成人哮喘患者的肌肉骨骼功能障碍和疼痛
2011/03/28
摘要
背景:成人持续性哮喘患者,由于呼吸肌负荷超载,导致机械变化,可能会诱发姿势慢性改变、肌肉骨骼功能异常和疼痛,然而,目前对这些变化了解较少。
目的:本试验旨在评价成人持续性哮喘患者其姿势对称性、肌肉长短和慢性疼痛的情况。
方法:本试验为横断面、对照研究,有30名轻度(n = 17)和严重(n = 13) 成人持续性哮喘患者入选。15名非哮喘志愿者作为对照。哮喘分级根据全球哮喘防治组织(GINA)标准。通过头和肩的位置、胸壁的运动和后部(躯干和下肢)肌肉灵活性来评价姿势的对称性和肌肉长短。此外,观察这些指标的可重复性。同时评价患者的疼痛。
结果:与非哮喘患者相比,轻度或严重持续性哮喘患者的头和肩前倾,胸壁扩张较小,肩关节内旋下降,胸椎灵活性下降。此外,与非哮喘患者相比,哮喘患者存在明显的慢性胸、颈和肩疼痛(P< 0.05)。
结论:成人持续性哮喘患者存在肌肉骨骼功能障碍和慢性疼痛,这些表现与哮喘的严重程度无关,但可能与疾病症状出现的年龄相关。

Abstract
Background. The mechanical alterations related to the overload of respiratory muscles observed in adults with persistent asthma might lead to the development of chronic alterations in posture, musculoskeletal dysfunction and pain; however, these changes remain poorly understood.
Objective. This study aimed to assess postural alignment, muscle shortening and chronic pain in adults with persistent asthma.
Methods. This cross-sectional and controlled study enrolled 30 patients with mild (n = 17) and severe (n = 13) persistent asthma. Fifteen non-asthmatic volunteers were also assessed. Asthma was classified by the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) guidelines. Postural alignment and muscle shortening were evaluated by head and shoulder positions, chest wall mobility, and posterior (trunk and lower limb) muscle flexibility. In addition, the measures used were previously tested for their reproducibility. Pain complaints were also assessed.
Results. In comparison with non-asthmatic subjects, patients with mild or severe persistent asthma held their head and shoulders more forward and had lower chest wall expansion, decreased shoulder internal rotation, and decreased thoracic spine flexibility. Chronic lower thoracic, cervical, and shoulder pain was significantly increased in patients with mild or severe asthma compared with non-asthmatic subjects (p < 0.05).
Conclusion. Adults with persistent asthma have musculoskeletal dysfunction and chronic pain that is independent of the severity of their disease but that might be related to their age at the onset of disease symptoms.
