Filter by:COMPARATIVE EFFECTS OF MYOFASCIAL RELEASE THERAPY AND POST ISOMETRIC RELAXATION TECHNIQUE ON PAIN AND FUNCTIONAL DISABILITY IN PATIENTS WITH TENSION-TYPE HEADACHE
The most frequent kind of primary headache is tension headache, often known as stress headache or tension-type headache (TTH). The pain usually affects both sides of the head and might extend from the lower back of the head, the neck, the eyes, or other muscle groups in the body. Nearly 90 percent of all headaches are tension-type headaches causing a debilitating effect on job productibility and overall quality of life. The aim of the study will be to compare the effects of spinal mobilizations comprising Mulligan's headache SNAGs and Maitland's PA glide with the myofascial release technique on pain and disability in patients with tension-type headache.
This study is a double blind, randomized controlled trail. condition/disease: acute tension headache treatment/intervention: Pharmacopuncture
Headaches are the main health problem as one of the prevalent type of all symptoms in the world population. Among different types of headaches, the most prevailing primary headache in general population is Tension-type headache (TTH). According to Global Burden Disease study conducted in 2016 tension-type headache ranks the third highest primary headache syndromes among 32 diseases and injuries in 195 countries from the Period of 1990 to 2016.These types of headaches are associated with significant reductions in productivity of an individual with prominent increase in socioeconomic costs. There are various treatments suggested for improving the symptoms in trigger point related tension type headaches such as usage of hot packs, cryotherapy, ultrasound therapy, mobilization and manipulation techniques, Dry needling, MET and ICT. None of the study has been conducted in Pakistan which has compared two specific techniques to resolve trigger points with the accuracy of diagnosis by diagnostic ultrasound in limited time period, which is cost friendly, and provides quick relief to patients without causing a lot of pain. Therefore, more studies are needed to overcome the gap area in the use of specific techniques in clinics with accurate diagnosis by the clinicians of Pakistan.
The aim of this study was to determine the effects of soft tissue mobilization and trigger point release verses stretching in tension-type headache among university students. Two randomized groups of participants with tension type headache will be treated with combination therapy of soft tissue mobilization and trigger point release therapy after the application of hot-pack in experimental group while control group received stretching of cervical muscles after hot-pack application .Both, male and female patients meeting the inclusion criteria will be included. Patients having malignancy and cervical tumor will be excluded.
The purpose of the study is to improve treatment for newly referred patients with migraine and tension-type headache to the Danish Headache Center. All patients will recieve an electronic questionnaire just before the first visit concerning their current and previous history of headache and headache treatment. Half of them will enter a special telephone-intervention (TeII) program with two planned phone-calls after 8 and 16 weeks from first visit. The other half of patients will follow the normal follow-up program. All patients will be seen by a headache specialist after 6 months and will be asked to fill in a follow-up electronic questionnaire.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of manual acupuncture between 2 types of points in decreasing tension-type headache symptoms of healthcare workers in Dr.Cipto Mangunkusumo hospital
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has already rapidly spread around the world as a pandemic after its first report in Wuhan, China on December 12th 2019 ( Holshue ML et al .,2019 ). As of December 27th 2020, there were more than 79.2 million confirmed cases and more than 1.7 million deaths caused by COVID-19 worldwide (WHO,2020). Migraine& tension headacheare considered one of the most disabling chronic neurological diseases, and patients with migraine or tension headache are particularly vulnerable to drastic negative impacts of the pandemic. From heightened levels of psychosocial stress, social isolation , disruption of sleep and dietary habits ,to several COVID-19-specific concerns. Normally, people with epilepsy (PWE)patients are very sensitive to different factors such as physical or emotional disturbances or environmental and lifestyle changes.Many factors can increase the risk of seizures,i.e., illness and fever, stressful events, sleep deprivation,changes in antiepileptic drugs (AED),use of proconvulsive treatments,to name a few.Some are unavoidable during a sociosanitary crisis like that currently being experienced. Because of the rapid increase of infections, Government enacted a national state of emergency, limiting public mobility and compelling home confinement and social isolation. This national lockdown, in addition to the direct effects of COVID-19, have dramatically altered the lifestyle and normal routines of the entire population.Therefore, in addition to the risk of neurological involvement that COVID-19 itself has, during the pandemic,different circumstances may negatively impact on seizure control in PWE.
General purpose: It was investigate the effect of IASTM and phonophoresis on Tension Type headache. Specific Purpose: 1. It was investigate the effect of IASTM on headache frequency, PPT, pain intensity, and functional disability on trigger points of tension type headache. 2. It was investigate the effect of Lidocaine phonophoresis on headache frequency, PPT, pain intensity and functional disability on trigger points of tension type headache. 3. It was investigate the effect of IASTM and Lidocaine phonophoresis on headache frequency, PPT, pain intensity, and functional disability on trigger points of tension type headache.
Headache is the most common neurological complaint accounting for % 1 to % 4 in the emergency department (ED).Every year, nearly one million people with headache attacks have been consulted by healthcare professionals at the emergency room in the United States.The International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD) divided headaches into two main groups: primary headaches and secondary headaches. The vast majority of cases who presented with acute headache attack in ED had a diagnosis of primary headache disorders (tension- type headache, migraine, cluster- type headache, and other primary headaches). However, secondary headache is often associated with underlying intracranial pathologies, and noted in % 10 of cases in emergency rooms. Despite the frequent presence of primary headaches, limited time setting and busy periods of medical assessment, leading diagnostic and therapeutic options due to the pathophysiological factors to be overlooked. To date, no study in the emergency care setting has explored the role of inflammation in patients with acute migraine and TTH. Investigators aimed to explore inflammatory markers [white blood cells (WBC), neutrophil, lymphocyte, platelet, neutrophil / lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and platelet / lymphocyte ratio (PLR)] in complete blood count (CBC) among MA, MO, and TTH participants who admitted to ED with acute headache attack and healthy volunteers.
