Introduction: Non-specific mechanical neck pain (NMNP) may cause decrease of work quality, sleep disturbance, disability in adults. There is still a need for studies in the literature on sleep quality, body awareness and neck disability in adults with nonspecific mechanical neck pain.
Aim: The study aimed to compare sleep quality, body awareness, and neck disability in adults with and without NMNP. Adults with non-specific mechanical neck pain (n=89) and age-matched asymptomatic controls (n=90) were included in this cross-sectional study. Body awareness, sleep quality, and neck disability were assessed using online questionnaires. Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, body awareness was assessed using the Body Awareness Questionnaire, and neck disability was evaluated with the Neck Bournemouth Questionnaire.
Results: Overall, 179 adults (mean age: 24.14±22.42 years) were divided into two groups of those with and without nonspecific mechanic neck pain. Females comprised 70.2% (n=125) of the sample. Sleep quality was better and neck disability was lower in participants without NMNP (p<0.05).
Conclusion: NMNP affects sleep quality and neck disability but not body awareness in adults. Adults can be oriented to postural exercise programs and rehabilitation for better sleep quality and improving neck disability.

Spesifik Olmayan Mekanik Boyun Ağrısı Olan Yetişkinler ve Sağlıklılarda Uyku Kalitesi, Vücut Farkındalık ve Boyun Özrünün Farkları: Kesitsel Bir Çalışma

Öz

Giriş: Spesifik olmayan mekanik boyun ağrısı, yetişkinlerde iş kalitesinde azalma, uyku bozukluğu, özre neden olabilir. Spesifik olmayan mekanik boyun ağrısı olan erişkinlerde uyku kalitesi, beden farkındalığı ve boyun özürlülüğü ile ilgili literatürde halen çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
Amaç: Bu çalışmada, spesifik olmayan mekanik boyun ağrısı ve boyun ağrısı olmayan yetişkinlerde uyku kalitesi, vücut farkındalığı ve boyun özrünü karşılaştırmayı amaçlandı.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Spesifik olmayan mekanik boyun ağrısı olan yetişkinler (n=89) ve aynı yaştaki asemptomatik kontroller (n=90) bu kesitsel çalışmaya dahil edildi. Vücut farkındalığı, uyku kalitesi ve boyun özür durumu çevrimiçi anketler kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Uyku kalitesi Pittsburgh Uyku Kalitesi İndeksi ile, beden farkındalığı Beden Farkındalığı Anketi ile ve boyun özrü Boyun Bournemouth Anketi ile değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Genel olarak, 179 yetişkin (ortalama yaş: 24.14±22.42 yıl) spesifik boyun ağrısı olanlar ve olmayanlar olarak iki gruba ayrıldı. Örneklemin %70.2'sini (n=125) kadınlar oluşturmuştur. Kontrollerde spesifik olmayan mekanik boyun ağrısı olanlara kıyasla uyku kalitesi daha iyi ve boyun özürlülüğü daha düşüktü (p<0.05).
Sonuç ve Öneriler: Spesifik olmayan mekanik boyun ağrısı olan yetişkinlerde uyku kalitesini ve boyun özrünü etkilediği ancak vücut farkındalığını etkilemediği görülmüştür. Yetişkinler, daha iyi uyku kalitesi ve boyun özrünü iyileştirmek için postural egzersiz programlarına ve rehabilitasyona yönlendirilebilir.
