Zusammenfassung

Das Ziel dieser Literaturstudie war, die momentan vorhandene Evidenz von Übungsbehandlungen bei Nackenschmerzen zu sammeln und zusammenzufassen. Es gibt Evidenz für die positive Wirkung von Übungsbehandlungen bei Nackenschmerzen. Dabei stellte sich heraus, dass bei allgemeinen Nackenschmerzen spezifische Übungsprogramme keine besseren Ergebnisse erzielten als allgemeine aerobe Übungsprogramme. Spezifische Übungsprogramme wurden bislang noch nicht gut genug untersucht. Die Qualität der Methodik in den untersuchten Literaturstudien und Untersuchungen waren alle überdurchschnittlich. Allerdings bleibt die klinische Relevanz noch zu diskutieren.

Abstract

The purpose of this literature review was to collect and summarize the existing evidence for exercise in the treatment of neck pain. There is moderate evidence for the use of exercise in the treatment of neck pain. Specific exercise regimens do not produce better results than general aerobic or strength exercise for a general neck pain population. Specific exercise regimens for subgroups of neck pain sufferers are not well enough investigated. The methodological quality of the included papers is above average but the clinical relevance remains debatable.
