ABSTRACT
INTRODUÇÃO: Atletas de contato estão sujeitos a lesões musculoesqueléticas devido às técnicas repetitivas aplicadas durante treinos e campeonatos. Isso pode levá-los a apresentar dores agudas e crônicas, e, a depender da técnica aplicada, diferentes regiões do corpo podem ser acometidas. Estudos nesta área focam na descrição da lesão ou trauma, no entanto, a presença de cinesiofobia nesta população é uma lacuna a ser investigada. OBJETIVO: Descrever o perfil de dor e cinesiofobia em atletas de Judô da categoria master. MÉTODO: Estudo observacional, descritivo, de corte transversal, realizado com 29 atletas de judô master inscritos na Federação Baiana. Para descrição da dor, foram utilizados o Inventário Breve de Dor (IBD) e Doleur Neuropathique Questionnaire (DN4) e a Escala de Cinesiofobia de Tampa (ECT). Os dados foram tabulados e analisados descritivamente através do software Excel for Windows® utilizando valor absoluto ou média (desvio padrão). RESULTADOS: Os dados do IBD mostraram que a média geral de dor foi de 5,1 ± 1,8, o tratamento optado foi majoritariamente o farmacológico e a região mais acometida foi a face anterior do joelho. Dos 29 participantes, 9 (31%) apresentavam o escore ≥3, indicando presença de dor neuropática e cinesiofobia leve com média geral de 33,8 ± 6,7 no escore da ECT. CONSIDERAÇÕES FINAIS: Os atletas apresentaram dor moderada com pouco impacto na vida pessoal e as regiões com maior incidência foram os joelhos. Cinesiofobia leve esteve presente em mais da metade dos participantes e um terço apresentou dor neuropática.
INTRODUCTION: Contact athletes are subject to musculoskeletal injuries due to repetitive techniques applied during training and championships. This can lead to acute and chronic pain, and depending on the technique applied, different regions of the body may be affected. Studies in this area focus on the description of injury or trauma, however, the presence of kinesiophobia in this population is a gap to be investigated. OBJECTIVE: To describe the profile of pain and kinesiophobia in judo athletes of the master category. METHOD: An observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study conducted with 29 judo master athletes enrolled in the Bahia Federation. For pain description, the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) and Doleur Neuropathique Questionnaire (DN4) and the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK) were used. The data were tabulated and analyzed descriptively through the software Excel for Windows® using absolute or mean value (standard deviation). RESULTS: The BPI data showed that the overall pain mean was 5.1 ± 1.8, the treatment chosen was mostly pharmacological and the region most affected was the anterior knee. Of the 29 participants, 9 (31%) had score 3, indicating the presence of neuropathic pain and mild kinesiophobia with an overall mean of 33.8 ± 6.7 on the TSK score. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: The athletes presented moderate pain with little impact on personal life and the regions with the highest incidence were the knees. Mild kinesiophobia was present in more than half of the participants and one third presented neuropathic pain.

Objective:To explore the relationship between kinesiophobia and somnipathy among inpatients with lumbar degenerative disease after surgery, and analyze the mediating effects of post-traumatic stress disorder and family care.Methods:A cross-sectional survey method was adopted, from July 2020 to July 2022, a total of 130 lumbar degenerative disease patients from Wuhan Dongxihu District People′s Hospital were enrolled as research object by convenience sampling method. General information questionnaire, Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Posttraumatic Stress Checklist-civilian version and Family APGAR index were used for investigation. A structural equation model was established to evaluate the mediating effect of post-traumatic stress disorder, family care on kinesiophobia and somnipathy.Results:The scores of kinesiophobia, somnipathy, post-traumatic stress disorder and family care were (39.95 ± 3.90), (7.63 ± 0.46), (25.99 ± 4.99), (5.67 ± 1.76) points, respectively. There were significant differences in the scores of somnipathy in terms of age, monthly income, course of disease and pain degree ( F values were 3.21 to 10.12, all P<0.05). The dimensions and total scores of somnipathy were positively correlated with kinesiophobia ( r values were 0.347 to 0.800, all P<0.05) and post-traumatic stress disorder ( r values were 0.385 to 0.825, all P<0.05), negatively correlated with the scores of family care ( r values were - 0.653 to - 0.282, all P<0.05); the scores of family care was negatively correlated with kinesiophobia and post-traumatic stress disorder ( r = - 0.695, - 0.637, both P<0.05); the scores of kinesiophobia was positively correlated with post-traumatic stress disorder ( r = 0.773, P<0.05). The indirect effect of kinesiophobia on somnipathy was identified, and the total indirect effect value was 0.44; the indirect effect value of family care and post-traumatic stress disorder was 0.09, which accounted for 12.0% of the total effect. Conclusions:Post-traumatic stress disorder and family care play a multiple mediating role on the relationship between kinesiophobia and somnipathy in patients with lumbar degenerative disease after surgery.