| Résumé : | Background Clinically relevant scores of neck disability have been observed in adults post mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), even in those who initially report to be recovered. Potentially cervical musculoskeletal and/or cervical sensorimotor impairments may underlie these persistent symptoms post mTBI. Objective To determine whether cervical impairments exist beyond expected recovery times following concussion compared to healthy controls (HC). Study design Observational cohort study. Methods Participants aged 18?60 years consisting of 39 HC, and 72 individuals, 4 weeks to 6 months post mTBI of which 35 considered themselves asymptomatic (Asymp), and 37 symptomatic (Symp). Cervical outcome measures included range and velocity of motion, flexor muscle endurance, presence of at least one dysfunctional cervical joint, joint position error -neutral and torsion, movement accuracy, smooth pursuit neck torsion test (SPNT) and balance. Results Individuals in the Symp mTBI group demonstrated significantly reduced: flexion and rotation range, rotation velocity, flexor endurance and movement accuracy as well as increased postural sway and a higher percentage had positive cervical joint dysfunction (p |
