In this article, we have presented a new motor classification of patients with spinal cord injuries. This system of classification provides statistically discrete subdivisions. The patients in each of the subdivisions of the classification can be mathematically summarized with numerical indices which then may be accurately analyzed statistically. This allows the clinical researcher in spinal cord injuries to evaluate current treatments and assess the potential of new treatments and assess the potential of new treatment regimes. In addition, tables of MIi and recovery rates have been presented to aid in the correct classification of new patients and in the prediction of their present chances of motor recovery. Last, we have introduced a standardized motor examination, based on past experience, that will aid in the direct comparison of future results for any spinal cord treatment regimes.
在本文中，我们提出了一种脊髓损伤患者的新运动分类方法。这种分类系统提供了统计学上离散的细分。分类中每个细分的患者可以用数值指标进行数学总结，然后可以进行准确的统计分析。这使得脊髓损伤临床研究人员能够评估当前治疗方法，评估新治疗方法的潜力以及新治疗方案的潜力。此外，还给出了运动指数（MIi）和恢复率表，以帮助正确分类新患者并预测他们目前的运动恢复机会。最后，我们根据过去的经验引入了一种标准化运动检查，这将有助于直接比较任何脊髓治疗方案的未来结果。
