[Psychological predictors of rehabilitation efficiency of patients with radiculopathy after neurosurgical correction of compression diskogenic syndrome].
Sixty four osteochondrosis patients after neurosurgical correction of the compression syndrome were examined psychologically before and after the course of rehabilitation. It was established that considerable relief of pain in the course of physiotherapy was seen in patients who, before the treatment, had less severe impairment of the psychological status, no significant symptoms of hypochondria, anxiety, depression. Psychologically unfavourable predictors of low efficiency of physiotherapy were psychic tension, excitability, low stress resistance, pessimism, high anxiety, intrapersonality conflicts.
