The purpose of this preliminary study was to review the results of traction therapy with a forward bend test, which is used regularly in clinical practice at the Dolenjske Toplice Spa. We also examined the effects of age and the number of therapies on the results. Method: We reviewed the medical records of the patients who had undergone traction treatment on a GammaSwing device. Results: Twenty patients with chronic low back pain were included in the study, with an average age of 50 years; 13 (65 %) were women and 7 (35 %) were men. The patients received one to six therapies, after which their forward bend improved from 1 to 22 cm (9.8 cm on average). Conclusion: Improvement at the forward bend test was observed in patients who had undergone traction therapy with vibration. Age might be an associated factor. Better-designed studies are needed to verify the effectiveness of traction treatmentIzhodišča: Za zdravljenje bolečine v križu uporabljamo različne metode, ena od njih je tudi trakcija. Namen naše preliminarne študije je bil pregledati rezultate te terapije s testom predklona, ki ga v Zdravilišču Dolenjske toplice redno uporabljamo v klinični praksi. Preverili smo tudi, če starost in število terapij vplivata na rezultate. Metode: Pregledali smo medicinsko dokumentacijo bolnikov, ki so imeli terapijo na napravi GammaSwing. Rezultati: V raziskavo smo vključili 20 pacientov (13 oz. 65 % žensk), starih v povprečju 50 let, z diagnozo kronična bolečina v križu. Pacienti so imeli od ene do šest terapij. Po terapiji se je predklon izboljšal od enega do 22 cm, v povprečju za 9,8 cm. Zaključek: Pri pacientih, ki so imeli terapijo s trakcijo skupaj z vibracijo smo ugotovili izboljšanje na testu predklona, na kar morda vpliva tudi starost. Potrebne so bolje zasnovane raziskave, s katerimi bomo preverili učinkovitost terapijeTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverzitetni rehabilitacijski inštitut RS – Soča
