摘要

环境条件与疼痛的发作或患有肌肉骨骼病变或神经疾病的慢性患者症状的复发有关。最近的研究表明,物理疗法似乎也有助于应对气候变化的症状。本研究的目的是调查温度和降水与物理治疗转诊的关系。所有数据回顾性收集三年,即2020-2022年。共研究了2164例转诊病例,其中78%为女性病例。我们的研究结果强调了(a)肌肉骨骼问题的转诊与温度和降水等天气指标相关,(b)这种关系在女性中被发现更强,(c)她们与神经问题之间的趋势略有不同。这些结果表明,低温和高降水与慢性肌肉骨骼疼痛的转诊增加密切相关,女性更容易受到降水的影响。此外,发现慢性神经问题的转诊数量增加与极端温度有关。考虑到这些发现,康复中心和医疗保健系统有机会立即提供可靠和高质量的服务,始终以安全和最大限度地减轻慢性患者的痛苦为指导。

Chronic Sufferers and Environmental Conditions
Environmental conditions are associated with the onset of pain or the recurrence of symptoms of chronic sufferers either with musculoskeletal pathologies or neurological diseases. Recent research has indicated that physiotherapy also appears to be helpful in dealing with the symptoms of climate change. The purpose of this study was to investigate how temperature and precipitation are associated with referrals for physical therapy. All the data were collected retrospectively for three years, 2020–2022. A total of 2164 referrals were studied, 78% of which were female cases. Our results highlighted that (a) referrals with musculoskeletal problems are associated with the weather indicators of temperature and precipitation, (b) this relation was found to be stronger for females, and (c) there were slightly differentiated trends between them and those with neurological problems. These results suggest that low temperatures and high precipitation are strongly associated with increased referrals for chronic musculoskeletal pain and that females are more vulnerable to precipitation. Moreover, the increased number of referrals with chronic neurological problems was found to be associated with extreme temperatures. Considering these findings, rehabilitation centers and healthcare systems have the opportunity to immediately provide reliable and qualitative services, guided always by the safety and maximum relief of chronic sufferers.
