Abstract
The Rick Hansen Spinal Cord Injury Registry (RHSCIR) is a prospective registry of individuals who sustain a spinal cord injury (SCI) from 18 acute and 14 rehabilitation (rehab) Canadian hospitals specializing in SCI care. The data summary provides demographic and clinical details on 1148 people with either a traumatic spinal cord injury (tSCI) or a nontraumatic spinal cord injury (ntSCI) who were treated at a RHSCIR hospital in 2021. Information about the patient demographics, cause and severity of injury, care pathway, length of hospital stay, secondary complications, and social impacts after SCI were included. Data from the summary can provide researchers, healthcare providers, and decision makers with knowledge and evidence that may support strategies to improve SCI care services within their institutions.
