Active clinical trials for "Neck Pain"

The purpose of this project is to determine the effect of a multimodal non-pharmacological Pain Relief Kit on the pain, functioning, patient satisfaction, and opioid consumption of individuals suffering from an acute pain episode of chronic neck and/or low back pain over a 3-week duration.

A multi-center randomized controlled trial assessing the comparative effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of Chuna manual therapy for chronic neck pain

This study will compare the effect of dry needling on the active trigger point on sternocleidomastoid versus the effect of dry needling at 1.5 centimeters of active trigger point on sternocleidomastoid, both combined with ischemic compression, on cervical pain and cervical motor control short and medium term.

The observation of actions and motor imagery has demonstrated the activation of certain mechanisms similar to those that occur during active movement, which could induce immediate changes in the amplitudes of movement and sensorimotor variables in observed and imagined movements. The main aim of the study was test the immediate effect of a protocol of observed actions and motor imagery on cervical range of motion and pain intensity in patients with non-specific chronic neck pain (NSCNP). Randomized double-blind clinical trial in patients with DCCI at a primary health care center in the Community of Madrid. A random distribution of study subjects was made into two groups: a) cervical motion videos were presented at full range of motion and b) the videos presented showed a range of motion limited to 40%. In both groups, visualization tasks of actions were alternated with internal kinesthetic motor imagery, in periods of 1min in 2 consecutive series and with a total of 12 minutes of intervention. Cervical range of motion was assessed with a cervical goniometer and pain intensity immediately following the intervention with an Analog Visual Scale.

Impaired cervical joint position sense is associated with neck pain. This study will determine the effects of sensorimotor control training exercises on cervical joint position, pain, ROM and function in nonspecific chronic neck pain. There will be two groups ; experimental and control. Half of study group will receive cervical sensorimotor control training exercises and half of study group will receive conventional physiotherapy protocol.

Myofascial pain syndrome thought to be the main cause of neck pain and shoulder muscle tenderness in the working population is characterized by myofascial trigger points (MTrPs). This study aimed to examine the immediate and short-term effect of the combination of two therapeutic techniques for improving neck pain and muscle tenderness in patients with upper trapezius Myofascial Trigger points.

Interventional pain management for back and neck pain is widely used, but the indications and relative merits of these techniques rest subject to discussion. This study aims to identify prognostic criteria for patients who might specifically benefit from interventional pain management. Specifically, the nociceptive reflex threshold will be investigated, which is a measure of central sensibilisation and thus a potentially important prognostic factor.

Exercise training that is one of the effective treatment methods for cervical pain, is crucial in developing mobility and stability. Exercise training significantly reduces cervical pain as it advances postural alignment and neuromuscular coordination. In many single group studies on cervical pain in violin performers, it has been reported that the stabilization exercises have favorable consequences on pain relief and postural correction. But, there are no studies comparing ney and violin performers and analyzing the effectiveness of exercise training on non-specific cervical pain. The aim of this study is to search the effects of selected exercise training on pain, disability, range of motion, flexibility, strength and quality of life in ney and violin performers with non-specific cervical pain.

The aim of this research is to determine the Effects of Sub-Occipital Muscles Inhibition Technique and Cranio Cervical Flexion Exercise for Mechanical Neck Pain. A randomized control trail will conduct at Railway general hospital(IIMCT). The sample size will be 68. TheParticipants will bedividing into two groups,34 participants in Group A (receive the Sub-Occipital Muscles Inhibition Technique) and 34 in Group B (receive Cranio Cervical Flexion Exercise). The study duration will 6 months. Purposive non probability sampling technique will be applied. Both male and female participants with mechanical neck pain will be include. Tools use in this study areNumerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), Neck Disability Index (NDI),Goniometer, Pressure Biofeedback unit, Digital Camera. Data analyzed through SPSS version 21.

There is enough evidence to suggest that the spinal manipulation of the upper cervical spine and cervicothoracic spine are effective in decreasing neck pain. Therefore, the purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the effects of an isolated application of upper cervical spine thrust joint manipulation with the application of a full combination of cervical, cervico-thoracic and thoracic spine thrust joint manipulation on neck pain, disability and cervical range of motion in individuals with chronic mechanical neck pain.
