Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to compare any differences in pain intensity, pain catastrophizing, and central sensitivity syndrome in osteoporotic vertebral fractures based on different timings of getting out of bed.
Method: Patients who were hospitalized for osteoporotic vertebral fractures (71 patients) were classified into two groups: those who mobilized within 14 days of admission (the early mobilization group: 55 patients) and those who mobilized after 14 days of admission (the delayed mobilization group: 16 patients). Pain intensity, short form of pain catastrophizing scale (PCS-6), and short form of central sensitization inventory (CSI-9) scores were compared between the two groups (early and delayed mobilization) and duration (at admission and discharge).
Result: The pain intensity and PCS-6 scores were significantly worse at admission when compared with those at discharge in both groups. PCS-6 and CSI-9 scores at admission were significantly worse in the delayed mobilization group when compared with that of the early mobilization group.
Conclusion: This study suggested that delayed mobilization in patients may be associated with worsening of PCS-6 and CSI-9 scores.
