Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A randomized controlled trial (RCT) to investigate the effect of a information video, consisting of a multiprofessional team, on patients with acute Whiplash Associated Disorder (WAD).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients seeking medical care at Södersjukhuset Hospital, Sweden, after a motor vehicle accident resulting in neck trauma are offered to be included in the study. Inclusion criterias involve spine fractures, need for in house care, \<18\<65 years of age and low knowledge of the Swedish language.

A randomization is performed with two arms, one being "treatment as usual" i.e. an information folder with physiotherapeutic exercises, the other one being the Information Video.

The patients are contacted per telephone and a questionnaire with baseline data is sent via e-mail within a week after the accident. They also receive a link to the websites with the information.

The follow up time is 6 months and after that the patients receive a new questionnaire with questions regarding neck-specific status (WDQ), health related quality of life (SF-12) and pain.

The primary outcome is level of pain (NRS)
