Prospective population-based epidemiological study on traumatic spinal cord injury in Ireland.
To provide updated data for the global TSCI repository.
Republic of Ireland.
All cases of TSCI acquired during 2016 were included. ISCoS core dataset was collected on all cases. Descriptive statistics are reported.
Overall crude incidence of TSCI was 12.8 per million (61 cases). Males accounted for 75.4%. Mean age at onset was 52.8 (19.9) years. Falls was the most common aetiology, 60.7% and AIS D was the most common injury level/AIS classification, 32.8%. The majority of patients (59%) were discharged home.
Overall incidence of TSCI has changed very little since 2000 but many aspects of injury such as age and aetiologies are different. This data can now be included in the next TSCI global mapping update.

爱尔兰基于人群的创伤性脊髓损伤前瞻性流行病学研究。
为全球创伤性脊髓损伤（TSCI）数据库提供最新数据。
爱尔兰共和国。
纳入2016年期间发生的所有TSCI病例。收集所有病例的国际脊髓损伤学会（ISCoS）核心数据集，并进行描述性统计。
TSCI的总体粗发病率为每百万人口12.8例（61例）。男性占75.4%。发病的平均年龄为52.8（19.9）岁。跌倒为最常见病因，占60.7%，美国脊髓损伤协会（AIS）D级为最常见的损伤程度/AIS分级，占32.8%。大多数患者（59%）出院回家。
自2000年以来，TSCI的总体发病率变化不大，但损伤的许多方面，如年龄和病因有所不同。该数据现在可纳入下一次TSCI全球图谱更新。
