Fokale Dystonie bei Musikern und Sportlern - Disziplinübergreifende Erklärungsansätze, theoriebasierte Interventionen

动作诱发的局灶性肌张力障碍，如音乐家痉挛或高尔夫球手痉挛（yips），其特征在于任务特异性、大多数无痛、不自主的肌肉收缩，导致单个身体部位的不受控制的运动和异常姿势（痉挛）。在德国，约有80.000人患有局灶性肌张力障碍。受影响的专业音乐家和竞技运动员往往会出现职业残疾。尽管音乐家和高尔夫球手在训练量、情境需求和心理特征方面有惊人的共同点，但目前还没有对影响局灶性肌张力障碍的神经学、社会心理学或感觉运动因素进行跨学科研究。汉诺威音乐戏剧大学和德国科隆体育大学之间的跨学科研究合作旨在整合和扩展学科特定知识。此外，合作的重点是研究音乐和体育领域中针对局灶性肌张力障碍的学科特定治疗的转移效应。基于心理，生理和运动学为基础的诊断工具的发展，我们开发，测试和评估特定任务的干预措施。

Action induced focal dystonias such as musician’s cramp or golfer’s cramp (yips) are characterized by task specific, mostly painless, involuntary muscle contractions, resulting in uncontrolled movements and abnormal postures (cramps) of a single body part. In Germany, around 80.000 people suffer from focal dystonia. Affected professional musicians and competitive athletes often experience occupational disability. Despite the striking commonalities in amount of training, situational demands, and psychological profiles between musicians and golfers, there has been no interdisciplinary investigation of neurological, psychosocial, or sensorimotor factors influencing focal dystonias. The present transdisciplinary research cooperation between the task force (TF) from the Hannover University of Music and Drama and the German Sport University Cologne aims at integrating and extending the discipline specific knowledge. Moreover, the cooperation focuses on the investigation of the transfer effects of discipline specific treatments for focal dystonias in music and sports. Based on the development of a psychological-, physiological-, and kinematical-based diagnostic tool, we develop, test, and evaluate task-specific interventions.
