Abstract

Abstract: Autonomic dysreflexia (AD) is an emergency commonly happened in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) above T₆and especially in chronic SCI patients. AD is usually triggered by stimuli below the injury level. Sudden elevated blood pressure is the main clinical symptom and cardiovascular and/or cerebral complication even death if effective treatments are not provided. Mechanisms contributed to AD possibly are dysfunction of supra spinal control, plastic changes of neurons and receptors. Preventive measures and managements such as removal of risk factor, adjustment of body position, and pharmacological treatment are now in use.

Key words: spinal cord injury, autonomic dysreflexia, clinical characteristics, mechanism, treatment, review
