This book was released on 1996 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents results from the RAND study on the appropriateness of spinal manipulation and mobilization of the cervical spine. The study was designed to ascertain the clinical criteria for the appropriate use of cervical manipulation and mobilization to treat conditions such as neck pain and headache and to document treatment complications. A review was conducted of more than 500 articles from the medical and chiropractic literature. From this extensive review, a set of indications was created for manipulation and mobilization for neck pain and headaches and for subcategories of patient types. A panel was convened of back-pain experts from the disciplines of orthopedics, chiropractic, family medicine, and neurology to rate for appropriateness the indications for spinal manipulation and mobilization. The panelists rated the set of indications individually and then were convened as a group to rate the same indications following reporting and discussion of the individual ratings. This report presents the results of the final ratings and describes the methodology. It should be of interest to clinicians who perform manipulation and mobilization of the cervical spine, to clinicians who work with patients with cervical problems, and to health researchers and others concerned with the appropriate indications for performing manipulation and mobilization.

Book excerpt: An overview of the RAND appropriateness method is provided along with a summary of key results of the recent multidisciplinary expert consensus panel assessing the appropriateness of manipulation and mobilization in the cervical spine. Appropriate use of such results is discussed. The RAND appropriateness method was used which involved a synthesis of literature, creation of a clinical indications list based on the literature, and input from informed sources. An expert multidisciplinary panel of clinicians was selected and a Delphi rating round for appropriateness of cervical spine manipulation and mobilization was performed. Results were tabulated and the panel was convened for second round of appropriateness ratings. Over 1400 clinical scenarios (indications) were rated. The panel demonstrated clear agreement on 40% of the indications and clear disagreement on 2% of them. Regarding the appropriateness of cervical manipulation or mobilization for the indications 43% of the indications were rated inappropriate for the intervention with 41% ranking as uncertain and 16% considered appropriate. The level of panel disagreement was higher with manipulation compared to mobilization. The utility of the results of this appropriateness panel is discussed relative to practicing chiropractors, non-physicians, and the chiropractic profession as a whole.
