Efectividad de la técnica de SNAGS del Concepto Mulligan en el tratamiento de esguince cervical post accidente de tráfico
Abstract
El “whiplash” o latigazo cervical es un mecanismo de aceleración y desaceleración que
transmite su energía al cuello. Es una lesión muy común en los accidentes de tráfico.
El siguiente estudio busca conocer la eficacia de aplicar la técnica SNAGS del Concepto
Mulligan al tratamiento habitual del whiplash cervical.
Se diseña un estudio: analítico, experimental, longitudinal, prospectivo y enmascarado. La
muestra de estudio son 50 sujetos femeninos con edades comprendidas entre 20 y 55 años
que acudan al Hospital La Paz de Madrid para el tratamiento del esguince cervical de grados
I o II según la QTF. Los sujetos serán divididos en dos grupos de manera aleatoria: un
primer el grupo control al que se le aplica el tratamiento habitual de fisioterapia y un segundo
grupo experimental, al que se incluye la técnica de SNAGS del Concepto Mulligan.
Se realizarán dos mediciones, pre y post tratamiento y se calculará: la variación de dolor,
rango articular y funcionalidad, medidos con la escala EVA, CROM y Neck Pain Score of
Jordan, respectivamente. Esta variable resultado se usará para comparar ambos grupos.
Existen muy pocos estudios acerca de la técnica de SNAGS del Concepto Mulligan para el
tratamiento del esguince cervical.
Cervical whiplash, is an acceleration and deceleration mechanism, which transmits energy to the neck. This is a very common injury in traffic accidents. This study aims to determine the efficacy of applying Mulligan’s SNAGS techniques for the habitual cervical whiplash treatment. It is performed an analytical, experimental, longitudinal, prospective and simple blinded studio. The studied sample is 50 females between 20 and 55 years attending to the Hospital Universitario La Paz in Madrid, for the cervical whiplash treatment grade I or II according to QFT. The sample will be divided into two groups randomly: the first one, a control group whom will receive the usual physiotherapy treatment and a second one experimental group whom will include Mulligan’s SNAGS technique. Aftereards taking pre and post treatment measurements, it will be calculated the variation of pain, range of motion and functionality which will be measured by VAS scale, CROM and Neck Pain Score of Jordan,respectively The resultant variable will be used to compare both groups. The studies about Mulligan´s SNAG technique in the treatment of post traffic accident whiplash are very limited.
