Background

Non-specific low back pain (nsLBP) is a prevalent and disabling condition, especially among eldercare workers. Although physical exercise is strongly recommended for nsLBP, individual responses vary considerably. Understanding the characteristics that distinguish responders from non-responders could lead to more personalized and effective interventions.

Objectives

To identify predictors of response to physical exercise for nsLBP in eldercare workers.

Design

Secondary analysis of the ReViEEW randomized controlled trial.

Methods

Participants (n = 77) with baseline nsLBP intensity of ≥2 on the 0–10 numerical rating scale were included. The intervention consisted of a 12-week, twice-weekly videoconference-supervised exercise program. Responders were defined as those with ≥2-point reduction in pain post-intervention. Thirty-eight variables across eight multidimensional domains were compared between responders and non-responders using independent samples T or Mann–Whitney U tests. Variables showing between-group differences (p < 0.1) were entered into multiple logistic regression analysis.

Results

Thirty-nine participants (51 %) were classified as responders. Of the 38 variables only three differed between groups: responders had significantly higher nsLBP intensity (p = 0.045), lower anxious symptomatology (p = 0.040), and lower hypnotic/anxiolytic medication use (p = 0.092) compared to non-responders. In the regression model, higher baseline pain intensity independently predicted favorable response (OR = 1.37; 95 % CI: 1.03–1.81), while higher anxiety predicted poorer response (OR = 0.79; 95 %CI: 0.64–0.97).

Conclusions

Higher baseline pain intensity and lower anxiety levels were independent predictors of favorable response to physical exercise for nsLBP in eldercare workers. These findings may inform more targeted clinical decision-making and treatment selection in this population.

背景:非特异性腰痛(nsLBP)是一种常见的致残疾病,尤其是在老年护理人员中。尽管强烈建议进行体育锻炼来治疗非slbp,但个体的反应差异很大。了解反应者和非反应者的区别特征可以导致更个性化和有效的干预措施。目的:确定老年护理人员对非slbp患者体育锻炼反应的预测因素。设计:review随机对照试验的二次分析。方法:纳入0-10数值评定量表中基线nsLBP强度≥2的参与者(n = 77)。干预包括一个为期12周,每周两次的视频会议监督的锻炼计划。应答者定义为干预后疼痛减轻≥2分的患者。使用独立样本T或Mann-Whitney U检验比较响应者和非响应者之间8个多维域的38个变量。显示组间差异的变量(p)结果:39名参与者(51%)被归类为应答者。在38个变量中,组间只有3个不同:与无反应者相比,反应者的nsLBP强度显著较高(p = 0.045),焦虑症状较低(p = 0.040),催眠/抗焦虑药物使用较低(p = 0.092)。在回归模型中,较高的基线疼痛强度独立预测良好的反应(OR = 1.37; 95% CI: 1.03-1.81),而较高的焦虑预测较差的反应(OR = 0.79; 95% CI: 0.64-0.97)。结论:较高的基线疼痛强度和较低的焦虑水平是老年护理人员对非slbp患者体育锻炼反应良好的独立预测因素。这些发现可能为这一人群提供更有针对性的临床决策和治疗选择。试验注册:ClinicalTrials.gov, (NCT05050526)。已注册- 2021年9月20日已注册。

Background

Chronic lateral epicondylitis(LE), is associated with persistent pain and functional impairment in the upper extremity. While peripheral factors such as pain and muscle strength are well recognized, emerging evidence suggests that central mechanisms, including motor imagery ability and body awareness, may also contribute to dysfunction.

Objective

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of pain intensity, motor imagery performance, grip strength, body awareness and pain duration on pain and disability in individuals with chronic LE.

Design

Cross-sectional.

Methods

This cross-sectional study included 98 individuals diagnosed with chronic LE. Function was assessed using the Patient-Rated Tennis Elbow Evaluation(PRTEE). Pain intensity was measured via the Visual Analog Scale(VAS), grip strength via hand dynamometry, motor imagery through left/right hand judgment using the Recognise™ application, and body awareness using the Body Awareness Questionnaire. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to determine predictors of functional status.

