Abstract

Objectives: Postconcussion syndrome (PCS) results from an injury to the head, leading to loss of consciousness. It includes symptoms like fatigue, headache, dizziness, and difficult concentration. PCS is frequently seen among athletes, and its treatment is still controversial. This systematic review aims to study the impact of manual therapies on recovery from postconcussion syndrome. Methods: A systematic search was performed using three databases (PubMed, Google Scholar, and Research Gate) from 2011 to 2021. GRADE approach (grading of recommendations assessment, development, and evaluation) was utilized to evaluate and appraise the quality of studies deemed eligible for this study. Results: A total of 5489 articles were identified. After undergoing the process of screening and review, only 7 articles were used in the systematic review. Data were extracted from these 7 articles (GRADE rating very low to low). Discussion: Manual therapy is an intervention for treating postconcussion symptoms. More studies especially controlled trials with randomization with greater sample sizes, are required to confirm the existing findings.

手工疗法对脑震荡后症状恢复参数的影响:系统综述

目的:脑震荡后综合征(PCS)是由头部受伤导致意识丧失引起的。它包括疲劳、头痛、头晕和难以集中注意力等症状。PCS常见于运动员，其治疗方法仍有争议。本系统综述旨在研究手工疗法对脑震荡后综合征康复的影响。方法:系统检索2011 - 2021年PubMed、Google Scholar和Research Gate三个数据库。GRADE方法(推荐评估、发展和评价的分级)用于评估和评价被认为符合本研究的研究的质量。结果:共鉴定出5489篇文献。经过筛选和审查，只有7篇文章被纳入系统评价。数据从这7篇文章中提取(GRADE评分从极低到低)。讨论:手工疗法是治疗脑震荡后症状的一种干预手段。需要更多的研究，特别是更大样本量的随机对照试验，来证实现有的发现。