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the status and influencing factors of physical activity, sedentary behavior in middle-aged and elderly patients with stable coronary heart disease, and to provide reference for clinical medical staff to formulate targeted intervention measures.Methods:This was a cross-sectional survey. From March to June 2022, a convenience sampling was used to select 378 middle-aged and elderly patients with stable coronary heart disease in the ward and clinic of Department of Cardiology, Jinshan Hospital, Fudan University. The general information questionnaire, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, the Adult Sedentary Behavior Questionnaire, the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia Heart, the Self-efficacy for Chronic Disease Scale and the Social Support Rating Scale were used for investigation.Results:The total metabolic equivalent of physical activity and sedentary time in middle-aged and elderly patients with stable coronary heart disease were 31.40 (21.73, 49.67) MET-h/w and 8(7, 9) h/d respectively. The 39.7% (150/378) patients reached physical activity guidelines recommendations and 61.4% (232/378) patients had a sedentary time ≥ 8 h/d. The 19.0% (72/378) patients were identified as physically active/low sedentary group, 20.6% (78/378) patients were identified as physically active/high sedentary group, 19.6% (74/378) patients were in physically inactive/low sedentary group and 40.7% (154/378) patients were in physically inactive/high sedentary group. The stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that sedentary behavior, working status, kinesiophobia, objective support and disease duration had significant impacts on physical activity ( t values were -9.81-2.67, all P<0.05). The influencing factors of sedentary behavior were physical activity, objective support, support utilization, gender, educational level and kinesiophobia ( t values were -10.77-4.63, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The status of physical activity, sedentary behavior in middle-aged and elderly patients with stable coronary heart disease is not good. Medical staff should intervene corresponding influencing factors to reduce the risk of physical inactivity and high sedentary behavior in this group.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the current situation of kinesiophobia in patients after heart valve replacement surgery and to analyze its influencing factors, and to provide reference for the intervention research of patients with cardiophobia after cardiac valve replacement.Methods:Using cross-sectional survey method and convenient sampling method, 109 patients who underwent cardiac valve replacement surgery in department of cardiothoracic and vascular surgery of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region People′s Hospital from March 2021 to January 2022 were selected as the study subjects. The patients were surveyed with the general questionnaire, Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia and Visual Analogue Scale.Results:After heart valve replacement, the score of Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia was (46.90 ± 9.30) points. The score of Visual Analogue Scale was (5.83 ± 1.01) points. The score of Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia was positively correlated with the score of Visual Analogue Scale ( r=0.46, P<0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that patient′s age, cardiac function level, left ventricular ejection fraction, pain were the main influencing factors of Kinesiophobia ( t values were -2.37-4.34, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Medical staff should understand and accurately assess the status of patient′s kinesiophobia after heart valve replacement surgery, identify high-risk groups of kinesiophobia, and take targeted nursing measures to effectively alleviate postoperative pain, thereby reducing the incidence of kinesiophobia in patients, helping patients to carry out early functional exercise, and prorroting physical recovery.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effects of graded exposure in vivo treatment on kinesiophobia and resilience in patients with coronary heart disease, to provide reference for clinical nursing care.Methods:A total of 86 coronary heart disease patients from January 2018 to October 2019 in the First People′s Hospital of Jingzhou were randomly divided into experimental group and control group with 43 cases in each group according to the random number table method. The control group received routine nursing, while the experimental group implemented graded exposure in vivo treatment addition to routine nursing. The results of intervention were assessed by the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia Heart (TSK-SV Heart) and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), respectively.Results:After intervention, the