Materials and methods: 68 years-old female patient, admitted in multiple occasions in our Clinic’s Division for a quadriplegic type of motor dysfunction, sphincter disorders, numbness, tingling, and pricking sensations, sensitivity to touch, dysarthria and severe locomotor and self-grooming dysfunction. The functional incapability was caused by the multitrauma – multiple cranial fractures including the viscerocranium, partial focal seizures, C6 vertebra body and from T11 to L1 spine fractures, pelvic ring breach, and calf bones displacement-with multiple surgeries adjoined to a treated rheumatoid arthritis. At first admittance, the patient was bedridden with retention type neurogenic bladder and urinary catheterization and recently operated sacral bedsore. During the repeated hospitalizations, the patient suffered complications typical for her condition: multiple urinary tract infections, sacral bedsore and superficial venous thrombosis, all of them being successfully approached and treated by a multidisciplinary team. The clinical and functional evaluations were objectified through the assessment scales/scores: AIS, FIM, QoL (Quality of life), Asworth, FAC, and WISCI II3. Results: The patients’ evolution was favorable with improved results in all the assessment scales/scores. She had an increased motor control and muscular strength growth on all levels, now she can perform sitting position without any help, standing and sitting exercises at trellis, achieve the initialization of few steps with support by the kinesio-therapist and perform between the parallel beams around 5 steps. Her dysarthria, mood – initially/organic depression – and related behavior, improved her motivation on continued rehabilitation is now positive. Conclusions: This case represents a suggestive example for the poly-traumatized patients admitted in our Clinics’ Division and the complex approach of each pathology in the wright time for the improvement of the specific neuro-locomotor impairment and the quality of life of our patients.

Material and Methods: A 45 years-old, male, patient, suffered severe traumatic neurological injuries and multiple bone fractures and visceral contusions after a traffic accident (driver). The stabilized patient is admitted in our Clinic’s Division for the following reasons: cognition impairment (minimally conscious state), neuromotor impairment in the form of right hemiplegia, dysphagia, neurogenic bladder and gut and eschars. Results: After a serialized, two-year, multidisciplinary rehabilitation approach, aggravated by many complications, the patient has a favorable outcome, both cognitive – in the present moment he can communicate relatively satisfying by pronouncing words correctly, without motor speech disorders and motor: he can maintain the sitting posture for long periods of time and walk several steps with support from another person. These acquisitions are confirmed by the improvement of the following evaluation scales: AIS, FIM, QoL (motor AIS-scale improved with 4 points, motor FIM-scale with 3 points, QoL-scale doubled). Conclusions: This case represents an exhaustive example of multidisciplinary and therapeutic neurorehabilitation approach, with both clinical and scientific impact.","PeriodicalId":43815,"journal":{"name":"Balneo Research Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2018-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49299365","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
