We evaluated the medical and psychosocial experiences of 59 patients with idiopathic spasmodic torticollis (ST) by means of a structured questionnaire. The results generally corresponded with those of other studies in the literature. Diagnosis is delayed in many patients, and ST negatively influences the patients' social lives. Because drug treatment and physiotherapy are only of sufficient value in a minority, most patients seek benefit from numerous other therapies, none of which has been shown to improve ST.
我们通过一份结构化问卷评估了59例特发性痉挛性斜颈(ST)患者的医疗和心理社会经历。结果总体上与文献中其他研究的结果一致。许多患者的诊断有所延迟,并且ST对患者的社会生活产生负面影响。由于药物治疗和物理治疗仅对少数患者有足够的效果,大多数患者寻求多种其他疗法的帮助,但尚无一种疗法被证明能改善ST。