Results

The regression model was statistically significant(F = 10.984, p < 0.001), explaining 49.6 % of the variance in function(adjusted R2 = 0.496). Pain during activity(β = 0.449, p < 0.001), pain at rest(β = 0.196, p = 0.049), pain duration(β = 0.207, p = 0.023), grip strength(β = 0.343, p < 0.001), and motor imagery reaction time(β = 0.228, p = 0.016) were significant predictors. Accuracy in motor imagery and body awareness did not significantly predict function.

Conclusion

Function in chronic LE is influenced by both peripheral and central factors. Rehabilitation approaches should therefore integrate strategies addressing both musculoskeletal impairments and altered neuromotor control to improve functional outcomes.

Trial registiration

Prospectively registered on Clinicaltrials.gov on 07/17/2024 (registration number: NCT06459102) (Link: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06459102?term=NCT06459102&rank=1).
背景:慢性外上髁炎(LE)与上肢的持续性疼痛和功能障碍有关。虽然疼痛和肌肉力量等外围因素已得到充分认识,但新出现的证据表明,包括运动想象能力和身体意识在内的中枢机制也可能导致功能障碍。目的:探讨疼痛强度、运动意象表现、握力、身体意识和疼痛持续时间对慢性LE患者疼痛和残疾的影响。设计:横断面。方法:本横断面研究包括98例诊断为慢性LE的个体。使用患者评分网球肘评估(PRTEE)评估功能。通过视觉模拟量表(VAS)测量疼痛强度,通过手部动力测量测量握力,通过使用recognition™应用程序通过左/右手判断来测量运动图像,使用身体意识问卷来测量身体意识。采用多元线性回归分析确定功能状态的预测因子。结果:回归模型具有统计学意义(F = 10.984, p 2 = 0.496)。活动时疼痛(β = 0.449, p)结论:慢性LE的功能受外周和中枢因素的影响。因此,康复方法应整合针对肌肉骨骼损伤和改变的神经运动控制的策略,以改善功能结果。试验注册:于2024年7月17日在Clinicaltrials.gov上前瞻性注册(注册号:NCT06459102)(链接:https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06459102?term=NCT06459102&rank=1)。

Background

The spinal biomechanics of different swim strokes may impact swimming's suitability for chronic low back pain patients, but this remains unexplored.

Objective

Compare spinal range of motion between different swimming strokes in chronic low back pain patients.

Design

Randomised crossover trial.

Method

Chronic low back pain participants completed 100m of freestyle, breaststroke, and backstroke in a random order during one indoor pool session. Inertial measurement units were worn at T2 and S2 spinal landmarks. The primary outcome was inter-sensor range of motion (T2 and S2 sensor difference) for flexion/extension, rotation and lateral flexion. Mixed-effect models compared strokes.

Results

Twenty-two females and 8 males participated (age: 43 ± 15, pain intensity: 2.9 ± 2.2). Flexion/extension range of motion was greatest for breaststroke (22.6 ± 11.3°); increases were small compared to freestyle (Mean difference [MD]: 3.6 [95 % Confidence interval: -2.1 to 9.2]; p = 0.29) and large compared to backstroke (MD: 8.8 [3.2 to 14.5]; p = 0.001). Rotation range of motion was greatest for freestyle (36.7 ± 23.3°); increases were trivial compared to backstroke (MD: 2.6 [-6.5 to 11.6]; p = 0.78) and large compared to breaststroke (MD: 27.1 [18.1 to 36.1]; p < 0.001). Lateral flexion range of motion was greatest for freestyle (32.6 ± 10.6°); increases were moderate to large compared to backstroke (MD: 6.7 [1.2 to 12.2]; p = 0.01) and breaststroke (MD: 25.2 [19.7 to 30.7]; p < 0.001).

