Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of experimental research on spinal cord injury, and in particular to an adjustable spinal cord impact vibration injury device and an injury causing method thereof. Background Art
[0002] At present, most patients with spinal cord injury are caused by natural disasters such as falling from a height, car accidents, and earthquakes. The injury mechanism is that when the human body falls freely to the ground, the impact is transmitted through the muscles, spine, etc., causing concussion damage to the spinal cord tissue. In the case of concussion injury to the spinal cord, the rupture of nerve roots and white matter fibers, demyelination, and microvascular damage are more serious.
[0003] In existing medical experimental research, NYU impactor and IH impactor are the most commonly used biomechanical injury devices for preparing spinal cord contusion models. However, both devices place the experimental animals in a prone position, surgically cut the skin, separate the muscles, expose the spinal canal or spinal cord tissue, and then set different impact intensities and spinal cord tissue compression degrees to establish spinal cord injury models with different degrees of injury. The spinal cord injury model is mainly characterized by tissue bleeding and neuronal cell degeneration and necrosis. Although it can simulate the pathological and physiological reactions after spinal cord contusion to a certain extent, it is quite different from the injury mechanism and pathological changes of spinal cord injury patients admitted to the clinic, which are mainly spinal cord concussion injuries. It cannot well simulate the pathological changes of clinical spinal cord concussion injuries, which are mainly white matter fiber damage, and is not conducive to finding more effective treatment targets and providing more appropriate treatment strategies.
