Influence of decompression and stabilization operations on the duration of hemodynamic support in patients with acute complicated injury of the cervical spine

Abstract

Complicated injury of t he cervical spine is accompanied by a violation of blood circulation. This condition requires maintaining adequate perfusion pressure i n order to prevent secondary damage to the spinal cord and multiple organ failure. The authors did not evaluate the effect of the urgency o f spinal decompression on the severity and duration of systemic hypotension in this category of patients previously, as well as the presence of a connection between systemic hypotension and the outcome of the injury. Objective . To determine the effect of early decompression of the spinal cord on the duration and characteristics of adrenomimetics use in the bundle of intensive care mea-sures in the acute period of complicated neurological regression.
