Kinematic cervical rotation performance in patients with acute non-specific neck pain during the DidRen test improves after manual mobilizations regardless of the painful spinal level
Background: Evaluation of kinematic axial cervical rotation performance is of major importance in the context of studying sensorimotor control of the neck. However, studies are missing on acute neck pain, on the influence of the level of provocation of spinal pain, and on the potential benefits of manual therapy mobilizations. Methods: A non-randomized prospective trial with intervention assessed the influence of acute non-specific neck pain on kinematic parameters during a fast axial head rotation task standardized with the DidRen laser test device. First, we compared kinematic parameters between patients and healthy controls. Second, we assessed whether upper or lower spinal pain location influenced these kinematic parameters. Finally, we examined the short-term effect of passive cervical mobilizations in patients on these kinematic variables. Results: We observed that patients were significantly slower (total time) to perform the DidRen laser test (4.5 s; p; pppp-1; p-1; p-2; p-2; p-1; p-1; p-2; ppp; ppp
