Mean survival of 110.5 months (9 yr. 2.5 months) for spinal cord-injured persons who died between 1963 to 1976 compared favorable with the figure of 52.8 months (4 yr, 4.8 months) calculated in 1955 by Dietrick and Russi [1]. If suicides were not considered, then mean longevity for the deceased patients would be 126 months (10 yr, 6 months). The leading causes of death were related to the cardiovascular system, respiratory system, suicide and the urinary tract.
1963年至1976年间死亡的脊髓损伤患者的平均生存期为110.5个月(9年2.5个月),与迪特里克和鲁西在1955年计算的52.8个月(4年4.8个月)相比更有利。如果不考虑自杀因素,那么已故患者的平均寿命将为126个月(10年6个月)。主要死因与心血管系统、呼吸系统、自杀和泌尿系统有关。
