AIMS: Double crush syndrome is a clinical condition composed of neurological dysfunction due to compressive pathology at multiple sites along a single peripheral nerve. The aims were to investigate the characteristics and disabilities of women with double crush syndrome, to compare the spinal alignment to healthy women, and to determine the cut-offs for the spinal alignment characteristics.
METHODS: Twenty women with double crush syndrome (age: 49.50 ± 8.64 years) and 21 asymptomatic healthy controls (age: 44.76 ± 7.82 years) were included in the study. The physical characteristics, pain intensity, and symptoms were questioned. Disability with Disability of Arm and Shoulder Questionnaire and Neck Disability Index and spinal alignment with Spinal Mouse® (Idiag, Fehraltorf, Switzerland) were assessed.
RESULTS: The pain intensity at rest, night, and during activity was 3.70 ± 3.25, 6.01 ± 2.77, and 7.15 ± 2.68 cm, respectively. The most bothersome symptom was numbness (65%). The symptoms were seen in hands and/or fingers (55%), arms (15%), shoulder blade (15%), and neck (15%). The Disability of Arm and Shoulder Questionnaire and Neck Disability Index scores were 58.64 ± 15.41 and 19.55 ± 6.37, respectively. The sagittal thoracic curvature (p: .011) and lumbar curvature (p: .049) increased, and the overall spine mobility (p<.001) decreased in the double crush syndrome patients. The cut-off points were detected as 54.5° (area under the curve: 0.680, p: .049, 40% sensitivity, 99.9% specificity) for the thoracic spinal curvature, and 113.5° (area under the curve: 0.667, p<.000, 65% sensitivity, 99.9% specificity) for the overall spine mobility.
CONCLUSIONS: The double crush syndrome patients had moderate to severe pain and disability, increased thoracic and lumbar curvature, and decreased spine mobility. The cut-off values were found as 54.5° for thoracic curvature and 113.5° for spine mobility.