Conclusion

Freestyle produced the largest overall spinal range of motion, with the most rotation and lateral flexion. Breaststroke produced the most flexion/extension. Backstroke produced mostly rotation and lateral flexion.

Background

Prior qualitative research has revealed several barriers to physiotherapists delivering psychologically informed physiotherapy (PIP). It is not known which factors are most relevant to PIP delivery.

Objectives

To determine the proportion of physiotherapists in Aotearoa/New Zealand who intend to deliver PIP to persons with non-specific low back pain (LBP), and to determine factors associated with the intention to deliver PIP.

Design

This study used a cross-sectional online vignette case survey design.

Setting

Aotearoa/New Zealand registered physiotherapists who regularly treat LBP were invited to participate.

Methods

Participants (n = 224) outlined their intended assessment and treatment plan for two vignettes with persistent LBP. They then completed the Knowledge and Attitudes of Pain Questionnaire (KNAP), components of the Determinants of Implementation Behaviour Questionnaire (DIBQ) and demographic questions.
The proportion of physiotherapists intending to deliver PIP was determined by scoring participants’ vignette plans as psychologically informed or non-psychologically informed. Binary regression was used to determine which questionnaire and demographic variables were associated with the intention to deliver PIP.

Results

One third of participants intended to deliver PIP in the management of LBP. Binary regression analysis showed that pain knowledge and attitudes were consistently associated with the intention to deliver PIP across vignettes (OR = 1.05, 95 % CI = 1.01–1.08; p = .015) (OR = 1.05, 95 % CI = 1.02–1.09, p = .005). Beliefs about the consequences of PIP was associated with the intention to deliver PIP in one vignette (OR = 2.15, 95 % CI = 1.12–4.11, p = .021).

Conclusion

Findings suggest that physiotherapists’ knowledge and attitudes towards pain and their belief that PIP is effective are associated with PIP delivery. Improving pain knowledge and beliefs around PIP may improve the quality of LBP management.
背景:先前的定性研究揭示了物理治疗师提供心理知情物理治疗(PIP)的几个障碍。目前尚不清楚哪些因素与PIP交付最相关。目的:确定Aotearoa/新西兰打算为非特异性腰痛(LBP)患者实施PIP治疗的物理治疗师的比例,并确定与实施PIP治疗意图相关的因素。设计:本研究采用横断面在线小案例调查设计。设置:邀请新西兰/新西兰的注册物理治疗师定期治疗LBP。方法:参与者(n = 224)概述了他们对两名持续性腰痛患者的预期评估和治疗计划。然后,他们完成了疼痛知识和态度问卷(KNAP),实施行为决定因素问卷(DIBQ)的组成部分和人口统计问题。物理治疗师打算提供PIP的比例是通过将参与者的小插曲计划评分为心理知情或非心理知情来确定的。使用二元回归来确定哪些问卷和人口统计变量与提供PIP的意图相关。结果:三分之一的参与者打算在LBP的治疗中使用PIP。二元回归分析显示,疼痛知识和态度与跨小节提供PIP的意图一致(OR = 1.05, 95% CI = 1.01-1.08; p = 0.015) (OR = 1.05, 95% CI = 1.02-1.09, p = 0.005)。在一个小插曲中,对PIP后果的信念与实施PIP的意图相关(OR = 2.15, 95% CI = 1.12-4.11, p = 0.021)。结论:研究结果表明,物理治疗师对疼痛的认识和态度以及他们对PIP有效的信念与PIP的实施有关。提高PIP的疼痛知识和信念可以提高腰痛管理的质量。

Background

Achilles tendon rupture (ATR) impacts the structure and function of the tendon and triceps surae. We aimed to describe recovery at different time points after injury using ultrasound imaging, strength testing and patient reported outcomes.

