Abstract

Background: Neck muscle stiffness is the most common finding of neck pain. The effect of physical activity on neck muscle stiffness is still showing various results. Currently, working from home as the result of COVID-19 pandemic had changed the daily physical activity of each person, including medical students. Objective: This study aims to determine the relationship between physical activity intensity along with total modes of activity and frequency of neck muscle stiffness events. Methods: This is an observational study with cross-sectional study design. Simple randomized sampling was used in this study. Data collection utilized modified EPIC-PAQ2. Data calculated and converted to MET-hour/week and units to assess physical activity intensity and total modes. Results: Physical activity intensity and total modes of activities showed no statistically significant relationship with the frequency of neck muscle stiffness in preclinical medical students in Faculty of Medicine, University of Sumatera Utara. Sex parameter showed significant relationship. Male category showed odd ratio of 0.358 (OR = 0.358, 95% CI) for developing more frequent neck muscle stiffness. Conclusion: More accurate studies have to be conducted to adjust confounding factors on the incidence of neck muscle stiffness.
体力活动强度,总模式和颈部肌肉僵硬
背景:颈部肌肉僵硬是颈部疼痛最常见的表现。体力活动对颈部肌肉僵硬的影响仍然显示出各种结果。目前,由于COVID-19大流行,在家工作改变了包括医学生在内的每个人的日常身体活动。目的:本研究旨在确定体力活动强度及总活动方式与颈部肌肉僵硬事件发生频率的关系。方法:采用横断面研究设计的观察性研究。本研究采用简单随机抽样。数据收集使用改进的EPIC-PAQ2。计算数据并转换为met小时/周和单位,以评估身体活动强度和总模式。结果:苏门答腊北方大学医学院基础医学专业学生的体力活动强度和总活动方式与颈部肌肉僵硬频率无统计学意义。性别参数呈显著相关。男性类别出现更频繁的颈部肌肉僵硬的奇比为0.358 (OR = 0.358, 95% CI)。结论:需要进行更准确的研究来调整影响颈部肌肉僵硬发生率的混杂因素。
