| dc.description.abstract | Single-site retrospective cohort study based on medical records review from 2016–2020. Specialised rehabilitative care is required to integrate traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI) survivors into the community. The World Health Organisation’s (WHO) Rehabilitation 2030 initiative calls to strengthen rehabilitation services, and therefore, information regarding the injury profiles and length of rehabilitation stay (LORS) may assist in planning rehabilitation. | |
