Background:
The incidence of spinal cord injury continues to be increasing day by day throughout
the world but the incidence rate is higher in low income countries. Life expectancy
after SCI is markedly reduced due to secondary complications, severity of injury,
social deprivation, and lack of proper rehabilitation. Most common and life
threatening secondary complications in resource poor settings are pressure sore,
urinary tract infection, contractures, chronic pain, deep vein thrombosis etc.
Objective:
The main objective of the study was to determine current status of person with SCI
who had discharged from hospital 5 years ago.
Method:
This was a cohort retrospective observational study of the spinal cord injury patients
admitted for rehabilitation at Centre for Rehabilitation of Paralysed (CRP) in
Bangladesh in 2011.Sample size was estimated according to following formula with
95% confidence level, 5% margin of error and a total population of 295 patients, from
that sample size was 168. But50 patients were being interviewed from that by using
simple random sampling in the Microsoft Excel Worksheet. Records of all admitted
patients with spinal injuries from January 2011 to December 2011 were followed up
by phone call and home visits were carried out when needed. Researcher used
preforms pretested scale of SCI secondary condition, WHODAS scale, SF-12 scale,
CESDE-R scale and questionnaire about his activities. |
