Clinical Trial Summary

This randomized-controlled trial aims to investigate the efficacy of Graded Motor Imagery (GMI) on function, pain, and range of motion (ROM) in patients with a posttraumatic stiff elbow.


Clinical Trial Description

To investigate the efficacy of GMI on function, pain, and ROM in elbow limitation, voluntary patients with elbow limitation, aged between 20-55 years will be randomly divided into two groups: GMI group and standard rehabilitation (SR) group. Interventions will be applied for 12 sessions. The patients will be assessed before, after six-week treatment and six-week follow-up. The pain on activity, at rest and at night will be assessed with Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Pain pressure threshold of the elbow and soft tissue around the elbow will be evaluated by digital pressure algometry. ROM will be assessed with a digital goniometer. Isometric muscle strength will be measured with a handheld dynamometer of elbow flexors and extensors. Grip strength will also be assessed. Recognise™ will be used for assessing the right-left discrimination. The functional status and kinesiophobia will be evaluated by Disabilities Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) and Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia, respectively. The Global Rating of Change will be used to evaluate patient satisfaction. The Vividness of Movement Imagery Questionnaire 2 (VMIQ-2) will be used for evaluating the individuals' ability to mental imaginary. ;