Methods

Cross-sectional study design, collecting data from 15 different non-surgically managed participants at six independent rehabilitation time points (week 0, 8, 10, 16, 26, 52 post ATR). Outcomes included ultrasound tissue characterisation (UTC), isometric plantarflexor strength, Achilles tendon rupture score (ATRS), Euroqol 5-dimension, hospital anxiety and depression scale and Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia. UTC echo type percentage is reported as aligned fibrillar structure (AFS) and disorganised fibrillar structure (DFS).

Findings

Participants mean (SD) age was 48 years (15.8), 91 % male, body mass index 29kg/m2 (4.3) and 54 % was white British. Primary mechanism of injury was sport (71 %).
Ruptured tendon cross-sectional area (CSA) was 303.55 mm2 (90.43) at 10 weeks and 218.18 mm2 (61.82) at 52 weeks post ATR. For the ruptured tendon, later assessment time points were associated with decreased AFS but had no association with DFS.
Isometric plantarflexor strength on the ruptured limb at 52 weeks was 61.3 kg (20.8) or 0.7x bodyweight (BW). Non-ruptured plantarflexor strength was 93.3 kg (29.5) or 1.1x BW. Leg symmetry index at 52 weeks was 67 %. ATRS at 52 weeks was 75.1 (16.5).

Conclusion

Substantial tendon remodelling may occur during the initial 52 weeks post ATR, CSA was 28 % lower from 10 weeks to 52 weeks. At 52 weeks there was persistence of fibrillar disorganisation, isometric plantarflexor weakness and reduced function.

Background

There is a lack of understanding on how to optimally combine MRI findings to assess their association with low back pain (LBP).

Objective

To explore expert opinions on optimal approaches to sum or combine lumbar spine MRI findings, and to identify specific combinations of MRI findings considered most strongly associated with LBP.

Design

A two-round modified Delphi study.

Methods

The participants indicated whether a sum score or the most severe finding was most optimal to sum different MRI findings. They also suggested combinations of MRI findings believed to be most strongly associated with 5 different LBP phenotypes (acute/chronic LBP with or without non-radicular leg pain; acute/chronic LBP with radicular leg pain; chronic LBP with bilateral leg pain, and neurogenic claudication). Data were analysed descriptively and visualised using graphs.

Results

Fifty-five multidisciplinary experts participated in round 1 and 39 in round 2. Sum scores were preferred for findings such as disc degeneration, Modic changes, and facet joint degeneration, especially for chronic LBP phenotypes. Using the most severe finding was favoured for nerve root-related or stenotic findings, especially for acute LBP and radicular phenotypes. Suggested combinations varied by phenotype, with disc degeneration, Modic changes, and disc herniation frequent in non-radicular phenotypes, and foraminal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, and nerve root compression more frequent for radicular phenotypes.

Conclusion

The optimal approach to sum or combine lumbar MRI findings depends on the LBP phenotypes. This study provides hypotheses for future research to test the clinical value of combinations of lumbar MRI findings in LBP.
背景:对于如何将MRI检查结果与腰痛(LBP)的相关性进行最佳结合,目前还缺乏了解。目的探讨专家对汇总或组合腰椎MRI表现的最佳方法的意见,并确定与腰痛最密切相关的MRI表现的特定组合。设计:两轮改良德尔菲研究。方法:参与者指出,综合评分或最严重的发现是否最适合综合不同的MRI表现。他们还提出了与5种不同的腰痛表型(急性/慢性腰痛伴或不伴非神经根性腿痛;急性/慢性腰痛伴神经根性腿痛;慢性腰痛伴双侧腿痛和神经源性跛行)最密切相关的MRI结果组合。对数据进行描述性分析,并使用图表进行可视化。结果第一轮共有55名多学科专家参加,第二轮共有39名多学科专家参加。对于椎间盘退变、Modic改变和小关节退变等发现,特别是慢性腰痛表型,总评分是首选的。使用最严重的发现有利于神经根相关或狭窄的发现,特别是急性LBP和神经根表型。建议的组合因表型而异,非神经根型椎间盘退变、模变性和椎间盘突出常见,而神经根型椎间孔狭窄、椎体滑脱和神经根压迫更常见。结论腰椎MRI表现的综合或组合的最佳方法取决于腰痛的表型。本研究为未来的研究提供了假设,以检验腰痛的腰椎MRI表现组合的临床价值。

Introduction

Frozen shoulder (FS) is a common musculoskeletal condition characterized by shoulder pain and range of motion restrictions. While traditionally considered nociceptive, recent research suggests central pain mechanisms may also be involved.

