Despite significant improvements in prehospital, critical care and surgical management, traumatic spinal cord injury is still a major cause of disability with devastating physical, social and psychological consequences, leading to significant direct and indirect health care costs. Taking a practical approach, this book addresses all aspects of traumatic spinal cord injury, from the pre-hospital setting to discharge. Furthermore, the book highlights the central role of trauma networks and neurocritical care specialisation.Encouraging a protocol-driven, multidisciplinary approach, the authors provide a methodological description of the diagnostic and therapeutic management of patients with traumatic spinal cord injury throughout the patient's entire course. Neurological injuries and their sequelae assume predominant significance in this type of patient. Patients with traumatic spinal cord injury may suffer from both acute injuries and long-term dysfunctions affecting different types of organs and apparatuses. Bradyarrhythmia, haemodynamic instability, hypothermia, hyperthermia, pain, spasticity and autonomic dysreflexia are just a few examples of the possible debilitating conditions that our patients may suffer from and that, consequently, the clinician must address. Consequently, a multidisciplinary approach is required to provide appropriate clinical management. Paying particular attention to prognosis and the implementation of an early neurorehabilitation programme, the authors examine the challenges of living with spinal cord injury for both patients and families.

Trauma patients are at increased risk for developing venous thromboembolism (VTE), which includes pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis. Despite evidence-based guidelines and concerted efforts to implement optimal prophylaxis strategies, VTE remains a frequent diagnosis in trauma patients. Standard prophylaxis dosing of low-molecular-weight heparin is insufficient in trauma, shifting focus toward alternative dosing strategies to include anti-Xa-guided dosage, weight-based dosing, and anti-platelet agents. Trauma patients who develop VTE require therapeutic anticoagulation, presenting a challenge due to increased risk for bleeding. Post-discharge VTE prophylaxis and treatment guidelines also identify patients at the highest risk for developing complications of VTE.This book provides a thorough yet practical perspective on the prevention and treatment of venous thromboembolism from admission to discharge. It focuses on the importance of a multidisciplinary approach for preventing and treating venous thromboembolism, highlighting the importance of updated guidelines from the WTA, AAST, and Committee on Trauma. Chapters are thematically arranged in five sections highlighting key areas of care, covering background and systems, VTE prophylaxis, treatment, discharge therapy, and special populations.
