Although the world is becoming mostly sedentary, our bodies still require a wide variety of daily movements in order to work well. Many of us struggle to get regular exercise, but even that can fall short of nourishing the body from head to toe. How can we move more—a lot more—when we have sore, stiff parts and overly busy lifestyles?

This podcast features Ida Fox, MD, FACS, professor of surgery at Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MS. In this series, Dr. Fox discussed advancements in upper extremity reconstruction in cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) that have provided the opportunity to improve function and quality of life in people living with SCI. She described current approaches to restoring hand and upper extremity function in people with cervical SCI. Dr. Fox then reviewed the physiology of nerve transfer procedures (early <1 year post-SCI vs. late, even decades post-SCI) and strategies for pre-operative evaluation, testing, and discussion of choice. She also covered preoperative selection and surgical outcomes using validated measures and video content. In addition, challenges, including practice environment, priorities of rehabilitation (spontaneous recovery versus surgical intervention), availability of therapy, and outcomes-based preferences were discussed.
