RESUMEN

Introducción: Actualmente más personas se comunican usando texto a través de líneas telefónicas móviles (TC), lo que ha originado una epidemia mundial de manifestaciones musculoesqueléticas por posiciones corporales inadecuadas, sobre todo de la columna cervical. Objetivo: Describir las observaciones en 124 casos de cervicalgia originadas por el uso de TC. Material y métodos: Pacientes con cervicalgia no traumática en quienes se descartaron posibilidades etiológicas diferentes al uso de TC. Resultados: 124 pacientes con edad promedio de 25 años y DE ± de 11.5, variación de 15 a 40; predominio del género femenino, con 70% (n = 87), y las edades entre 15 y 25 años, con 75% de los casos (n = 93). El tiempo de evolución de la cervicalgia presentó un promedio de seis meses, con variación de tres a 12. El uso/horas/día de TC encontrado fue de 50% (n = 62) ≥ 4 horas, 25% (n = 31) tres horas, 15.3% (n = 19) dos horas y 9.6% (n = 12) una hora/día. Al correlacionar edad y tiempo de uso del TC, se encontró que a menor edad, mayor tiempo de uso. Conclusiones: El abuso del TC ha originado una epidemia de cervicalgia, lo que obliga al médico a incrustar en el formato de historia clínica estos datos.
