Chiropractic & Manual Therapies Sep 09, 2017
Brockhusen SS, et al. – The clinicians examined how Danish chiropractors treated patients with acute and chronic non–specific neck pain and determined if management was compliant with recent Canadian guideline recommendations. For managing adult patients with acute and chronic non–specific neck–pain, Danish chiropractors used a wide range of treatment options. However, there were significant variations in treatments chiropractors offered for acute and chronic patients, especially for the use of exercise therapy, which was essentially reserved for chronic patients. Compared to what was seen for other complaints or health disciplines, Danish chiropractors compliance with guidelines for neck–pain patients was low but was neither worse nor better. The findings suggested a need for active knowledge translation strategies and robust implementation research.
