“…generate and sustain cervical muscle force and deficits in proprioception that can affect postural control. 17,18 Children have a greater head to body ratio than adults and less cervical strength, which may predispose them to greater cervical impairments after a concussive event. 19 Concussions are complex injuries that are multifaceted and can cause symptoms across multiple systems, making it difficult to differentiate concussion symptoms from cervical spine injuries.…”

Our objective was to examine the effect of current neck or shoulder pain on concussion outcomes. Variables included symptom resolution and return-to-sport time, symptom severity, amount of school missed, and sleep disturbances. Three hundred twelve patients (37% female; median age = 15.0 years; evaluated median = 9 days postinjury) reported experiencing current neck or shoulder pain at initial evaluation, and 268 did not (31% female; median age = 14.7 years; evaluated median = 8 days postinjury). Neck or shoulder pain was associated with longer symptom resolution time (β = 6.38, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.44, 10.31; P = .002), more severe symptoms (β = 7.06, 95% CI = 4.91, 9.21; P < .001), and greater odds of missing >5 days of school (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 1.89, 95% CI = 1.23, 2.93; P = .004), and postinjury sleep problems (aOR = 2.20, 95% CI = 1.51, 3.21; P < .001). Experiencing neck or shoulder pain during the initial postinjury clinical evaluation was associated with worsened clinical outcomes. Clinicians may consider referral to early rehabilitation following concussion among those who report neck or shoulder pain.

Objective: There are limited reports about the reliability of measuring neck extensor muscle strength using a portable dynamometer in neck pain patients. The aims of the current study were 1) to investigate intra-and inter-rater reliability of neck extensor isometric strength measurement using a portable dynamometer in patients with chronic nonspecific neck pain (CNSNP) and 2) to compare neck extensor isometric strength in participants with and without CNSNP. Methods: Guidelines for Reporting Reliability and Agreement Studies (GRRAS) were followed. Two examiners received a 15-minute training before enrollment. Inter-rater reliability was assessed with a 10-minute interval between measurements, and intra-rater reliability was assessed with a 10-day interval. Three trials were assessed and examiners were blind to the strength values (in Newtons) from other sessions of 20 individuals with CNSNP (mean ±SD= 37.9 ± 9.8y; Neck Disability Index 29.2 ± 7.4%) and 20 individuals with other musculoskeletal disorders (mean ± SD = 32.8 ± 46.2y). Results: Intra-rater reliability was excellent with intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC)(3,1) of 0.95 (CI:0.90-0.97) and inter-rater reliability was good to excellent with ICC(2,1) of 0.88 (CI:0.77-0.94) in CNSNP. No significant difference of neck extensor strength was found between CNSNP (93.27N±31.94) and Individuals without CNSNP (111.43N±40.11) (p > 0.05). Conclusion:A portable dynamometer is a reliable tool for measuring maximal isometric neck extension strength in individuals with CNSNP. Slightly but no significant differences of neck extensor strength values between individuals with and without CNSNP. Future studies are needed to assess the generalizability of the findings in patients with other muscle deconditioning.
