Why will a c7 spinal cord injury cause hypoventalation
Which is worse a c6 or c7 spinal cord injury?
The spinal cord does not need to be severed in order to be classified as a spinal cord injury. The C stands for cervical which means it is in the neck. The 6 and 7 are the vertebrae down from the skull. The largest vertebrae on your neck is number 7, so that injury is between that one and the one directly above it. I received a spinal cord injury at 6 and 7 in 1999 in a Ford Explorer rollover accident. My 6 and 7 slid out of place about 70%. Because of the damage done to the nerve cells they died. That is what caused the spinal cord injury.
What structure passes through c1-c7?
The cervical vertebrae (C1-C7) are part of the spinal column and the spinal cord passes through them.
At what level of spinal cord injury is full shoulder movement wrist extension and dorsflextion and some finger movement maintained?
This would most likely be at T1, possibly C7.
What structure passes through this opening in c1-c7?
Vertebral artery passes through transverse formamina of C1-C6!
What do MRI results mean when they say level C6-C7 demonstrates a small central disc protrusion associated with?
That means there is a bulging disc that is impinging on the central canal (spinal cord) between the vertebral bodies at the C6-C7 levels, which may or may not be symptomatic.
Will your back get better from a c7 injury?
Yes.
How can you transfer music from PC to nokia c7?
using a cable
What does it mean on MRI Heterogeneous increased T2 signal intensity seen at the C7 level of the cervical cord is likely artifactual as corresponding signal abnormality not confirmed on sagittal T2?
It means that initially the radiologist saw a lesion at the spinal cord (at the last cervical vertebrae - C7), but when he looked to confirm it from another plane, it was not there so he concluded that it was an artifact. MRI artifacts are shadows, lesions, lines that appear on images but they don't have anatomical correspondence. Most of the are cause by blood flow, spinal fluid flow, patient movement, hardware problems, and many other reasons.
What are some accidents that could put someone in a wheel chair?
There are many accidents to put you in a wheelchair permanently. The most common injury is from automobile crashes and the spinal cord is injured/broken. Another source of injury is from diving into shallow water. Others fall from ladders or trees. Another common cause is being shot in the back. Once the spinal cord is injured, it is usually permanent. Recovery time from this type period is about two years. After this time, the person adjusts their lives with what is left. From the skull down you have Cervical (C1-C7). Injury here, such as Christopher Reeves, result in paralysis of all four extremeties; quadriplegia/tetraplegia, referred to as Quads. The lower level injuries T1 through Lumbar result in paralysis from the chest down.
What is C3-c7 neural foraminal narrowing?
Narrowing of the neural formina at the C7- 1 was a narrowing of the spinal canal where the nerve roots exit. This can occur with or without disc protrusion.
How can you transfer music from Nokia c7?
yes, through bluetooth and usb