scores of perceived danger, fear of injury, avoidance of exercise, dysfunctional self dimension and total socres in TSK-SV Heart were (5.45 ± 1.13), (6.55 ± 1.62), (6.92 ± 1.32), (6.42 ± 1.14), (25.34 ± 3.91) points in the experimental group, significantly lower than those in the control group (7.20 ± 1.91), (7.80 ± 2.30), (8.15 ± 1.85), (7.98 ± 1.44), (31.13 ± 4.47) points, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.60-6.07, all P<0.05). The scores of tenacity, strength, optimism dimension and total scores in CD-RISC were (19.58 ± 5.29), (19.68 ± 5.16), (12.76 ± 4.81), (52.03 ± 8.64) points in the experimental group, significantly higher than those in the control group (17.43 ± 3.95), (16.80 ± 3.61), (10.28 ± 3.98), (44.50 ± 6.24) points, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.03-4.39, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Graded exposure in vivo treatment can effectively alleviate kinesiophobia and promote resilience of patients with coronary heart disease.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the status of kinesiophobia in patients with heart failure during discharge transition period, and analyze its changing trend and influencing factors.Methods:The189 patients with heart failure treated in Henan Provincial People′s Hospital from February 2020 to April 2021 were conveniently selected as the research objects. The general situation questionnaire, the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia Heart, the Self-efficacy for Exercise Scale and the Control Attitudes Scale-Revised were used to investigate the patients 2-3 days before leaving the hospital, 1 month and 4 months after discharge.Results:The score of patients′ kinesiophobia deteriorated slightly from 2-3 days before discharge (48.62 ± 11.26) to 1 month after discharge (49.03 ± 11.24), and decreased with the extension of the transition time to 4 months after discharge (47.86 ± 11.11). The overall trend of improvement was statistically significant ( F = 17.92, P<0.01). The score of perceived disease control also showed the same change pattern, 2-3 days before discharge (27.34 ± 7.40), 1 month after discharge (26.18 ± 7.39), 4 months after discharge (27.76 ± 7.38), the difference was statistically significant ( F = 38.41, P<0.01). The score of the exercise self-efficacy of 4 months after discharge (35.63 ± 11.51) was higher than (34.00 ± 11.88) of 2-3 days before discharge and (34.20 ± 11.69) of 1 month after discharge ( F = 12.33, P<0.01). The generalized estimation equation showed that exercise self-efficacy ( B = -0.255, P<0.01) and perceived disease control ( B = -0.439, P<0.01) were protective factors of kinesiophobia in patients with heart failure. Path analysis showed that perceived disease control could not only directly predict patients′ kinesiophobia ( β = -0.461, P<0.01), but also indirectly affect patients′ kinesiophobia by acting on exercise self-efficacy (mediating effect = -0.21, 95% CI -0.293 - -0.136). The mediating effect accounted for 31% of the total effect. Conclusions:The kinesiophobia, perceived disease control and exercise self-efficacy in patients with heart failure during discharge transition were dynamic. Perceived disease control could not only directly predict patients′ kinesiophobia, but also indirectly affect it by acting on exercise self-efficacy. Nursing staff can develop nursing interventions based on perceived disease control or exercise self-efficacy to reducethe level of kinesiophobia inheart failure patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the the effects of Incontro, Alleanza, Responsabilita, Autonomia (IARA) intervention on kinesiophobia and hip function in patients undergoing total hip replacement.Methods:Totally 136 paitents undergoing total hip replacement in our hospital from Mar 2019 to Mar 2020 were selected and assigned into 2 groups randomly (68 cases each group) according to the random number table. The control group received nursing care according to the routine nursing path of total hip arthroplasty, the observation group was given IARA intervention on the basis of routine nursing. Score of Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia and Harris Hip Score between the 2 groups were compared before and after intervention.Results:The scores of terror in observation group were 52.12±8.32, 43.77±6.05, 39.55±6.29, 33.64±5.92 at before operation, 1d, 7d, and 1 month after operation; those in control group were 53.54±7.29, 52.56±5.82, 46.25 ±7.33, 44.73±6.37, respectively; which in observation group decreased more significantly with time ( Finter group and Finter time values were 31.041, 15.094, P<0.001); the hip function score in observation group at 15 days before operation, 7 d, 1 month after operation were 47.57±5.24, 57.04±6.74, 85.58±7.22 respectively, those in control group were 48.23±6.38, 53.51±7.24, 73.32±7.93; which in observation group increased more significantly with time ( Finter group and Finter time values were 30.008, 13.034, 15.094, P<0.001). Conclusion:IARA intervention can reduce the severity of kinesiophobia in patients undergoing total hip replacement, and improve their hip function after surgery.
