Comparative analysis and correlation of neck proprioception and function among car and motorcycle drivers: A cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Neck proprioception and function are essential for individuals engaged in car and motorcycle driving. The comparison and correlation between these factors can vary significantly between car and motorcycle drivers, impacting their driving safety and comfort. The objective of this study was to investigate and compare the correlation between neck proprioception and neck function in individuals who frequently drive cars and motorcycles.

Methods

A cohort of 600 regular drivers (300 car and 300 motorcycle drivers) was recruited. Neck proprioception was measured using the Cervical Joint Position Error (CJPE) test, assessing right and left cervical rotation. Neck function was assessed using the Neck Disability Index (NDI).
