Abstract
Despite increasing evidence against the routine administration of MP in patients with SCI and international guidelines that do not recommend its use, this potentially dangerous practice remains common on this continent. The Latin American medical associations need to produce guidelines to standardize practices with acute SCI. Moreover, educational campaigns might reduce practices guided mainly by misperception of legal issues instead of clinical benefit.
