An analysis of predicting factors for surgical outcomes in traumatic cervical spine subluxation operated with cages and plates

Abstract

Background: Accidents, falls, assaults, and sports all contribute to the prevalence of cervical subluxation. Purpose: Predictive indicators and the extent to which patients recover from surgery for severe cervical subluxation are explored. Study design: A look back at the show's history. Patient and methods: Between March 2019 and August 2021, data on 41 patients with cervical subluxation were gathered, including demographics, presentation, imaging results, surgery details, and the ASIA scale. Results: Age, sex, related injuries, degree, and level of subluxation were not significant in a study of 41 individuals with traumatic subluxations. The ASIA scale demonstrated to be an important predictor of surgical success, and improvements in patient measurement on the other two criteria also accounted for the remaining significant p-value. The second aspect is the signal strength of cord edoema, which allows for valuable assessment and prediction of the result; for example, in 15 patients, G2 had a high significant p-value 0.001, indicating an improvement of at least one grade in the ASIA scale. Seventeen patients (with a p-value 0.001) underwent surgery within three days, suggesting that this is a substantial and favourable prognostic factor.
