Filter by:In anterior cervical disc surgery, head and neck extansion position and, surgical retraction used while reaching the anterior surface of the cervical vertebra can be affect the carotid blood flow and constituting a risk for cerebral ischaemia. In this study, we planned to investigate the relationship between head position and retraction, cerebral oxygenation and postoperative cognitive functions in patients undergoing anterior cervical disc surgery.
This investigation aims to investigate the effectiveness of Pulse Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) on neck pain, cervical range of motion, pressure pain threshold and quality of life in patients with nonspecific chronic neck pain compared to cervical therapeutic exercises.
Prostheses use subsequently became prevalent and a number of studies were conducted. However, prosthesis-associated heterotropic ossification (HO) in the segments with prostheses was reported in 2005, which disrupted mobility and caused fusion. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes, HO incidence, and prosthesis mobility in the patients following the operative use of Alpha-D disc prosthesis as developed and used by the authors to treat cervical disk diseases.
This investigation aims to investigate the effect of high intensity laser therapy on radicular symptoms, neuropathic pain, cervical range of motion and quality of life in patients with cervical radiculopathy compared to cervical therapeutic exercises.
The aim of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of myofascial release technique on pain, range of motion, muscle strength, functionality and quality of life in individuals diagnosed with cervical radiculopathy with unilateral arm involvement and compare this with exercise. The individuals included in the study will be randomized into two groups, 17 control and 17 study groups. Sessions will be 3 days a week for 4 weeks. Conventional physiotherapy and exercise program will be applied to the control group, conventional physiotherapy and myofascial release technique will be applied in the intervention group. Conventional physiotherapy methods; It will include Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS), Ultrasound (US), hotpack agents. Exercise program; extension, right and left lateral flexion, right and left rotation exercises, chin-tuck, right and left upper trapezius muscle group stretching, neck extensor muscle group isometric strengthening exercises. Myofascial release will be applied to the fingers, wrist flexor-extensor muscle groups, elbow flexor-extensor muscle groups, pectoral muscles and rotator cuff muscle groups. Patients will be evaluated before and after treatment with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Goniometric measurements, algometer, myometer, Neck Disability Scale, "Disability of Arm, Shoulder and Hand" Questionnaire (DASH).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate clinical and patient-reported outcomes at 10 years following surgery for a cohort of Mobi-C subjects treated on the IDE/Post Approval studies
This is a single-center, prospective controlled simulation study designed comparing and evaluating the driving performance of subjects who have had cervical spine surgery and the use of a validated driving simulator. To date, there haven't been evidence-based recommendations to determine a patient's "fitness to drive" in the peri-operative or postoperative state. The objective of this study is to delineate the effect cervical spine procedures have on driving performance in the peri-operative time period. The study will take place at New York University Langone Medical Center - Hospital for Joint Diseases which will include the surgeries. The follow up visits will be at the NYU Center for Musculoskeletal Care.
There are largely 2 surgical methods for one-level cervical disc disease; cage only and plate/graft. Even there are many reports about the efficacy of either cage only or plate/graft, prospective comparative study is few. The object of the present study is to present design of prospective study and to demonstrate preliminary result.
