Research progress on postoperative kinesiophobia in patients with lumbar degenerative diseases
Lumbar degenerative diseases are common and frequently-occurring diseases in spinal surgery.The main clinical manifestations include pain,numbness or intermittent broken behavior of back and leg.Surgery is a quick and effective treatment for lumbar and leg pain. Early postoperative functional exercise is of great significance for rehabilitation.However,patients suffer from long-term intense pain,resulting in a fear of early postoperative functional exercise and secondary damage to the waist,that is,kinesiophobia.Kinesiophobia is an increased sensitivity of the body to pain caused by painful damage or stimulation,leading to excessive irrational fear of movement.It can cause postoperative organ dysfunction or even disuse syndrome in patients,seriously affecting the rehabilitation process and increasing the medical economic burden.This review overviewed the concept,current situation,influencing factors,adverse effects,and intervention measures of postoperative kinesiophobia in patients with lumbar degenerative diseases,thus providing a theoretical basis for medical staff to explore the mechanism of kinesiophobia,develop individualized intervention measures,enhance correct understanding of kinesiophobia and participation in rehabilitation exercise and improve the quality of life.
