چکیده
Methods. Consecutive neck pain patients over the age of 18 were recruited from the outpatient clinic at the AECC at the time of their initial consultation. Patients were excluded if they had radiographic evidence of congenital anomalies, fracture/dislocation, inflammatory, infectious or other serious pathologies. Patients were asked to answer questions regarding demographics, history of injury/trauma and duration of neck pain, and presence of neck pain related dizziness/unsteadiness. Pain intensity was measured using two, 11-point numerical rating scales while disability was measured with the Neck Disability Index (NDI).
