| Popis: | Background Although it is thought that there is a relationship between neck pain and scapular dysfunction, there are controversial results and no clear information in the literature regarding this issue. This study aimed to investigate the alterations in the 3-Dimensional scapular orientation on patients with non-specific neck pain. Method Thirty-four patients with chronic non-specific neck pain [age, 29.1 (5) years; height, 165.3 (6.1) centimeters; weight, 62.1 (9.6) kilogram] and 29 healthy controls [age, 28.2 (3.3) years; height, 166.8 (8.1) centimeters; weight, 60.9 (8.5) kilogram] were included in the study. 3-Dimensional scapular kinematics were obtained during arm elevation and lowering trials in the sagittal, scapular, and frontal planes. Findings Compared to healthy controls, the patients with neck pain demonstrated significantly reduced upward scapular rotation on both the dominant and non-dominant sides in all three planes. Patients with neck pain had increased internal rotation in the sagittal and frontal planes on the dominant side and increased external rotation in the frontal plane on the non-dominant side. No difference was observed between groups considering posterior scapular tilt. Interpretation There are alterations in the 3-Dimensional scapular orientations in patients with chronic non-specific neck pain compared to healthy controls. Therefore, the scapular control may also be examined in patients with neck pain and it can be included in the rehabilitation program if needed. |
