| Complete SCI above _____ have a loss of bowel and bladder function | S2-5 |
| The most common method of emptying the bladder for SCI patients is: | intermittent catheterization |
| The most common method of modified independent/independent emptying the bowel for SCI patients is: | use of a dill (digital) stick for C6-C8 quads; use of a finger for paraplegics |
| Complete upper motor neuron SCI males are capable of having ______ erections | reflexive |
| A lowering of blood pressure upon sitting at the EOB (edge of the bed) is called: | Orthostatic hypotension, the patient should lay down |
| Your C6 patient is having a pounding headache, is sweating and has goose bumps. You take his BP and it is high. You suspect he is experiencing: | Autonomic Dysreflexia (keep them sitting, loosen clothing, check if wearing a catheter for kinks, seek medical attention |
| Biceps, brachialis, brachioradialis are key muscles innervated at: | C5 |
| Extensor carpi radialis longus and brevis are key muscles innervated at: | C6 |

| The SCI patient that uses a mouthstick for function is the: | C1-4 |
| A complete SCI is one that has no ____ or _______ function in the S4-S5 region | motor or sensory |
| ASIA stands for: | American Spinal Injury Association |
| The thumb and index finger is the sensory dermatome for the ____ | C6 quadriplegic/tetraplegic |
| The middle finger is the sensory dermatome for the ______ | C7 quadriplegic/tetraplegic |
| The 4th and 5th digits are the sensory dermatome for the _________ | C8 quadriplegic/tetraplegic |
| Tenodesis action is: | When the wrist is in flexion the fingers are relaxed in extension and when the wrist is in extension the fingers tighten into flexion to attempt to pinch although all hand muscles are absent |
| Finger flexors (flexor digitorum superficialis and flexor digitorum profundus) are key muscles innervated at: | C8 |
| The quadripceps and Hamstrings are innervated at: | L4 and therefore the patient can ambulate with short leg braces and 2-point alternating gait |
