Treatment of Patients With Neck Pain After a Commuting Accident
Introduction. Neck pain is one of the main causes of incapacity for work. The economic impact of neck pain is considerable due to the cost of medical treatment and physiotherapy. Accidents in itinere, those that occur on the way between home and the workplace, can cause pain and functional impairment.
Objective. To analyze the relationship between the time off work following accidents on the way to and from work and the type of treatment received.
Material and method. Multicenter retrospective cohort study. Data will be collected from 146 patients. The primary variable of the study will be the time on sick leave (in days), with the type of intervention received (manual therapy or not) being the dependent variable. The secondary variables, estimated as modifying or confounding, will be the intensity of the pain (visual analog scale), sex, age, occupational cervical strain, type of contract (salaried/self-employed) and the number of physiotherapy sessions received.