Objective

This study aimed to determine the effect of experimental sensorimotor incongruence (SMI) on pain and sensory disturbances in people with FS and asymptomatic controls.

Methods

The study included two groups: people with FS and asymptomatic controls. Participants underwent a bimanual coordination test with eight paradigms (four per side: congruent and incongruent with a mirror or whiteboard). Outcome measures were assessed immediately after each paradigm and consisted of pain, discomfort, perceived temperature or weight changes, experiencing an extra or loss of an arm, and feelings of peculiarity.

Results

A total of 69 participants were included (36 with FS and 33 asymptomatic controls). Results showed that people with FS experienced a significant increase in pain and sensory discomfort when exposed to SMI paradigms compared to controls. Both congruent and incongruent paradigms exacerbated pain levels, whereas changes in perceived weight were observed variably across congruent and incongruent movements.

Conclusion

These findings support the hypothesis that SMI plays a crucial role in pain modulation in FS, possibly through altered central pain processing and neuroplastic changes. The results highlight the need for therapeutic approaches addressing both musculoskeletal and neuroplastic components of FS.
肩周炎(FS)是一种常见的肌肉骨骼疾病,以肩关节疼痛和活动受限为特征。虽然传统上被认为是伤害性的,但最近的研究表明,中枢疼痛机制也可能参与其中。目的探讨实验性感觉运动不一致(SMI)对FS患者和无症状对照者疼痛和感觉障碍的影响。方法研究分为两组:FS患者和无症状对照组。参与者进行了8个范式的双手协调测试(每侧4个范式:与镜子或白板一致和不一致)。结果测量在每个模式后立即进行评估,包括疼痛,不适,感知温度或体重变化,经历额外或失去手臂以及特殊感觉。结果共纳入69例受试者,其中FS组36例,无症状对照组33例。结果显示,与对照组相比,FS患者在暴露于SMI范式时疼痛和感觉不适显著增加。一致和不一致的范式都加剧了疼痛水平,而在一致和不一致的运动中观察到的感知体重的变化是可变的。结论这些发现支持了SMI在FS疼痛调节中起关键作用的假设,可能通过改变中枢性疼痛加工和神经可塑性改变。结果强调需要治疗方法解决FS的肌肉骨骼和神经可塑性成分。

Background

There is limited knowledge on whether prior knee surgery impacts the clinical profile and treatment outcomes for individuals with knee osteoarthritis (OA).

Objectives

The study aimed to (i) compare individual and clinical characteristics, and (ii) evaluate whether outcomes of first-line treatment differ between individuals with prior knee surgery and those without.

Methods

This study used data from the Swedish Osteoarthritis Register to compare individuals with and without prior knee surgery. Independent t-tests and chi-square tests analyzed characteristics, while linear and logistic regressions assessed group differences at the 3-month follow-up.

Results

Of the 94 116 individuals included, 15 637 (17 %) had prior knee surgery. At baseline, those with prior knee surgery were more likely to be male (48 % vs. 29 %), younger (mean age 63 vs. 67 years), and meet physical activity recommendations (69 % vs. 66 %). At the 3-month follow-up, individuals with prior knee surgery had higher odds of expressing willingness to undergo surgery (OR 1.50 [95 % CI, 1.40 to 1.60]), experiencing walking difficulties (OR 1.24 [95 % CI, 1.19 to 1.30]), and to reaching the recommended level of physical activity (OR 1.21 [95 % CI, 1.14 to 1.27]).

