Résumé
Despite normal neurological integrity tests, some patients with non-specific neck-arm pain (NSNAP) have heightened nerve mechanosensitivity upon neurodynamic testing. The aim of this study was to determine whether or not a nerve dysfunction is present in patients with positive neurodynamic tests compared to those with negative neurodynamic tests or healthy controls. Somatosensory profiling using quantitative sensory testing (QST) was established in 40 consecutive patients with unilateral NSNAP; 23 had positive upper limb neurodynamic tests (ULNT
