36. Hyperthermia/Hypothermia Because of spinal cord injury, the temperature of the body has an increased tendency to fluctuate according to the temperature of the environment. http://calder.med.miami.edu/pointis/hype.html

OTHER COMPLICATIONS OF SPINAL CORD INJURY: HYPERTHERMIA/HYPOTHERMIA Because of your spinal cord injury, the temperature of your body has an increased tendency to fluctuate according to the temperature of the environment. If you are in a hot room your temperature may increase (hyperthermia); if you are in a cold room, your temperature may decrease (hypothermia). This occurs because of the altered function of the autonomic nervous system. The higher the level of injury, the greater the tendency for fluctuations in your body temperature. Hyperthermia Hyperthermia refers to an elevation in body temperature. For example, it may occur on a hot day if you are out-of-doors, sitting in a hot car, or covered with too many blankets. One or more of the following symptoms may indicate hyperthermia: Skin feels hot and dry and appears flushed. Feeling of weakness Dizziness Visual disturbances Headache Nausea Elevated temperature Pulse is generally rapid and may be irregular or weak. It is important that you attempt to prevent hyperthermia when exposed to an overheated environment.

Questions Comments Submit A Link Submit Story BBS Chat Visit our Sponsors! Who is the National Spinal Cord Injury Association? In order to assist the 7,800 individuals who sustain a SCI each year, and the 400,000 persons living with spinal cord injuries, the National Spinal Cord Injury Association was established in 1948. The NSCIA has many chapters throughout the United States. Some members have physical disabilities while others do not. Chapter members participate in a variety of activities. They work with local and national officials and agencies to develop better programs and services and act as community advocates for improved access, housing, transportation, employment, and leisure time activities for disabled people. Peer support and other services are also provided. These are fundamental aspects of living that 500,000 people with spinal cord injuries or diseases must cope with after they have been rehabilitated and have returned to community life. More and more persons are getting involved in activities of the NSCIA. Through the collective efforts of staff, chapters, board members, and other volunteers, the Association is improving care, producing results in research, and addressing everyday living issues that confront all people who use wheelchairs.

Parkinson's Disease Research Contact: Juanita J. Anders Room B2047 4301 Jones Bridge Road Bethesda, MD 20814 janders@usuhs.mil Lab Focus: Dr. Anders’ current research activities include: 1. A multi-treatment approach to enhance regeneration of the corticospinal tract and restore corticospinal tract function after acute spinal cord injury in adult rats. Combined treatments include olfactory ensheathing cell transplantation and application of a synthetic glucocorticoid steroid, methylprednisolone. 2. The use of photobiomodulation (low power laser irradiation) to promote regeneration of acutely transected corticospinal tract axons. The regeneration of corticospinal tract axons through and beyond the lesion site is determined quantitatively and reinnervation of the target tissue is determined by behavioral testing. 3. A number of research projects are underway on an animal model of type II diabetes, the Fat Sand Rat (Psammomys obesus). These projects include: the characterization of peripheral diabetic neuropathy in this animal model, the use of Optical Coherence Tomography (a novel non-invasive imaging technique), to observe changes that occur in cutaneous nerves and microvessels during the development of diabetes induced peripheral neuropathy, and use of photobiomodulation as a therapy for impaired wound healing in the diabetic animal.

I have enjoyed playing and writing music my whole life. I now write music on my Ensoniq EPS 16 synthesizer keyboard and record on my computer. To record music on my computer I use n-Track studio software. On my site I offer samples of music I have written and recorded in MP3 and Real Audio format. You can download all 12 mp3s on my Downlod music page. I also have links for home recording and music promotion for the indie musician. I suffered a spinal cord injury in 1992 and am a C6 quadriplegic. Come listen to some samples of my music and see that life doesn't end after a spinal cord injury. Links - Music Fasoft Download the n-Track Studio demo and give it a try. There is also a forum where you can ask questions, get feedback and find helpful tips for home recording. HomeRecording.com This site has an incredible amount of information with tutorials, forums, and equipment reviews. Go here if you want to find out about digital or tape recording in your home. PG music is another source for computer recording software. Power Tracks Pro Audio is a great program if you're interested in recording using midi. They offer companion software such as multimedia CDs, tutorial CDs, and software for midi recording. This software offers an incredible number of features for audio and midi recording, but it was much more than I needed. There is also a forum at this site. The Recording Website This site has a large message board and lots of information on different types of recording. Great place to go to find out how to record different instruments, and even has a few examples to listen to.
