@@TheOTMinute Pt 24 years old, fall, has complete loss of sensation in LE, motor 0/5 in LE, no sensation or contraction in sacral area, bilateral loss of pin prick, vibration, touch, at and below level of umbilicus. Determine the following: The Neurological level: Sensory level: ASIA scale:
Small correction, to determine between AIS C vs D you only consider the muscles below the Neurological Level of Impairment (which is the lowest level with normal sensation and at least a 3/5 strength with all 5/5 above bilaterally). For example, if the NLI is at C8 then only 3 of the remaining 6 myotomes must have 3/5 strength in order to be considered AIS-D.

Why does this assessment reference to the sacral segments only? are we only looking at the sacral segments sensory and motor function?
The scale looks at all dermatomes but S4-5 is the lowest level that can be affected therefore the scale is based to that portion of the body
I like the chart !
Awesome thanks for the feedback!
Plz use micro Mike to improve sound quality

This is good to know it’s all in the anoose and I wasn’t being molested by all those doctors. That is the reason why I had to look up this video.
