Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Nov-2013
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a form of therapy used to treat certain types of chronic pain. It involves an electrical generator that delivers pulses to a targeted spinal cord area.

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Sep-2008
If the spine is unstable following traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI), surgical fusion and bracing may be necessary to obtain vertical stability and prevent re-injury of the spinal cord from repeated movement of the unstable bony elements. It has been sug - Spinal injuries centres (SICs) for acute traumatic spinal cord injury
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Aug-2008
The majority of complications in traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) can occur in the first 24 hours and it has been suggested that spinal injury centres (SICs) may influence the pre-transfer care of people with SCI. The specialist SIC concept has been ado - Spinal manipulation for dysmenorrhoea
