Abstract:
Acute traumatic cervical spinal cord injury (TCSCI) is one of the most common severe injuries, and is often accompanied by complications like respiratory infection due to different degrees of paralysis of respiratory muscles, decreased cough function, increased bronchial secretions and bronchial spasm, which seriously affects the respiratory function recovery and enhances mortality rate. The authors review the respiratory management in patients with TCSCI from mechanical ventilation, tracheotomy, oxygen therapy, aerosolized inhalation, assisted sputum extraction, and respiratory function training, in order to provide a reference for clinical nursing work and improve the treatment effect.
