Filter by:Cervical radiculopathy is characterized by neurological dysfunction caused by compression and inflammation of the spinal nerves or nerve roots of the cervical spine. Rolotherapy is a regenerative therapeutic method that consists of injecting irritant solutions into the injured areas.
A prospective observational study investigating the effectiveness and safety of integrative Korean medicine treatment in cervical disc herniation patients with neck pain or cervical radiculopathy at 4 locations of Jaseng Hospital of Korean Medicine as assessed through of pain, functional disability, work loss and quality of life patient-reported outcomes
The primary aim of the present project is to compare the effectiveness of surgery and nonsurgical treatment in patients with cervical radiculopathy caused by either disc herniation or spondylosis. Secondary aims are to evaluate cost-effectiveness and predicting factors of success of the two treatments, and to explore the terms success rate and expectations by asking the patients to fill in their expected primary outcome score at baseline.
The purpose of the study is to examine the effects of cervical traction with or without the addition of neural mobilization, in patients with cervical radiculopathy
Cervical transforaminal epidural steroid injections (TFESI) are indicated in cervical radicular pain resistant to conservation therapy, by which steroids can be delivered into anterior epidural space surrounding target spinal nerve roots to help alleviate pain in the upper limb or neck. Cervical TFESI is traditionally commended to perform with guidance of fluoroscopy or CT. As fluoroscopy can not monitor the injection route whether it pass vessel or not, many serious neurological complications caused by inadvertent intra-arterial injection have been reported2. Here, the investigators will introduce a novel cervical TFESI guided by ultrasound, which incidence of inadvertent vessel injury or injection might be lower than those guided by fluoroscopy.
This is a prospective, concurrently controlled, multi-center study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Spinal Kinetics M6-C artificial cervical disc compared to anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) for the treatment of symptomatic cervical radiculopathy with or without cord compression. Some participating sites will enroll just M6-C patients, while others will enroll just ACDF patients. Patients eligible for study enrollment will present with degenerative cervical radiculopathy requiring surgical intervention, confirmed clinically and radiographically, at one vertebral level from C3 to C7. A total of 243 subjects will be included at up to 20 sites.
The primary objective of the study is to investigate the efficacy of device with far-infrared (FIR) irradiation in these patients with acute cervical radiculopathy.
To date, optimal strategies for the management of patients with Cervical Radiculopathy (CR) remain elusive. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of manual therapy, exercise, and cervical traction to manual therapy, exercise, and sham traction on pain, function and disability in patients with CR.
