“…Meisingset et al (2016) obtained models with R 2 between 0.19 and 0.25, which would account for MCCs between 0.44 and 0.50, comparable to the contribution of neck motion parameters alone in this study. By adding other controlled factors, like time or baseline pain scores, better fits were obtained.…”

“…Treleaven et al (2016) recently published a paper with a multiple regression for the opposite relationship to the one presented here, in which the inputs were six different PROMs (including VAS and NDI as pain-related measures) and the output were the kinematic variables. Meisingset et al (2016) modeled other pain scales (Numerical Rating Scale and NDI) by regression with numerous mobility and motor control variables for different parts of the body.…”

“…Two longitudinal studies analyzed neck pain and motion during periods between 2 and 6 months (Chiu et al, 2005;Meisingset et al, 2016). In another study, patients were classified as "acute" (< 2 weeks), "subacute" (< 6 months) and "chronic" (> 6 months), according to the time passed between onset of pain and the assessments (Hermann and Reese, 2001).…”

Background: Biomechanical measures quantify motor control and functional deficits in Whiplash Associated Disorders (WAD), but few studies relate those measures to the clinical scales that are routinely used to assess patients. Most studies are limited to chronic neck pain, and report poor to moderate correlations. Objective: To define a statistical model that relates measures of neck kinematics with clinical scales of neck pain, in WAD patients during the rehabilitation process in the acute phase (less than 3 months since the accident). Methods: 96 WAD patients self-assessed their pain using VAS and NPQ, and passed neck motion tests as part of their rehabilitation program. Four regression models were fitted to analyze the effects of the measured kinematic parameters and subject-specific characteristics on VAS and NPQ. Model errors were compared to minimal clinically significant differences. Results: Multiple correlation coefficients of the models were between 0.74 and 0.90. More than 66% of that correlation was accounted for by subject-specific factors, and most of the other half by the measured kinematic parameters. Range of motion of flexion-extension and axial rotation, and harmonicity of flexion-extension, where the variables most consistently related to the decrease of pain. The error of the models was within the MCSD in more than 50% of the observations. Conclusions: Part of the individual progression of pain and pain-related disability in acute WAD patients, as rated by NPQ and VAS, can be mapped to objective kinematic parameters of neck mobility tests, like ranges of motion, velocities, repeatability and harmonicity of movements.

“…Inclusion criteria for NDP were the absence of neck pain episodes in the last 6 months and a neck disability index (NDI) [29] score of less than or equal to 8%. Inclusion criteria for the DP were a numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) equal to or greater than 3/10 [30] and an NDI > 8%. Exclusion criteria were for NDP and DP: impaired cognition, blindness, deafness, dizziness, or vestibular disorders diagnosed by a physician.…”

Various noninvasive measurement devices can be used to assess cervical motion. The size, complexity, and cost of gold-standard systems make them not suited to clinical practice, and actually difficult to use outside a dedicated laboratory. Nowadays, ultra-low-cost inertial measurement units are available, but without any packaging or a user-friendly interface. The so-called DYSKIMOT is a home-designed, small-sized, motion sensor based on the latter technology, aiming at being used by clinicians in “real-life situations”. DYSKIMOT was compared with a gold-standard optoelectronic system (Elite). Our goal was to evaluate the DYSKIMOT accuracy in assessing fast head rotations kinematics. Kinematics was simultaneously recorded by systems during the execution of the DidRen Laser test and performed by 15 participants and nine patients. Kinematic variables were computed from the position, speed and acceleration time series. Two-way ANOVA, Passing–Bablok regressions, and dynamic time warping analysis showed good to excellent agreement between Elite and DYSKIMOT, both at the qualitative level of the time series shape and at the quantitative level of peculiar kinematical events’ measured values. In conclusion, DYSKIMOT sensor is as relevant as a gold-standard system to assess kinematical features during fast head rotations in participants and patients, demonstrating its usefulness in both clinical practice and research environments.

“…The rational for healthy anti-directional motion is unknown; however, factors which influence cervical ROM may also influence the proportions of pro-and anti-directional motions. Multiple factors such as cervical anatomy [19], posture [33], biomechanics [34], motor control [35], position sense [36] and cervical proprioception [37] influence healthy cervical ROM.…”