ABSTRACT
Background: Kinesiophobia has been reported as one of the most common factors that hinder the exercise based cardiac rehabilitation. According to the evidences in the literature and clinical observations, chest binder is prescribed post median sternotomy to reduce the postoperative complaints and complications. Till date no sufficient evidence has been reported regarding effectiveness of chest binder on kinesiophobia in CABG patients post median sternotomy. Purpose: To assess the effect of chest binder on the level of kinesiophobia; in CABG patients over a period of one month. Participants: Total 70 (50 – males; 20 – females) post CABG via median sternotomy, hemodynamically stable patients, aged between 40 – 70 years, with Tampa Scale for kinesiophobia – short version (TSK – SV) Heart scores > 37 were included. Methods: On the 4th post operative day, patients were assessed for level of kinesiophobia using TSK – SV Heart. The patients were divided in to two groups depending on the prescription of chest binder by their surgeons as Group A (with binder), Group B (without binder). One month post CABG, the patients in both the groups were asked to fill the TSK – SV Heart, via telephonic conversation. Analysis: Comparison of TSK – SV Heart score at baseline and after one month within Group A and Group B was done using Wilcoxon signed rank test with continuity correction. Comparison of difference of TSK – SV Heart score at baseline and after one month between Group A and Group B was done using Mann – Whitney test. The p value < 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. Results: The mean of TSK –SV Heart score on 4th day post CABG in group A and group B was 43.42 (±7.717) and 43.45 (±4.64) respectively. The mean of TSK –SV Heart score on one month post CABG in group A and group B was 35.82 (±8.372) and 39.51 (± 6.03) respectively. A significant reduction in kinesiophobia was observed in group A and group B, p-value 0.00001188 and 0.00007886 respectively. The 95% Confidence Interval (CI) median estimate of group A and group B was 7.9 (5.0 – 10.5) and 4.5 (3.0 – 6.0) respectively. The mean of difference of TSK – SV Heart score in group A and group B was 7.6 (±8.24) and 3.94 (±4.82) respectively. The reduction in kinesiophobia in group A was significantly more than in group B, p-value = 0.00792. The 95% Confidence Interval (CI) median estimate of the mean of difference of TSK – SV Heart score in group A and group B was 3.7 (2.48 – 4.92) Conclusion: There was significant reduction in kinesiophobia irrespective of the use of chest binder post CABG via median sternotomy over a period of one month. There was marked reduction in kinesiophobia in patients who were using chest binder. Implications: Use of chest binder is recommended in patients who have kinesiophobia to encourage their participation in exercise based cardiac rehabilitation.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: Analyze return to sports and related factors after primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. METHODS: Observational descriptive study. 173 patients operated by the same surgeon and standardized technique (patellar autograft) who answered a questionnaire at least 12 months post procedure were included. Questionnaire included Subjective IKDC, Tegner activity level (Pre and Postoperative) and questions elaborated by the group. RESULTS: Mean age was 30.8 years, 85% were men, 73% practiced soccer and median postoperative IKDC was 71. Follow up until questionnaire response was 28 months. Males had a better return to sports than females (70% vs 48%, p » 0.037). Tegner preinjury level was 5 vs 4.3 postoperative, (p < 0.001). Return to sports was 67% according to Tegner scale and 66% by self-assessment. Return to similar previous activity level was 57% by Tegner scale but 24% by direct questions. Of those patients, 51% have fear of reinjury and 26% by reasons other than knee or surgery. We didn't find association between meniscal injuries and return to sports rate. Patients with chondral injuries had lower rates in return to sports (35% vs 60%, p » 0.002). Subjects that returned to sports had higher IKDC scores (73.5 vs 64.3, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: We found 67% return to sports and 57% to the preinjury level. Positive return to sports factors were male sex, absence of chondral injury and better functional outcome. Psychological factors such as fear of injury is frequent in patients who don't achieve previous levels of activity.
