The spinal cord coordinates the body's movement and sensation. Therefore, an injured cord loses the ability to send and receive messages from the brain to the body's systems that control sensory, motor, and autonomic function below the level of injury.

A complete cord injury will present with motor paralysis and sensory loss below the level of the cord thatâs involved. These are the injuries that most often result in spinal or neurogenic shock.
