Average motor score (upper extremity motor score [UEMS]) recovered over the first year (~1 to 48 weeks) after cervical (C4–C7) sensorimotor complete (AIS-A) SCI as a function of the number of motor levels recovered over the same time period (error bars = 95% confidence interval). Although all comparisons of UEMS as a function of the number of recovered motor levels were statistically significant, only the recovery of 2 motor levels had a significant impact on regaining independent activities for self-care as noted by the SCIM (see Figure 4).
