Effectiveness of a Telerehabilitation Program Based on Specific Neck

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the effects of a 12-session telerehabilitation program based on Specific Neck Exercises (SNE) with Spinertial to a control group on range of motion, cervical proprioception, and posture in subjects with forward head posture, post-intervention, after one month of follow-up, and after two months of follow-up.

Clinical Trial Description

Epidemiological evidence suggests that a sedentary lifestyle is associated with various musculoskeletal conditions, including neck pain. Sedentary behavior during work hours is closely linked to the craniovertebral angle (CVA). Forward head posture, associated with increased vertebral load, predisposes individuals to early onset of degenerative changes, cervical pain, and disability, as well as decreased endurance and strength of the cervical musculature. Patients with cervical pain may exhibit various clinical manifestations, including weakness of the deep cervical musculature, reduced cervical range of motion (ROM), and cervical disability. Numerous pathologies are described to manifest with localized pain in the cervical region, as well as weakness of the deep cervical musculature and reduced craniovertebral angle (CVA). Examples include cervicogenic dizziness, cervicogenic headache, tension headache, cervical radiculopathy, cervical instability, or chronic mechanical cervicalgia. The sensorimotor control system is a crucial component of the cervical spine. The deep musculature of the cervical region contains a large number of neuromuscular spindles and mechanoreceptors, providing information about the movement of the head and enhancing dynamic stability during neck movements. The density of neuromuscular spindles in the deep musculature is particularly high, suggesting a significant role in the fine motor control of the cervical spine. Impairment of cervical posture, decreased craniovertebral angle (CVA), proprioception, and alterations in the sensorimotor control system associated with neck pain contribute to recurrence and chronicity. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
