Even though autonomic dysreflexia prevalence is
not very high in patients with spinal cord injury,
it is stated that symptoms of autonomic
dysreflexia are observed in about % 50-70 of
patients with injuries in T6 and above.
Nevertheless, patient records indicate a much
lower ratio (Bycraft, Shergill, Choong et.al. ,
2005). Lindan et.al. (1980) have carried out a
study in which they have observed the
development of autonomic dysreflexia in 48 % of
the 213 patients who were accepted to spinal cord
trauma center with complete spinal cord injury in
T6 or above. Autonomic dysreflexis is observed
more frequently in tetraplegic patients in
comparison with paraplegic patients and in
patients with complete spinarl cord injury in
comparison with patients with incomplete spinal
cord injury (Helkowski, Ditunno ve Boninger,
2003; American Spinal Cord Injury Association,
2000). Even though autonomic dysreflexia is
observed more in people with spinal cord injury,
it can be observed more frequently in people who
have undergone spinal surgery above T6 or those
