Investigating the Effect of Axial Compression and Distraction on Cervical Facet Mechanics During Supraphysiologic Anterior Shear
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Bilateral cervical facet dislocation (BFD) with facet fracture (Fx) often causes tetraplegia but is rarely recreated experimentally, possibly due to a lack of muscle replication. Intervertebral axial compression (due to ...
Cerebrospinal Fluid Pressures Resulting From Experimental Traumatic Spinal Cord Injuries in a Pig Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Despite considerable effort over the last four decades, research has failed to translate into consistently effective treatment options for spinal cord injury (SCI). This is partly attributed to differences between the ...
