📊 Results
Motor scoring (0–5):
0=Total paralysis · 1=Palpable/visible contraction · 2=Active movement, full ROM, gravity eliminated · 3=Active movement, full ROM, against gravity · 4=Against gravity + moderate resistance · 5=Normal (full resistance) · NT=Not testable
0*, 1*, 2*, 3*, 4*, NT* = Non-SCI condition present

5. AIS Grade (manual selection)
ASIA Impairment Scale
In a patient with an apparent AIS B classification, non-key muscle functions more than 3 levels below the motor level on each side should be tested to most accurately classify the injury (differentiate between AIS B and C).
Non-Key Muscles (0–5 scale, same as key muscles)
ROOT — MOVEMENT
C5 — Shoulder flex/ext/abd/add, internal/external rotation
C6 — Elbow supination; Wrist pronation
C7 — Finger flexion (proximal); Thumb flex/ext/abd
C8 — Finger flex (MCP); Thumb opposition/add/abd ⊥
T1 — Finger abduction (index)
L2 — Hip adduction
L3 — Hip external rotation
L4 — Hip extension/abduction/internal rotation; Knee flexion; Ankle inversion/eversion
L5 — Toe MP+IP extension; Hallux+toe DIP/PIP flex/abd
S1 — Hallux adduction
INPUT (Right / Left)
Steps in Classification (ISCSCI 2019)
1. Determine sensory levels R and L — most caudal intact dermatome for LT and PP
2. Determine motor levels R and L — lowest key muscle grade ≥3, with all above graded 5
3. Determine NLI — most cephalad of sensory and motor levels
4. Complete or Incomplete? — Complete if VAC=No AND all S4-5 sensory=0 AND DAP=No
5. Determine AIS Grade (A→E)
6. Determine ZPP — only if complete injury (no VAC and no sacral sensory)

AIS Classification Guide
A
Complete — No sensory or motor function preserved in S4-5
B
Sensory Incomplete — Sensory but not motor function below NLI, includes S4-5
C
Motor Incomplete — Motor function below NLI; >50% key muscles below NLI grade <3
D
Motor Incomplete — Motor function below NLI; ≥50% key muscles below NLI grade ≥3
E
Normal — Sensory and motor function normal; prior deficits noted
