Changes in neuromuscular, skeletal and movement-related functions in children with dorsalgia during medical rehabilitation

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Understanding the epidemiology of pain and what predisposes the pain in adulthood, it is important to study it in children, to determine the factors responsible for the initial episodes occurrence of initial episodes. At the present time, heterogeneity in the research methodology makes it impossible to compare the findings. A significant indicator is the health component of Body functions, Neuromuscular, skeletal and movement-related functions, which is assessed in accordance with the International Classification of Functioning of the ICF.

AIMS: To determine the significance of the Body functions components, to study and systematise their change in Neuromuscular, skeletal and movement-related functions in children with dorsalgia during medical rehabilitation.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: We observed 309 children with back pain: 150 boys (48.5%) and 159 girls (51.5%). Patients' mean age was 11.9±5.1 years, the minimum age — 4 years, the maximum age — up to 20 years in girls, 21 years in boys, in accordance with the age periodization accepted in our country.

RESULTS: Muscle function examination (b7303, b7305 (a), b7305 (b), b7306 (a), b7306 (b), b7401 (a), b7401 (b), b7401 (c), b7401 (d), b7401 (e), b7401 (h), b7402) revealed significant impairments in all groups. During the medical rehabilitation process in the main groups, a steady positive change in these indicators was continuously observed, which in a year reached the ICF determinant — absence of violations.

CONCLUSIONS: The health components of Body function scores in Neuromuscular, skeletal and movement related functions in children with dorsalgia are an important clinical tool for selecting rehabilitation programs and evaluating their effectiveness.