OBJETIVOS: Analizar el retorno deportivo y factores asociados tras la reconstrucción primaria de ligamento cruzado anterior (LCA). MÉTODOS: Estudio observacional descriptivo. Se incluyeron 173 operados entre 2014 y 2017 por el mismo cirujano, los cuales contestaron un cuestionario al menos 12 meses después de la cirugía. El cuestionario incluye IKDC subjetivo, Tegner activity level (pre y post operatorio) y preguntas de elaboración propia. RESULTADOS: La edad promedio es 30,8 años, el 85% son hombres, el 73% practicaba fútbol y la mediana del IKDC fue 71. La media de meses hasta responder el cuestionario fue de 28 meses. Tegner pre-lesión promedio fue de 5 vs 4,3 postoperatorio, p < 0,001. Según la escala Tegner el 57% retorna al mismo nivel previo, sin embargo, de acuerdo con el cuestionario propio solo el 24% lo haría. De ese subgrupo, el 51% tiene temor a lesionarse de nuevo y el 26% reporta razones no relacionadas a la rodilla. No encontramos asociación entre lesiones meniscales y la tasa de retorno. Aquellos que retornan tienen menor prevalencia de lesiones condrales (35% vs 60%, p » 0,002). Los pacientes que retornaron tuvieron un IKDC superior (73,5 vs 64,3, p < 0,001). El sexo masculino tiene una tasa de retorno de 70% vs 48% de su contraparte femenina (p » 0,037). CONCLUSIONES: El 67% retorna al deporte y el 57% lo hace al mismo nivel. Factores positivos relacionados al retorno fueron sexo masculino, ausencia de lesión condral y mejor resultado funcional. Factores psicológicos con el miedo a lesionarse de nuevo son frecuentes en pacientes que no recuperan el nivel previo.

Objective To evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese Version of the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK-11) in patients receiving total knee arthroplasty. Methods The Chinese ver-sion of TSK-11 was translated from the original one,and adjusted for cultural adaptation. The reliability and validity of Chinese TSK-11 were tested among 254 eligible patients receiving total knee arthroplasty from a tertiary hospital in Henan province by convenience sampling. Results Three common factors which ex-plained 65. 177% of the total variance was extracted after the exploratory factor analysis,and each item had high factor loading quantity (>0. 4). The scale CVI was 0. 83~1. 00,the S-CVI/UA and S-CVI/Ave were 0. 91 and 0. 94,respectively. The Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0. 883,and the test-retest reliabil-ity was 0. 798. The item-to-total correlations ranged from 0. 424~0. 757 (P<0. 05). Conclusion The Chi-nese version of TSK-11 has been proved to be reliable and valid with fewer understandable items,and short completion time. It can be used as a valuable tool for evaluating kinesiophobia in patients following total knee arthroplasty.
ABSTRACT
Objective Currently, there are few articles about kinesiophobia in patients with total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in China.This study aims to investigate the incidence of kinesiophobia and its influencing factors in TKA patient, and provide evidence for the intervention of kinesiophobia.Methods A total of 298 TKA patients from our hospital were investigated by general information questionnaire, Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK), Knee Self-Efficacy Scales, Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire and Social Support Rating Scale.Single-factor analysis and logistic regression analysis were conducted to explore influencing factors.Results The score of TSK was 38.50±13.52, and 31.88% of TKA patients reported kinesiophobia.Logistic regression analysis showed that duration of pain (OR=5.546, 95%CI: 2.143-14.353), education level (OR=0.145, 95%CI: 0.067-0.314), self efficacy(OR=0.606, 95%CI: 0.470-0.780), positive response (OR=0.784, 95%CI: 0.683-0.900), objective support (OR=0.807, 95%CI: 0.691-0.943) and utilization of social support (OR=0.507, 95%CI: 0.461-0.705) were factors influencing kinesiophobia in TKA patients.Conclusion Attention should be paid to the kinesiophobia in TKA patients, especially those influencing factors including duration of pain, education level, and objective support.Health care providers should encourage early stage rehabilitation exercise to improve the postoperative knee function of TKA patients.
ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Fear of movement and re/injury (kinesiophobia) is factor associated to chronic pain and incapacity. Since elderly population is highly affected by chronic health problems followed by pain, especially musculoskeletal problems, it is important to understand the impact of pain-related fear on elderly females' health. This study aimed at determining the incidence of kinesiophobia in elderly females assisted in a geriatrics and gerontology ambulatory, as well as at investigating possible correlations with physical performance and other health and socio-demographic variables. METHODS: This is a crossover exploratory study with nonprobabilistic convenience sample of 30 elderly females, carried out with interviews, physical tests and medical charts review. Patients were evaluated for the presence of kinesiophobia, physical performance and other variables related to chronic musculoskeletal pain, in addition to socio-demographic information. RESULTS: There has been kinesiophobia in 80% of the sample. There has been significant moderate correlation between physical performance and kinesiophobia (r=541; p=0.002). No other correlations were found. CONCLUSION: Data have shown high incidence of kinesiophobia among evaluated elderly females, in addition to physical performance impairment associated to it.
