First, as a result of their younger age at injury and longer lifespan, individuals with pediatric-onset SCI are particularly susceptible to long-term complications related to a sedentary lifestyle, such as cardiovascular disease, and overuse syndromes, such as upper extremity pain. Second, they experience complications, such as scoliosis and hip dysplasia, which may affect them both during childhood and as adults.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePersons with pediatric-onset SCI also have unique developmental needs. They experience the typical ongoing challenges of each developmental stage (e.g., childhood, adolescence) as well as changes owing to their SCI. Finally, individuals with pediatric-onset SCI face health system discontinuities, such as the transition from pediatric medical care to adult care and the transition from parent-controlled health care to self-management. This book is intended for clinicians of all disciplines who may only occasionally care for youth with SCI to those who specialize in SCI as well as clinical and basic researchers in the SCI field. Topics covered include new developments in pediatric SCI research, current standards for optimal care, areas lacking scientific evidence, and recommendations for clinical practice and future research.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 1: Overview\u003c\/b\u003e (Section Editor: \u003ci\u003eZebracki\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLife with a SCI: A personal reflection\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEpidemiology\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLife care planning\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAssessment of SCI\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 2: Early Management of the SCI\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eBetz\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePathophysiology of Pediatric SCI\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcute Management\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePrinciples of Treatment of Spine Stability in Children with SCI\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 3:Unique Issues in Pediatric SCI\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eVogel\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNon-Traumatic SCI\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHigh Cervical Injuries\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDual Diagnoses: TBI\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 4: Medical Management\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eVogel\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNeurogenic Bladder and Bowel: Assessment, Management and Outcomes\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSpasticity\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAutonomic Dysfunction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMedical Complications and Management\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSkin Integrity\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMetabolic Complications and Nutrition\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePain: Overview, Assessment and Treatment\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 5: Neuro-musculoskeletal management\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eBetz\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOrthopaedic complications\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNeuromuscular Scoliosis: Overview, Management and Outcome\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUpper Extremity Function\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 6: Physical Rehabilitation\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eMulcahey\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRehabilitation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMobility for Children with SCI\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 7: Psychosocial\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eZebracki\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEducation and Vocation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEmotional Impact and Functioning\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLong-Term Outcomes\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRecreation and Leisure Time\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 8: Research Priorities and Future Directions\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eMulcahey\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBiological interventions\/ clinical trials\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNeurological Recovery and Restorative Rehabilitation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAdvances in imaging\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Clinical \u0026amp; internal medicine [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Clinical \u0026amp; internal medicine\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Clinical%20\u0026amp;%20internal%20medicine%20%5BMJ%5D%22\"\u003eMJ\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Mac Keith Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52584722432280,"sku":"9781909962347","price":103.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781909962347.jpg?v=1787961822","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/spinal-cord-injury-in-the-child-and-young-adult-hardback-9781909962347","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
