View clinical trials related to Cervical Pain.
Filter by:Chronic cervical pain is a common disorder with a prevalence of approximately 35% in adults. Cervical radicular pain is defined as radiating pain in the upper limb caused by compression or inflammation of the nerve roots ascending from the intervertebral foramen to the spinal cord, due to disc herniation or spinal stenosis. C7 and C6 are the two most commonly affected nerve roots. Various treatment modalities are available, including oral medications, physiotherapy, and epidural steroid injections. However, chronic and persistent pain that develops as a result of some patients not responding to these treatments. Ultrasound-guided selective cervical nerve root block and pulsed radiofrequency are interventional treatments used in patients with radicular cervical pain unresponsive to conservative treatments. Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) treatment of peripheral nerves may provide long-term pain relief in patients with short-term pain relief with a local anesthetic block. Studies have shown the effectiveness of PRF therapy applied to selective cervical nerve roots in relieving cervical radicular pain.
Randomized Single-Blind Clinical Trial in which the treatment will be administered through 3 sessions of dry needling in the cervical muscles's active trigger points in patients with chronic cervical pain.
The aim of this study is to investigate cervical region biomechanics, muscle performance and respiratory muscle strength in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) compared to healthy subjects.
This study will provide better evidence that which technique is more effective in acute and subacute postural neck pain. To find out the effectiveness of Muscle energy technique (MET) and stretching exercises in acute and subacute postural neck pain.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate about the characteristics that predict response to physiotherapy treatment in patients with nerve related neck arm pain. The main question to answer is whether there is a subgroup that responds better to physiotherapy treatment. Participants will be assessed for clinical and neurophysiological characteristics prior to treatment. Afterwards they will receive 6 sessions of manual physiotherapy treatment along with home nerve gliding exercises once a week. Baseline measurements will be taken again after treatment to know if there have been any changes.
This study aims to analyze the effects of visceral osteopathic treatment of the diaphragm, stomach and liver in the treatment of chronic neck pain.
PURPOSE: The purpose of the present study is to investigate the benefit of applying dermoneuromodulation techniques in patients with non-specific chronic neck pain. BACKGROUND: Chronic neck pain is one of the most commonly reported musculoskeletal pathologies in the general population. It has an immense impact on the physical, social, and psychological aspects and quality of life of the individual and society as a whole. Dermoneuromodulation(DNM) is recently popularising touch based pain relieving approach which is a gentle, structured method of interacting with patient's nervous system to help them resolve pain, regain function, and feel better. It was developed by Diane Jacobs, a Canadian physiotherapist specialised in pain science and the treatment of painful conditions. During her 40 years of practice, Jacobs was interested in Ronald Melzack, who developed the original Gate Control theory of pain along with Patrick Wall, and who later developed the NeuroMatrix model of pain. In 2007, Jacobs made a cadaver study that defined how peripheral cutaneous nerves divide into rami, which spread outward into the underside of skin. This work inspired her to develop a new conceptual approach to manual therapy for patients with pain. HYPOTHESES We hypothesize that there will be no effect of dermoneuromodulation techniques on clinical outcomes of patients with non-specific chronic neck pain. RESEARCH QUESTION: Is there a statistically significant effect of dermoneuromodulation techniques on clinical outcomes of patients with non-specific chronic neck pain?
PURPOSE: To compare the effects of mckenzie exercises plus stabilization exercise to those of mckenzie exercises alone on disability, pain, range of motion (ROM) in patients with nonspecific chronic neck pain (NSCNP). BACKGROUND: Little is known about the efficacy of providing mckenzie exercises in addition to cervical and scapulothoracic stabilization exercises in people with NSCNP. HYPOTHESES We hypothesize that there will be no significant effect of adding stabilization exercises to mckenzie exercises than mckenzie exercises alone in patients with NSCNP. RESEARCH QUESTION: Is there a statistically significant effect of adding stabilization exercises to mckenzie exercises on outcomes of patients with NSCNP?
The aim of the study is to determine the effect of muscle energy technique versus myofascial release on cervical and lumbar pain in premenopausal women with fibromyalgia
This randomized controlled trial was performed in MMRC (Majestic medicine rehabilitation Sciences) Islamabad in February 2023 and consisted of patients having neck pain and forward head posture. 30 Patients were divided into two groups of 15 each by sealed envelope method . Treatment group was given weight bearing thrust manipulation in sitting and control was given non weight bearing thrust manipulation in supine lying. Pain was calculated through NPRS and Cervical ranges were calculated by Inclinometer before and immediately after treatment.
