A spinal cord injury (SCI) refers to any injury tothe spinal cord that is caused by trauma instead ofdisease
The American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) iswidely used to document sensory and motorimpairments following SCI
It is based on neurological responses, touch andpinprick sensations tested in each dermatome

To document sensory and motor impairmentsfollowing SCI.
To categorise the patients and give appropriatecare.
To assess nursing role in using ASIA score in SCI

Complete SCI
No motor or sensory function is preserved
Nursing Implication:◦ To prognosticate the patient
◦ Appropriate care should be provided to reduce high risk of bed sore
![Page 9: Computerised Asia scoring for SCI- Nursing role](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042518/55a7277f1a28ab835e8b4624/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Incomplete SCI
Sensation : Present
Motor function: Absent
Nursing Implication:◦ As sensation is low care should be provided to
prevent bed sore

Incomplete SCI
Sensation: Present (complete)
Motor: Present but grade 3 or less.
Nursing Implication:◦ Nurse motivates patient and their relatives
![Page 11: Computerised Asia scoring for SCI- Nursing role](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042518/55a7277f1a28ab835e8b4624/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Incomplete SCI
Sensory: Present (complete) Motor: Present but have a grade more than3.
Nursing Implication:◦ Motivate the patient for physiotherapy and
rehabilitation.

Incomplete SCI
Motor and sensory functions are normal
It implies the presence of a spinal cord injury but without detectable neurological deficits.

Manual system of calculating score is:◦ Cumbersome
◦ Time consuming
Computerized system was developed:◦ For easy assessment and entry of motor and
sensory powers for automatic calculation of ASIAScore
Need of this system

Nurses can play a vital role in accurate assessment of ASIA score using computerized software.
This will help in research and follow up of SCI patients.
Document sensory and motor impairments following SCI.
Helps to prognosticate the patient.
Categories the patients and give appropriate care.
