Abstract
The spinal level of neurologic injury, the type of neurologic deficit, and the duration of injury are all factors that define the degree of respiratory impairment. Usually, functional compromise worsens as the level of injury is higher. Detailed monitoring must be applied in all patients with cervical spine injury and after neurosurgery for early detection of respiratory failure.
