Is corticosteroideffective in spine trauma?

No Definite proof of effectiveness shown in Randomised controlled trials

No, As per recent trial, it is not effective

according to most literature data, they effective if indicated and taken within first 6 hours after trauma

first 6 hrs is effective as it reduces inflammation and edema around the cord 

In the literature You can find easily a lot of warks pro and against corticosteroids in spine trauma.Generaly, the authors discusse about the corticosteroids in the fiurst 6 hours after truma.But I want a litle bit to chnage the question - are bad the corsticosteroids in spine trauma ? and the answer will be clare - a big  NO.
