Motor score ASIAupper extremity is a leading predictor in all periods after SCI, while completeness of spinal cord injury (AIS) more accurately predicts pronounced functional limitations, and ML and FT predict moderate functional limitations. The FT, a neurological level of C6 and higher, a motor score ASIA upper extremity of more than 22 points are criteria for achieving moderate functional independence.
