Abstract

Purpose: to identify the relationship between the severity of neurological disorders and life quality in patients with vertebrogenic pain syndromes (VPS) of the lumbosacral level (LSL).

Materials and Methods.. Thirty patients with VPS LSL were studied. The first group included 15 patients with reflex vertebrogenic pain syndromes (RVPS). The second group consisted of 15 patients with discogenic radicular syndromes (DRS). General clinical and vertebrological neurological studies, manual and muscular testing, as well as clinical scales and quality of life questionnaires were used.

Results. The following scales and questionnaires rates were worse in patients with DRS LSL than in patients with RVPS of this level: PainDETECT – 55 (50; 68) and 45 (42; 52), respectively, p < 0,001; 5-point scale of vertebral and neurological deficit (5-PSVND) – 8 (8; 10) and 5 (4; 7), respectively, p < 0.001; IMS – 10 (9; 13) and 8 (6; 8), respectively, p < 0,013; pain intensity scale by I. P. Antonov – 3 (2; 3) and 2 (2; 3), respectively, p < 0,029; Osvestri 2.1 – 15 (14; 17) and 10 (9; 14), respectively, p < 0.002; VAS – 5 (5; 7) against 3 (3; 5), respectively, p < 0,008; HADS (anxiety domain) – 8 (6; 10) and 5 (4; 7), respectively, HADS (depression domain) – 6 (4; 8) and 3 (2; 4), respectively, p < 0,045.

There was a strong positive correlation between the Oswestry scale 2.1 rates and VAS (r = 0.709, p <0.003) were observed, as well as the medium positive correlation between the indicators on the Oswestry scale and IMS (r = 0.629, p < 0.012).

Conclusions. Neurological disorders and life quality indicators were worse in patients with DRS LSL than in patients with RVPS LSL. There was stronger correlation between clinical data and life quality rates in patients with DRS LSL than in patients with RVPS LSL.
