| Abstract | Uvod: Bolni sindromi kralježnice su jedni od vodećih bolesti modernog društva, a značajno utječu na kvalitetu života pojedine osobe i opterećuju zdravstveni sustav. Kralježnica, kao ključna struktura mišićno-koštanog sustava, omogućava pokretljivost i stabilnost tijela te štiti leđnu moždinu. Bolni sindromi kralježnice mogu se javljati u različitim dijelovima kralježnice, pa se shodno tome dijele na vratni ili cervikalni bolni sindrom, prsni ili torakalni bolni sindrom te slabinski ili lumbalni bolni sindrom. Uzroci ovih sindroma su višestruki i mogu uključivati mehaničke faktore, degenerativne promjene, ozljede, nepravilno držanje te fizičku neaktivnost. Glavni cilj ovoga istraživanja je bilo ispitati učestalost pojavljivanja bolnih sindroma kralježnice u Domu zdravlja Primorsko-goranske županije u razdoblju od 2018. godine do 2023. godine.
Ispitanici i metode: Ovo istraživanje je retrospektivno te je obuhvatilo 350 ispitanika iz baze podataka fizikalne terapije i rehabilitacije u Domu Zdravlja Primorsko-goranske županije, lokalitet Vežica. Zbog nepotpunih fizioterapeutskih kartona, iz istraživanja je moralo biti isključeno 63 ispitanika, što znači da je istraživanje provedeno na uzorku od 287 ispitanika. Prikupljanje potrebnih podataka se provodilo u prostorijama Doma Zdravlja, lokalitet Vežica, tijekom travnja i svibnja 2024. godine, a pretraživala se baza podataka u razdoblju od 1.4.2018. do 1.4.2023. godine. Kriteriji uključenja u istraživanje su bili ispitanici stariji od 18 godina, prisutnosti bolnih sindroma kralježnice (vratni, prsni ili slabinski bolni sindrom) u anamnezi te potpuno ispunjeni podaci u fizioterapijskom kartonu. S druge strane, kriteriji isključenja su bile osobe mlađe od 18 godina te osobe s radikulopatijama, prijelomima i tumorima.
Rezultati: Dobiveni rezultati su pokazali kako se bolni sindromi kralježnice javljaju češće kod osoba ženskog spola-198 puta (68,99%), a 89 puta (31,01%) kod osoba muškog spola. Cervikalni bolni sindrom se javio 180 puta (62,72%), lumbalni bolni sindrom 72 puta (25,09%), a torakalni bolni sindrom 35 puta (12,19%).
Zaključak: Istraživanjem se dokazalo da su bolni sindromi kralježnice, posebno cervikalni i lumbalni, zastupljeni u velikom broju, a također predstavljaju značajan zdravstveni problem u općoj populaciji. Najveću incidenciju imale su žene srednje i starije životne dobi, te osobe koje se bave sjedilačkim vrstama zanimanja. |
| Abstract (english) | Introduction: Pain syndromes of the queen are one of the leading diseases of modern society, and they significantly affect the quality of life of an individual and burden the health system. The spine, as a key structure of the musculoskeletal system, enables the mobility and stability of the body and protects the spinal cord. Pain syndromes of the spine can occur in different parts of the spine, and accordingly, they are divided into neck or cervical pain syndrome, chest or thoracic pain syndrome, and lumbar or lumbar pain syndrome. The causes of these syndromes are multiple and may include mechanical factors, degenerative changes, injuries, improper posture, and physical inactivity. The main goal of this research was to examine the frequency of occurrence of painful syndromes of the queen in the Health Center of the Primorje-Gorski Kotar County from 2018 to 2023.
Respondents and methods: This research is retrospective and included 350 respondents from the database of physical therapy and rehabilitation in the Primorje-Gorski Kotar County Health Center, Vežica locality. Due to incomplete physiotherapy records, 63 subjects had to be excluded from the study, which means the study was conducted on a sample of 287 subjects. The collection of the necessary data was carried out in the premises of the Health Center, Vežica locality, during April and May 2024, and the database was requested in the period from 04/01/2018. until 1.4.2023. year. The criteria for inclusion in the research were subjects over 18 years of age, the presence of painful spine syndromes (neck, chest, or lumbar pain syndrome) in the anamnesis and filled-out data in the physiotherapy record. On the other hand, the exclusion criteria were persons under 18 years of age and persons with radiculopathy, fractures, and tumors.
Results: The results showed that painful spine syndromes occur more often in women - 198 times (68.99%), and 89 times (31.01%) in men. Cervical pain syndrome occurred 180 times (62.72%), lumbar pain syndrome 72 times (25.09%), and thoracic pain syndrome 35 times (12.19%).
Conclusion: The research showed that pain syndromes of the spine, especially cervical and lumbar, are represented in large numbers, and also represent a significant health problem in the general population. The highest incidence was among middle-aged and elderly women, and people engaged in sedentary occupations. |
