This OnDemand webinar updates spine practitioners on the latest advancements in managing incomplete spinal cord injuries. It delves into leveraging machine learning algorithms to personalize patient care, identify predictors of outcomes, and determine the best treatment approaches for various patient demographics, including geriatric and frail patients. Attendees will gain insights into optimizing both surgical and conservative treatment strategies, with a focus on the timing of surgery for central cord syndrome and emerging evidence on its impact on recovery.

Additionally, the webinar covers the evolving best practices for managing incomplete spinal cord injuries, including ideal MAP goals, steroid use, surgical approaches, and the role of duroplasty. Explore the potential of emerging technologies such as brain-computer interfaces and neuromodulation to enhance patient outcomes.

Stay at the forefront of spinal cord injury management by registering for this informative webinar and equipping yourself with the knowledge to provide the best care for your patients.
