Filter by: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.
Facet joints are synovial joints located on the dorsolateral side of the vertebral column. Normally, both facet joints are symmetrical. Facet tropism (FT) is defined as asymmetry between the angles of orientation of the joints, in which a facet joint in the same segment is more sagittally oriented than the other. In 1967, Farfan and Sullivan first reported that FT is a possible risk factor for the development of disk herniation. However, this is controversial as there are other views advocating that FT is not a risk factor for the development of cervical disc herniation. Further, it has been emphasized that patients with FT have a greater need for adjacent segment degeneration and new spinal surgery after spinal fusion surgeries than those without FT. In the current literature, studies have been conducted to examine the clinical and radiological parameters that may be related to the effectiveness of cervical interlaminar epidural steroid injections (ILESI). The aim of this study was to examine the effect of the presence of FT on ILESI results in patients with cervical disc herniation-induced radicular pain.
The purpose of this study was to investigate adaptation, validity, and reliability of the Turkish version of the Cervical Radiculopathy Impact Scale (CRIS).
