Clinical guidelines for neurorestorative therapies in spinal cord injury (2021 China version)

Treatment of spinal cord injury (SCI) remains challenging. Considering the rapid developments in neurorestorative therapies for SCI, we have revised and updated the Clinical Therapeutic Guidelines for Neurorestoration in Spinal Cord Injury (2016 Chinese version) of the Chinese Association of Neurorestoratology (Preparatory) and China Committee of International Association of Neurorestoratology. Treatment of SCI is a systematic multimodal process that aims to improve survival and restore neurological function. These guidelines cover real-world comprehensive neurorestorative management of acute, subacute, and chronic SCI and include assessment and diagnosis, pre-hospital first aid, treatment, rehabilitation, and complication management.
