Cauda equina syndrome (CES) is a presentation of signs and symptoms that indicate nerve compression involving one or more of the nerve roots in the lumbar spine. The Clinical Nurse Specialist working in a general orthopaedic practice must become familiar with the presentation of CES to appropriately assess the patient and alert the physician. Prompt and accurate care of the patient is critical when cauda equina syndrome is suspected to minimize permanent nerve damage. This article describes the syndrome, its signs and symptoms, basic triage techniques, plan of care, and recovery for the patient with cauda equina syndrome.
