Institut de Sante Parasport Connecte Synergies2,000 enrolled

Overview

People with neuromotor disability (i.e. following an inborn or acquired spinal cord, cerebral or peripheral neurological lesion) are at risk of worsening their neuro-orthopaedic disorders during aging, including fracture risk. Nevertheless, at the present time, the natural evolution of their neuro-orthopedic disorders and the long-term functional impact of their medical and surgical treatments is unknown. The aim of this study is to describe neuro-orthopedic disorders during aging of patients with neuromotor disability, their functional repercussions, their comorbidities and the therapeutic strategies used.

This is an ambispective, monocentric, cohort study of subjects with neuromotor disability followed in a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Department. All consecutive eligible inpatient and outpatient subjects treated in the Neuro Orthopaedic Unit (UPOH) of the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Department of our university hospital will be included. Data will be collected from the patients' medical records, in particular data related to their clinical, radiological, biological and physiological examinations.