RESUMO JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: O medo de movimento e reincidência de lesão (cinesiofobia) é um fator associado à dor crônica e incapacidade. Visto que a população idosa é altamente atingida por problemas crônicos de saúde acompanhados por dor, especialmente musculoesqueléticos, faz-se relevante a compreensão dos impactos do medo relacionado à dor sobre a saúde das idosas. O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar a ocorrência de cinesiofobia em idosas atendidas em um ambulatório geriátrico e gerontológico, bem como investigar possíveis correlações com desempenho físico e outras variáveis de saúde e sócio-demográficas. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal exploratório com amostra por conveniência não probabilística de 30 idosas, realizado por meio de entrevista, teste físico e revisão de prontuário. Foram avaliadas quanto à presença de cinesiofobia, ao desempenho físico e a outras variáveis relacionadas à saúde e à dor crônica musculoesquelética, além de informações sócio-demográficas. RESULTADOS: A amostra estudada revelou ocorrência de cinesiofobia de 80%. Houve correlação significativa moderada entre desempenho físico e cinesiofobia (r=541; p=0,002). Não foram encontradas demais correlações. CONCLUSÃO: Os dados revelam alta ocorrência de cinesiofobia nas idosas avaliadas e comprometimento do desempenho físico associado à mesma.
ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of anxiety, depression and kinesiophobia and their association with the symptoms of low back pain. Methods: A total of 65 patients were divided into three groups: Organic, Amplified Organic and Non-Organic. They answered the Beck Anxiety Inventory, Beck Depression Inventory and Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia and were evaluated according to their pain level using the Visual Analogic Scale. Results: The average kinesiophobia scores of the patients in the Organic, Amplified Organic and Non-Organic groups were 36.26, 36.21 and 23.06 points, respectively. Patients who were classified into the Organic group experienced the most kinesiophobia out of all three groups (p = 0.007). The average anxiety scores of the patients in the Organic, Amplified Organic and Non-Organic groups were 33.17, 32.79 and 32.81 points, respectively, with no significant difference among the groups (p = 0.99). The average depression scores of the patients in the Organic, Amplified Organic and Non-Organic groups were 32.54, 28.79 and 37.69 points, respectively, with no significant difference among the groups (p = 0.29). Conclusion: There was no association between the groups and anxiety and depression. However, there was a positive correlation between kinesiophobia and the Organic group. Studies of other patient samples are needed to confirm the reproducibility and validity of these data in other populations.
RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar a prevalência de ansiedade, depressão e cinesiofobia e sua associação com os sintomas da lombalgia. Métodos: Foram divididos 65 pacientes em três grupos: orgânicos, orgânicos amplificados e não orgânicos. Eles responderam ao Inventário de Ansiedade de Beck, Inventário de Depressão de Beck e Escala de Cinesiofobia de Tampa e foram avaliados de acordo com seu nível de dor pela Escala Análogo-Numérica. Resultados: Os escores médios de cinesiofobia dos pacientes dos grupos orgânicos, orgânicos amplificados e não orgânicos foram de 36,26, 36,21 e 23,06 pontos, respectivamente. Os pacientes que foram classificados no grupo orgânicos experimentaram maior cinesiofobia dentre os três grupos (p = 0,007). Os escores médios de ansiedade dos pacientes dos grupos orgânicos, orgânicos amplificados e não orgânicos eram de 33,17, 32,79 e 32,81 pontos, respectivamente, não houve diferença significativa entre os grupos (p = 0,99). Os escores médios de depressão dos pacientes dos grupos orgânicos, orgânicos amplificados e não orgânicos foram de 32,54, 28,79 e 37,69 pontos, respectivamente, não houve diferença significativa entre os grupos (p = 0,29). Conclusão: Não houve associação entre os grupos e a ansiedade e a depressão. No entanto, houve uma correlação positiva entre a cinesiofobia e o grupo orgânicos. São necessários estudos com outras amostras de pacientes para confirmar a reprodutibilidade e a validade desses dados em outras populações.
