  1. 1. Functional analysis of the cervical spine : Reliability, reference data and outcome after anterior cervical decompression and fusion

    Author : Anneli Peolsson; Karin Harms Ringdahl; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The aim of the thesis was to investigate the reliability of the test procedure, and to obtain reference values for active range of motion (AROM) of the neck, neck-, and hand strength. Another aim was to perform a broad assessment of outcome in patients with cervical disc disease operated on by anterior cervical decompression and fusion (ACDF) and to identify predictive factors for a good outcome.

    Abstract : This thesis concerned persons with persistent musculoskeletal pain in primary health care and had three aims. The first aim was to evaluate the effects of a web-based programme for behaviour change. The second aim was to create and evaluate a multimodal intervention. READ MORE

  3. 3. Evidence-Based Practice in Practice : Exploring Conditions for Using Research in Physiotherapy

    Author : Petra Dannapfel; Per Nilsen; Anneli Peolsson; Boel Andersson Gäre; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Research developments have led to increased opportunities for the use of improved diagnostic and treatment methods in physiotherapy and other areas of health care. The emergence of the evidence-based practice (EBP) movement has led to higher expectations for a more research-informed health care practice that integrates the best available research evidence with clinical experience and patient priorities and values.

  4. 4. Clinical and patient-reported outcomes after anterior cervical decompression and fusion surgery : A focus on functioning and daily life

    Author : Anna Hermansen; Anneli Peolsson; Ann-Sofi Kammerlind; Ludek Vavruch; Katarina Hjelm; Gunnevi Sundelin; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Anterior cervical decompression and fusion (ACDF), with or without an intervertebral cage to add support to the fused segment, is an established surgical treatment of cervical radiculopathy due to cervical disc disease. High recovery rates and pain reductions after surgery have been reported, with similar results with or without a cage. READ MORE
