Intradiscal Pressure Changes during Manual Cervical Distraction: A Cadaveric Study
The objective of this study was to measure intradiscal pressure (IDP) changes in the lower cervical spine during a manual cervical distraction (MCD) procedure. Incisions were made anteriorly, and pressure transducers were inserted into each nucleus at lower cervical discs. Four skilled doctors of chiropractic (DCs) performed MCD procedure on nine specimens in prone position with contacts at C5 ...
متن کاملStress in lumbar intervertebral discs during distraction: a cadaveric study.
BACKGROUND CONTEXT The intervertebral disc is a common source of low back pain (LBP). Prospective studies suggest that treatments that intermittently distract the disc might be beneficial for chronic LBP. Although the potential exists for distraction therapies to affect the disc biomechanically, their effect on intradiscal stress is debated. PURPOSE To determine if distraction alone, distract...
متن کاملIntradiscal pressure monitoring in the cervical spine.
BACKGROUND Discography has been widely used in the lumbar and cervical spine as a diagnostic tool to identify sources of discogenic pain that may be amenable to surgical treatment. Discography in the cervical spine is currently performed without the benefit of pressure monitoring, and corresponding pressure parameters have not been determined. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to develo...
متن کاملEffect of Spinal Stabilisation on Intradiscal Pressure in Cervical Spine
Introduction The aim of this work was analysis of the stabilisation influence on intradiscal pressure. The investigations were focused on the cervical region of spine, because this is a very common site for injury. It is caused of relatively big range and significant frequency of movements. Some of diseases need the application of the spinal fixator which changed the pressure of the adjacent re...
متن کاملFactors affecting intradiscal pressure measurement during in vitro biomechanical tests
OBJECTIVES To assess the reliability of intradiscal pressure measurement during in vitro biomechanical testing. In particular, the variability of measurements will be assessed for repeated measures by considering the effect of specimens and of freezing/thawing cycles. METHODS Thirty-six functional units from 8 porcine spines (S1: T7-T8, S2: T9-T10, S3: T12-T11, S4: T14-T13, S5: L1-L2 and S6: ...
