    AbstractAn analysis of 416 patients treated at the Department of Rehabilitation for the trauma to thoracic spine is presented. Analysed group included 178 patients who underwent trauma being drunk. Sequelae of the trauma, the results of neurological and functional treatment were compared in two groups of patients: admitted to the hospital under the influence of alcohol and sober. An analysis of the data indicates lower degree of the trauma to the spinal cord and markedly better neurological and functional results of therapy in patients being sober during the accident. Mortality rate is also lower in this group comparing to this in the group of patients being drunk during the accident. Statistical analysis of these date suggests high degree of the probability of interdependence of therapeutical results and sobriety of the victims.
