Please describe an example of both a primary and secondary spinal cord injury. Our discussion this week pertains to Spinal Cord Injuries. Primary spinal cord injury involves damage to vertebral or neural tissues from compression, traction, or shearing forces. Secondary spinal cord injury is related to ischemia, excitotoxicity, inflammation, edema, oxidative damage, and activation of necrotic and apoptotic cell death; it begins within minutes after injury and continues for weeks. Assignment Instructions: Describe an injury. Some learners will use the same injury, such as a fall off of a horse. Describe how the patient experienced both primary and secondary injuries. Be sure to describe symptoms, implications, and testing that helped clinicians to classify the injury into these categories.

Category: Physiological Adaptation In a postoperative unit, a nurse is caring for a client who has recently undergone a laminectomy to relieve spinal cord compression. The client is alert but has been instructed to minimize movement to prevent post-surgical complications. In addition to monitoring for the usual postoperative signs such as infection or bleeding, which technique should the nurse use to reposition the client to promote comfort and prevent injury safely? A. Logroll the client carefully to maintain spinal alignment, ensuring that the head, back, and legs move as one unit. B. Assist the client to dangle on the side of the bed before standing to promote circulation and reduce the risk of orthostatic hypotension. C. Encourage the client to use an overhead trapeze when self-repositioning to enhance independence and strengthen upper body muscles. D. Instruct the client to perform gentle range-of-motion exercises to the lower extremities to prevent venous stasis and deep vein…
