A preliminary investigation was undertaken on 117 acute back pain cases, to assess the utility of counseling at the acute stage upon the course of recovery over the subsequent 6 months. In addition, the extent to which psychological reactions to acute injury would allow the 'tagging' of individuals at risk for chronic pain problems, was studied. The minimal rehabilitation counseling proved inadequate to effect the course of recovery, but remarkably accurate predictions were possible at the sub-chronic point (3 months) as to who would make complete recoveries.
对117例急性背痛病例进行了初步调查,以评估急性期咨询对后续6个月恢复过程的作用。此外,还研究了急性损伤的心理反应在多大程度上能够“标记”出有慢性疼痛问题风险的个体。事实证明,最低限度的康复咨询不足以影响恢复过程,但在亚慢性阶段(3个月),对于哪些人能够完全康复,却有可能做出非常准确的预测。
