included. Renal deterioration was diagnosed as split renal function ≤30% in one kidney or relative glomerular filtration rate ≤51% of expected according to age and gender. Detrusor function, presence of detrusor sphincter dyssynergia, maximum detrusor pressure, post-void residual volume, and cystometric bladder capacity were obtained. In patients with detrusor overactivity, a detrusor overactivity/cystometry ratio was calculated using duration of detrusor contraction(s) during filling cystometry divided by total duration of filling cystometry. Results A total of 73 patients were included in the study, and the median follow-up time was 41 years after injury (range 24-56). Sixty-four patients (88%) used reflex triggering or bladder expression as bladder emptying method for the longest period after injury. During follow-up 60% changed to clean intermittent catheterization. The majority of the patients (68%) had neurogenic detrusor overactivity. In 35 patients, a detrusor-overactivity/cystometry ratio could be calculated and a detrusor overactivity/cystometry ratio > 0.33 was significantly associated with renal deterioration ( P < 0.02). No significant association was found between maximum detrusor pressure or other urodynamic parameters and renal deterioration. Conclusions Duration of detrusor overactivity longer than one third of the duration of cystometry is associated with renal deterioration after spinal cord injury. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Prospective quasi-experimental study, pre- and post-design. Assess safety, feasibility, training characteristics and changes in gait function for persons with spinal cord injury (SCI) using the robotic exoskeletons from Ekso Bionics. Nine European rehabilitation centres. Robotic exoskeleton gait training, three times weekly over 8 weeks. Time upright, time walking and steps in the device (training characteristics) were recorded longitudinally. Gait and neurological function were measured by 10 Metre Walk Test (10 MWT), Timed Up and Go (TUG), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Walking Index for Spinal Cord Injury (WISCI) II and Lower Extremity Motor Score (LEMS). Fifty-two participants completed the training protocol. Median age: 35.8 years (IQR 27.5–52.5), men/women: N= 36/16, neurological level of injury: C1-L2 and severity: AIS A–D (American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale). Time since injury (TSI) < 1 year, N= 25; > 1 year, N= 27. No serious adverse events occurred. Three participants dropped out following ankle swelling (overuse injury). Four participants sustained a Category II pressure ulcer at contact points with the device but completed the study and skin normalized. Training characteristics increased significantly for all subgroups. The number of participants with TSI < 1 year and gait function increased from 20 to 56% (P= 0.004) and 10MWT, TUG, BBS and LEMS results improved (P< 0.05). The number of participants with TSI > 1 year and gait function, increased from 41 to 44% and TUG and BBS results improved (P< 0.05). Exoskeleton training was generally safe and feasible in a heterogeneous sample of persons with SCI. Results indicate potential benefits on gait function and balance.
