在颅骨领域的骨疗法是一种方法，由手动和物理治疗师使用。然而，文献中关于这种治疗的患者经历的信息很少。本研究旨在探讨患者在颅骨领域的骨病经验。患者完成了患者感知测量-颅骨区域的骨病，并确定了他们在治疗期间经历的感觉。完成了焦虑、抑郁、生活满意度和日常活动意义的其他测量。患者感知测量-颅骨区域的骨病具有内部一致性（Cronbach α = 0.85）。在颅野患者中，最常见的骨病感觉是“放松”、“释放”和“放松”。“生活满意度和日常活动的意义与患者感知测量-颅骨领域的骨病评分呈正相关。在患者感知测量-颅骨领域的骨病和抑郁症之间观察到负相关。患者感知测量的心理测量特性-颅骨领域的骨病需要进一步测试。观察到的生活满意度和抑郁症与患者对颅野治疗中骨病的看法之间的关联需要在更大的临床手动治疗队列中进行测试。
Osteopathy in the cranial field is an approach used by manual and physical therapists. However, there is minimal information in the literature about patient experiences of this treatment. The present study was undertaken to explore patients' experiences of osteopathy in the cranial field. Patients completed the Patient Perception Measure-Osteopathy in the Cranial Field and identified sensations they experienced during treatment. Additional measures of anxiety, depression, Satisfaction With Life, and Meaningfulness of Daily Activity were completed. The Patient Perception Measure-Osteopathy in the Cranial Field was internally consistent (Cronbach's alpha = .85). The most frequently experienced sensations of osteopathy in the cranial field patients were "relaxed,'' "releasing,'' and "unwinding.'' Satisfaction With Life and Meaningfulness of Daily Activity were positively associated with Patient Perception Measure-Osteopathy in the Cranial Field scores. Negative associations were observed between the Patient Perception Measure-Osteopathy in the Cranial Field and depression. Psychometric properties of the Patient Perception Measure-Osteopathy in the Cranial Field require further testing. The observed associations of Satisfaction With Life and depression with patients' perceptions of osteopathy in the cranial field treatment needs to be tested in larger clinical manual therapy cohorts.
