Spinal Cord Injury
Spinal Cord Injuries (SCI) occur as a result of traumatic events that damage the spinal cord, leading to impaired physical function, mobility, or sensation. A significant number of SCI patients retain an intact spinal cord, yet suffer enough cellular damage to experience a loss of physical capabilities.
Key points about SCI
SCI results from trauma to the spinal cord.
These injuries often lead to alterations in strength, bodily functions, and movement.
SCI can be categorized at various levels of incompleteness, with “complete” indicating total loss of function.
Recent advancements in medical science have illuminated a promising path for individuals with traumatic spinal cord injuries. Stem cell therapy has emerged as a beacon of hope for those who may never fully recover from these debilitating injuries.
How Stem Cells Facilitate Recovery
Stem cells possess a unique ability to regenerate tissues that have limited natural repair potential. For example, articular cartilage, which is found in joints like elbows and knees, cannot naturally heal and deteriorates over time. However, stem cells, acting as orchestrators of the body’s natural healing processes, have successfully rejuvenated articular tissue within joints. This innovative approach bypasses the need for invasive joint replacement surgeries and significantly reduces recovery times.
Furthermore, stem cells can be harnessed to regenerate damaged tissues responsible for various bone, tendon, and ligament conditions. These transplanted cells naturally migrate to areas of damage within the body, replacing injured cells and facilitating the regeneration of lost or damaged tissue.
Protocol
Intrathecal transplantation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells injected directly into the spinal canal. This minimally invasive procedure, taking approximately 45 minutes, involves minimal downtime. Patients typically return home just two days following their scheduled appointment.
