Περίληψη – Summary

Backgrounds: Several methods have been used up to now in order to evaluate neck pain. The first aim of this study is to estimate the prevalence of non-specific neck pain and its association with specific agents. The second aim is to evaluate the usefulness of NDI (Neck Disability Index) and HADS (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale) questionnaires as means of evaluation examining the psychological and disability status in people with non-specific neck pain respectively. This study is a part of a PhD study in which 440 people, 20-60 years old, were assessed. The sample was people who visited all the Public Centers in the County of Thessaloniki for any reason and were randomly chosen. This sample was separated in two groups according to the frequency of people’s neck pain. Those who suffered frequently or almost every day from non-specific neck pain were the ‘neck pain group’ and those who referred non-specific neck pain occasionally, rarely or never felt neck pain were the ‘no pain group’. People filled a questionnaire answering questions about their demographic features and their habits. This questionnaire included HADS which evaluated the relation of stress and anxiety with neck pain and NDI questionnaire which evaluated the disability in everyday life activities because of neck pain. According to the results the prevalence of non-specific neck pain was 0.386. There were not found any statistically significant differences between the two groups concerning educational level (p=0.274), type of work (p=0.369), alcohol consumption (p=0.748), computer use (p=0.07) and depression (p=0.086).The factors related to neck pain were sex (p<0.001), age (p=0.007), marital status (p=0.042), smocking (p=0.034), physical exercise (p=0.01) and stress (p<0.001). The majority of people in the sample seemed to suffer from mild (56.7%) and moderate disability (23.2%) caused by neck pain. In conclusion stress, female sex, age above 40, marriage, smoking and lack of exercise were associated with neck pain.  As stress seems to be associated with neck pain and disability is a frequent problem in people with neck pain. HADS and NDI questionnaires could be used in Primary Health Care as useful and reliable tools in order to detect stress or disability. However, in future studies it might be useful to specify the features of the sample and design studies to focus on specific characteristics of pain.
