Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of muscle energy technique versus Maitland's mobilization on shoulder pain and disability after neck dissection surgeries.


Clinical Trial Description

Thirty patients with shoulder pain and limited ROM post-neck dissection surgeries participated in this study. Patients were subdivided into two groups, fifteen patients in each group. Group A received the muscle energy technique and group B received Maitland's mobilization. Data obtained from both groups regarding the Visual Analogue Scale, it has a 100-mm-long horizontal line labeled ''no pain' (with or without related facial expressions) at one extreme and ''worst pain ever' at the other. Pain intensity is determined by the length of the line as measured from the left-hand side to the point marked, The Shoulder Pain and Disability Index, it has two subscales; The pain subscale includes five questions about pain intensity. The disability subscale includes eight questions about difficulty in different orders. Each question of both pain and disability subscale was scaled in numeric ratings ranging from 0 to 10. Each score was summed up and transformed into percentages. Finally, the average score between pain and disability subscale comprised the total SPADI scores ranging from 0 (the best) to 100 (the worst), and shoulder flexion, abduction, and external ROM were statistically analyzed and compared. ;
