To compare the effectiveness of thoracic manipulation and MET on chronic mechanical neckache
Cervical radiculopathy was first described in 1943 by researchers named Semmes and Murphy, years later than lumbosacral radiculopathy. It is a neurological condition caused by dysfunction in the cervical spinal nerves, nerve roots, or both. This compression occurs as a result of disc herniation, spondylosis, trauma, spinal tumors, etc. As the first symptom, it manifests as pain. When pain radiates from the neck to the shoulder and arm and is accompanied by sensory complaints and motor weakness, cervical radiculopathy should be suspected. It is a significant cause of morbidity and disability in both men and women, and it occurs in middle age. As a result, clinicians must quickly diagnose and determine the best treatment method. The majority of the information in the literature on the incidence of cervical radiculopathy is based on the findings of a large population-based study conducted between 1976 and 1990 by the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. The incidence rate of cervical radiculopathy was reported to be 83.2 per 100,000 per year in this study, which included 561 cases. The primary goals of treatment are to alleviate pain, restore neurological function, and prevent a recurrence. According to the literature, cervical radiculopathy recurs at a rate of 31.7%, and 26% of them go to surgery. Treatment options vary depending on whether the symptoms are acute or chronic and their severity. In the treatment of cervical radiculopathy, either conservative (non-operative) or surgical treatments are used. In patients with chronic neck pain with or without radiculopathy, a cervical epidural steroid injection is one of the most frequently used interventional therapeutic options. Chronic neck pain or radicular pain caused by disc herniation, spinal stenosis, or discogenic pain can also be treated with cervical epidural injections. Cervical stability training is an exercise program that is used to strengthen the cervical spine, relieve pain, and improve functionality. Changes in dynamic scapula stabilization are observed in patients with chronic neck pain. The scapula connects the neck and shoulder, so it plays an important role in stabilizing the neck and shoulder complex. Because of the interaction between the neck and the scapula, scapular stability becomes more important in these patients.
The study which includes 52 participants suffering from chronic neck pain, determines additional effects of dental bite pads on neck pain and function when performing a 3-month gymnastics programme.
the objective of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of neck stabilization exercises versus neck dynamic exercises in patients having non specific neck pain with forward head posture for pain intensity, correction of forward head posture, increasing Range of movement and decrease functional disability. the study is being conducted at physiotherapy department of institute of physical medicine and rehabilitation (Dow university of health sciences) total 60 patients with non specific neck pain with forward head posture recruited by non-probability sampling technique initially screening done by consultant physicians who is blinded to the treatment given to patients. patient are included in study who fulfill inclusion criteria and sign the consent form. patients then randomly allocated to both treatment groups using computer generated randomization sheet. baseline assessment is taken at first session after providing 9 treatment of stabilizing exercises to group1 and dynamic exercises to group 2 session post assessment will be done on goniometry, NDI, VAS and plumb line at last session at third week.
It has been reported that staying in the same posture for a long time causes musculoskeletal system problems, and the use of mobile phones and other electronic devices continuously, especially in the internet age, causes postural problems in many people. Physiotherapy applications including strengthening, stretching, yoga, pain-oriented applications, and behavioral treatments are performed for an ideal posture to regulate postural problems. When the literature is examined, it has been seen that the studies carried out after the Covid 19 pandemic have developed especially in the direction of telerehabilitation, but there is a need for studies showing the effect of exercise applications developed for individuals with mechanical neck pain. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of 12-week telerehabilitation on posture, energy consumption, and performance in individuals with mechanical neck pain.
conduct machine learning models to identify different aspects that can give us an impression about the disability in patients with neck pain. By using 17 different classifier and regressor models. to identify disability from emg, pain, ROM and curve measurements
The aim of this study is to reduce pain, increase range of motion, increase the endurance of deep cervical flexors muscles, and increase quality of life with mobile application in the treatment of patients with chronic neck pain. Although many benefits of exercises have been proven, the effectiveness, follow-up and continuity of exercise will be investigated with mobile application tracking.
This study a randomized clinical trial to determine the effects of fasiatherapy versus facial manipulation on pain, range of motion and function in patients with chronic neck pain. A sample of 52 patients will be taken and divided into two groups each with 26 patients. Group A will receive DBM fasciatherapy along with conventional physical therapy while group B will receive fascial manipulation along with the conventional physical therapy protocol. The conventional physical therapy protocol will include hot pack, neck isometrics and stretches. The session will be around 45 to 60 min on each patient with three session per week on alternate days. A total of three-week treatment regime will be given to the patients and assessment of patient's pain, range of motion and function with NPRS (numeric pain rating scale), goniometry and NDI (neck disability index) will be done at the baseline, after the completion of treatment at three weeks and after 6 weeks to observe the long-term effects. The data will be analyzed using SPSS.
Hyperexcitable myofascial trigger points located within a taut band of skeletal muscle or fascia cause referred pain, local tenderness, and autonomic changes. The scientific data refer to an immediate improvement in the symptoms of these active points treated with manual therapy. Based on these factors, the objective of the study is to determine the effect of the combined therapy of the Jones, Chaitow, Lewit technique and pain-free positioning in participants with the presence of an active upper trapezius trigger point.