Conclusion

The findings suggest that individuals with knee OA and a history of prior knee surgery may represent a specific clinical phenotype, characterized by a younger age, male sex, and higher levels of physical activity when entering first-line treatment. Despite positive treatment responses in both groups, individuals with a history of surgery more often reported ongoing clinical features at the 3-month follow-up.
背景既往膝关节手术是否会影响膝关节骨性关节炎(OA)患者的临床表现和治疗结果,目前所知有限。该研究旨在(i)比较个体和临床特征,(ii)评估有过和没有做过膝关节手术的个体在一线治疗的结果是否有差异。方法:本研究使用来自瑞典骨关节炎登记的数据来比较有过和没有做过膝关节手术的个体。独立t检验和卡方检验分析特征,而线性和逻辑回归评估3个月随访时组间差异。结果94116例患者中,15637例(17%)有膝关节手术史。在基线时,既往膝关节手术的患者更可能是男性(48%对29%),更年轻(平均年龄63对67岁),并符合体育锻炼建议(69%对66%)。在3个月的随访中,有过膝关节手术的患者表示愿意接受手术的几率更高(OR为1.50 [95% CI, 1.40至1.60]),出现行走困难(OR为1.24 [95% CI, 1.19至1.30]),并达到推荐的身体活动水平(OR为1.21 [95% CI, 1.14至1.27])。结论:研究结果表明,膝关节OA患者和既往膝关节手术史可能代表一种特定的临床表型,其特征是在进入一线治疗时年龄更年轻,男性,体力活动水平更高。尽管两组均有积极的治疗反应,但在3个月的随访中,有手术史的个体更常报告持续的临床特征。

Background

The analysis of single-leg (SL) tasks' movement quality helps assess lower limb injury risk. 3D motion capture is the gold standard, but it is costly and often inaccessible. The Qualitative Analysis of Single Leg Loading Assessment Tool (QASLS) offers a reliable and valid alternative. No study compared real-time vs. video-recorded QASLS assessments of single-leg squat (SLS).

Objectives

Comparing the real-time vs. video-recorded QASLS assessment reliability of SLS.

Design

Reliability study.

Methods

100 healthy individuals were included, performing 10 video-recorded SLS per lower limb. An assessor scored them real-time, and an independent rater evaluated the video-recorded tests, both with QASLS. Wilcoxon test was used to study the difference between assessments; inter-rater reliability between real-time vs. video-recorded QASLS assessments was assessed with the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) with the 95 % confidence interval (CI).

Results

Wilcoxon test reported significant differences emerged between left real-time and recorded QASLS (Z = −2.780; p = 0.005) and right + left real-time and recorded QASLS (Z = −2.976; p = 0.003); not between right real-time and recorded QASLS (Z = −1.331; p = 0.183). Inter-rater reliability was poor between left real-time and recorded QASLS (ICC = 0.306; 95 % CI:0.118, 0.473) and right + left real-time and recorded QASLS (ICC = 0.425; 95 % CI:0.304, 0.532), and moderate between right real-time and recorded QASLS (ICC = 0.524; 95 % CI:0.365, 0.652).

