背景:鞭打相关头痛(WAH)是鞭打损伤后最常见的症状之一,导致高残疾。然而,WAH的临床特征尚未得到很好的描述.
目的:综合现有文献关于WAH的临床特征。
方法:范围审查。
方法:本范围审查的方案已在OpenScienceFramework中注册,并使用PRISMA扩展范围审查工具来确保方法学和报告质量。在PubMed进行了系统的搜索,EMBASE,CINAHL,WebofScience和Scopus搜索由一名作者进行,文章筛选由两名作者独立进行。
结果:最初共确定了11363篇文章,最后纳入了26项研究。头痛强度是最常见的特征。头痛持续时间,在至少4项研究中也报道了频率和位置.很少有研究报告可能与WAH的存在有关的身体损伤。仅在8项研究中进行了具有脑震荡特征的分化。
结论:WAH似乎具有轻度至中度强度,通常在枕骨区域以及其他区域中通常经历的持续时间短的发作,并且随着时间的推移强度会降低。
Whiplash-associated headache (WAH) is one of the most common symptoms after a whiplash injury, leading to high disability. Nevertheless, the clinical characteristics of WAH have not been well described.
To synthesise the existing literature on the clinical characteristics of WAH.
Scoping
review.
The protocol for this scoping
review was registered in Open Science Framework and the PRISMA extension for Scoping Reviews tool was used to ensure methodological and reporting quality. A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, Web of Science and Scopus. The search was performed by one author and the screening of articles was conducted by two authors independently.
A total of 11363 articles were initially identified and finally 26 studies were included in the
review. Headache intensity was the most commonly reported feature. Headache duration, frequency and location were also reported in at least four studies. Few studies reported physical impairments that may be related to the presence of WAH. A differentiation with concussion characteristics was only performed in eight studies.
WAH appears to be of mild to moderate intensity, typically with episodes of short duration which is commonly experienced in the occipital region amongst other regions, and with a tendency to reduce in intensity over time.
