Correlation Between Sagittal Balance of the Spine and Psychopathological Profile

Terminated
Conditions
Kyphosis in Depressed or Anxious Patients
Lordosis in Patients With Manic
Registration Number
NCT02166775
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Strasbourg, France
Brief Summary

In this trial, the correlation between the psychopathological profile and sagittal balance unexplored to date spine will be studied. Indeed, a number of patients who benefited from well-conducted surgical treatment, targeted and tailored to their pathology, respond poorly to it. The investigators wonder if there are biomechanical factors or factors of psychopathological order which might influence the effectiveness of treatment. This seems logical for the entire medical community, but it has never been demonstrated in a clinical trial.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to find a global diagnostic and standardized tool , easy to use, on psychopathological factors influencing the posture of the patients lombalgia so that in this will be used to use identify upstream surgery, the patients undergoing psychiatric treatment of mood rather than surgical treatment. And thus may economise a surgical operation and its complications and the related expenses.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
sagittal balance of the spine : - kyphosis in depressed or anxious patients- lordosis in patients with manic2 hours

The primary endpoint was to compare the L1S1 lordosis measured in degrees relative to L1S1 lordosis expected, i-e the pelvic tilt +/- 10 ° and analyzed in relation to anxiety scores given by the Scale Hamilton Anxiety (HAM-A), depression with the Hamilton depression Scale (HAM-D) and hypomania using the Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS). regarding the HAM-A, greater than or equal to 17 score will be considered as indicative of anxiety. For the HAM-D greater than or equal to 13 score will be considered indicative of depression. For the YMRS, greater than or equal to 20 score will be considered as indicative of a manic syndrome. It is obvious that the higher the score, the higher the importance of the disorder will be.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
link between the psychopathological profile and questionnaires2 hours

The secondary endpoints are finding a link between the psychopathological profile of patients using self-administered questionnaires.
