Summary

To compare the outcome of early versus delayed surgical decompression among patients presenting with traumatic spinal cord injury in a tertiary care hospital.

Conditions

  • Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Early Surgical Decompression

it will be defined as the surgical decompression performed within 24 hours of injury. It will be performed among all the patients who presented within 24 hours of injury.

PROCEDURE

Delayed Surgical Decompression

It will be defined as the surgical decompression performed after 24 hours of spinal cord injury. It will be performed among all the patients who needed it due to medical optimization (such as hemodynamically unstable, shock, pulmonary contusions, cerebrovascular destabilization etc.) or those who will present after 24 hours of injury due to logistical delay.
