Jan Siebenga,M. J. M. Segers,Matthijs J. Elzinga,Fred C. Bakker,H. J. T. M. Haarman,Peter Patka +5 more
TL;DR: Not only are short-term effects of spine fractures caused by horse riding substantial, but these injuries can also lead to long-term disabilities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Matthijs Elzinga,M. J. M. Segers,Jan Siebenga,Emile Heilbron,E. S. M. de Lange-de Klerk,F. C. Bakker +5 more
TL;DR: It can be concluded that the inter- and intraobserver reliability of the Load Sharing Classification of Spinal fractures can be rated as fair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jan Siebenga,M. J. M. Segers,Vincent J. M. Leferink,Matthijs J. Elzinga,Fred C. Bakker,Henk-Jan ten Duis,Pol Maria Rommens,Peter Patka +7 more
TL;DR: In the treatment of traumatic thoracolumbar spine fractures, the indirect costs exceed the direct costs by far and make up 95.4% of the total costs for treatment in nonsurgically treated patients and 71.6% in the operative group.
Journal ArticleDOI
A prospective cohort study comparing the VAS spine score and Roland-Morris disability questionnaire in patients with a type A traumatic thoracolumbar spinal fracture
Jan Siebenga,Vincent J. M. Leferink,M. J. M. Segers,Matthijs J. Elzinga,Fred C. Bakker,Duis H. J. Ten,Pol Maria Rommens,Peter Patka +7 more
TL;DR: RMDQ-24 and VAS Spine have a strong positive correlation in measuring disability in a group of patients with back pain because of a spinal fracture, in both non-operatively and operatively treated groups this correlation is significant.
