Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Venous Thromboembolic Disease (VTE) in SCI patients is very common, its prevalence is 60 to 80% against 10-20% in the general population.

The risk of VTE is very important in the first weeks after spinal cord injury, and then declines with a prevalence of VTE slightly higher than the general population after 12 weeks. However there is no prospective study of incidence of VTE in SCI patients after 3 months. The investigators wish to conduct such a study during the year following spinal cord injury with performing venous Doppler ultrasound of the lower limbs 6, 9 and 12 months of the initial injuryassociated with a standardized clinical assessment, to know the incidence of VTE and determine prognostic factors for VTE.
