Quadriplegia
Quadriplegia, also known as Tetraplegia. In 
Quadriplegia, a person has partially or completely lost 
his/her all four limbs( Both legs and arms) and torso. 
It's a kind of paralysis situation, where you lose your 
sensation and control of your limbs. Quadriplegia is 
similar to Quadriparesis, but it's slightly different 
because in Quadriparesis, a person partially loses 
his/her control of your limbs but in Quadriplegia, it's 
partially or completely lost the ability to move their 
limbs. 
Causes of Quadriplegia by Dr. Shailesh Jain
Quadriplegia most often caused by spinal cord injury, Brain 
damage(which causes many other unpredictable effects, such 
as changes in a person’s mood or ability to think.) tumours, 
cervical spine injury.
Most of the spinal cord injuries happen by accidents, such as 
traffic accidents,Auto accidents, Motorcycle accidents, falls, 
Gunshots accidents, Surgical complications, pedestrian 
accidents,Being hit by flying objects, Diving  and sports injuries. 
This injury means  lesion, called damage or abnormal change in 
the tissue of an organism.
There are five different types of spinal cord Injuries,
    Complete spinal cord injury A:  Most severe/serious type of   
spinal cord injury. Such a patient has no sensation or motor 
function below the injury.
    Incomplete spinal cord injury B: Such a patient has some 
sensation but the motor function is limited below the injury.
    Incomplete spinal cord injury C: Such a patient has some 
sensation and muscle control, but the muscles are weak and non-
functional.
    Incomplete spinal cord injury D: Such a patient has muscles 
that are 75% functional.
    Incomplete spinal cord injury E: Minor type of spinal cord 
injury. Such a patient has almost normal sensation and strength.
Also Can be caused by diseases such as,
    Multiple sclerosis: It is a potentially disabling disease of the 
brain and spinal cord, where the immune system attacks the 
protective sheath (myelin) that covers nerve fibers and causes 
communication problems between your brain and the rest of your 
body.
   Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou 
Gehrig disease: It is a progressive nervous system disease that 
affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, causing loss of 
muscle control.
    Transverse myelitis: Transverse myelitis is an irritation of the 
two sides of one segment of the spinal cord. This neurological 
problem regularly harms the insulating material covering nerve 
cell fibers (myelin). Transverse myelitis interferes with the 
messages that the spinal cord nerves send throughout the 
body. This can cause pain, muscle weakness, paralysis, sensory 
issues, or bladder and bowel dysfunction.
   Guillain–Barré syndrome: Guillain-Barre condition is an 
uncommon issue wherein your body's immune system attacks 
your nerves. Weakness and tingling in your limits are typically 
the first side effects. These sensations can immediately spread, 
and eventually paralyze your entire body.
Symptoms of Quadriplegia
The basic symptoms of Quadriplegia:
   Numbness/loss of feeling in the body, particularly in the 
limbs(arms and legs) or burning neuropathic pain;
   Paralysis of the limbs (arms and leg)
   Urinary retention and bowel dysfunction caused by lack of 
muscle control (which means paralysis does not allow for 
coordinated action for ureters, bladder, and associated 
muscles.)
  Breathing Difficulty
   Digestion Difficulty
How can it be Prevented
Wearing a seat belt can decrease the danger of a genuine 
physical issue in a car crash or traffic accidents. Always wear 
helmets while travelling (Motorcycle or Bicycle), Always follow  
appropriate safety measures when at work or exercising.
Prognosis
Prognosis can not be immediately given because all spinal injuries are 
complex, without consultation it will be dangerous to your health. It 
will depend on patients' severity such as disability, mobility and 
sensitivity. Much of the time, the recovery is quicker in the initial a 
half year, and little upgrades may happen a year or two later.