Conclusions

SLS evaluation with QASLS should be conducted on video-recorded playbacks rather than real-time, since the latter assessment is not reliable.
背景单腿任务运动质量分析有助于评估下肢损伤风险。3D动作捕捉是黄金标准,但它成本高昂,而且往往难以实现。定性分析单腿载荷评估工具(QASLS)提供了一个可靠和有效的替代方案。没有研究比较实时和视频记录的单腿深蹲(SLS) QASLS评估。目的比较实时与录像QASLS评价的可靠性。DesignReliability研究。方法选取100名健康个体,每条下肢进行10次录像SLS。一名评估员对他们进行实时评分,一名独立评分员对录像测试进行评估,两者都使用QASLS。采用Wilcoxon检验研究评估之间的差异;采用类内相关系数(ICC)评估实时与视频记录的QASLS评估之间的等级间信度,置信区间为95%。结果wilcoxon检验报告,左侧实时与记录的QASLS (Z = - 2.780, p = 0.005)和右侧+左侧实时与记录的QASLS (Z = - 2.976, p = 0.003)存在显著差异;正确实时QASLS与记录QASLS之间无差异(Z = - 1.331; p = 0.183)。左侧实时与记录的QASLS (ICC = 0.306, 95% CI:0.118, 0.473)和右侧+左侧实时与记录的QASLS (ICC = 0.425, 95% CI:0.304, 0.532)的评分间信度较差,右侧实时与记录的QASLS (ICC = 0.524, 95% CI:0.365, 0.652)的评分间信度中等。结论采用QASLS对患者的ssls进行评价,应采用录像回放法,而非实时评价,后者评价不可靠。

Background

Labels for neck pain after a motor vehicle crash (MVC) influenced recovery expectations and management preferences. Research is needed to understand why these expectations and preferences varied based on the label given.

Aim

To explore how people perceive different labels for neck pain after an MVC.

Methods

We performed a content analysis of qualitative data from a randomised controlled study. 2229 participants with and without neck pain read a vignette describing a patient with neck pain after an MVC, using one of five labels: whiplash injury, whiplash-associated disorder, post-traumatic neck pain, neck pain, or neck strain. Participants provided free-text responses on the label's meaning, associated words/feelings, required health services/treatments, and any confusion about the label.

Results

Compared to neck strain, post-traumatic neck pain, whiplash-associated disorder, and neck pain more commonly evoked negative feelings about symptom severity and prognosis (4.7 % for neck strain versus 7.2 %–16.0 % for other labels) and psychological distress (7.3 % versus 13.0 %–30.3 %). Regarding treatment preference, neck pain most commonly promoted need for passive physical therapies (21.6 %) and imaging (9.8 %), whereas neck strain most often promoted need for exercise (11.6 %) and rarely imaging (3.4 %). Neck pain was the most confusing label (39.9 %), while whiplash injury was the least (14.8 %), with confusion arising from vagueness or a mismatch with diagnostic expectations.

Conclusion

The meanings, feelings and confusions evoked by neck pain labels after an MVC may explain their impact on recovery expectations and management preferences. Clinicians may consider avoid labels associated with negative feelings and lower preferences for guideline-recommended treatments.
背景:机动车碰撞(MVC)后颈部疼痛的标签影响恢复预期和管理偏好。需要进行研究,以了解为什么这些期望和偏好会根据给定的标签而变化。目的:探讨人们如何感知MVC后颈部疼痛的不同标签。方法:我们对一项随机对照研究的定性数据进行了内容分析。2229名有或没有颈部疼痛的参与者阅读了一篇描述MVC后颈部疼痛患者的小短文,使用五个标签之一:鞭打损伤、鞭打相关疾病、创伤后颈部疼痛、颈部疼痛或颈部劳损。参与者就标签的含义、相关词语/感觉、所需的健康服务/治疗以及对标签的任何困惑提供了自由文本回答。结果:与颈部劳损相比,创伤后颈部疼痛、颈部扭伤相关疾病和颈部疼痛更常引起对症状严重程度和预后的负面感觉(颈部劳损为4.7%,其他标签为7.2% - 16.0%)和心理困扰(7.3%,13.0% - 30.3%)。关于治疗偏好,颈部疼痛最常促进被动物理治疗(21.6%)和影像学(9.8%),而颈部劳伤最常促进运动(11.6%)和很少影像学(3.4%)。颈部疼痛是最容易混淆的标签(39.9%),而颈部扭伤最少(14.8%),混淆是由于模糊或与诊断期望不匹配引起的。结论:颈痛标签在MVC术后引起的意义、感觉和困惑可以解释其对康复预期和治疗偏好的影响。临床医生可能会考虑避免与负面情绪和指南推荐治疗的低偏好相关的标签。
