Low Back PainRadiculopathy

Low back pain (LBP) and radiculopathic pain are a major socio-economic problem affecting all age groups. 70% of people consult a doctor at least once in their life due to LBP. Radicular pain is thought to be caused by inflammation of the spinal nerve roots near the intervertebral disc injury. In this context, fluoroscopic guided transforaminal epidural steroid injection (TFESI) has been increasingly preferred in patients who can not benefit from conservative approach in the treatment of lumbosacral radiculopathic pain due to lumbar disc herniation in recent years. The assessment of comorbid psychiatric conditions such as depression, anxiety, and somatization disorder and given the detailed and visual information to patients who will be undergone TFESI could affect the result of the treatment in a good way. The pain questionnaire used for objectively evaluating injection outcomes is personality dependent and there are many factors that can affect it.

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.

Gross Myofascial Release in Cervical Radiculopathy Pat

Cervical Radiculopathy

To investigate the Effect of gross Myofascial Release on pain and function in cervical radiculopathy patients. BACKGROUND: cervical radiculopathy is considered serious problems causing neck pain & radiating pain which affect physical inactivity and function of a patient, thus gross Myofascial Release is a form of manual therapy technique that has a profound effect upon the musculoskeletal system. HYPOTHESES: This study hypothesized that: gross Myofascial Release on pain and function in cervical radiculopathy patients RESEARCH QUESTION: Is there an effect of gross Myofascial Release on pain and function in cervical radiculopathy patients?

Effect of Routine Physical Therapy With and Without Core Stability Exercises in Patients With Lumbar...

Lumbar Radiculopathy

The goal of this Randomized controlled trial was to examine the effect of routine physical therapy with and without core stability exercises in patients with lumbar radiculopathy. The main question it aims to answer is: • To examine the effect of routine physical therapy with and without core stability exercises in patients with lumbar radiculopathy Participants after reading and signing the consent form were included in study according to eligibility criteria and were allocated in to 2 groups, the Standard Physical Therapy treatment along with core strengthening exercises. Core strengthening exercises were carried out in their respective standard positions (were modified according to patient's comfortability). We measured outcome through different outcome measure tools.

Comparison of Artificial Disc Implants in Cervical Disc Arthroplasty

Cervical Spondylosis With MyelopathyCervical Radiculopathy2 more

This study will comprehensively evaluate the outcomes and endpoints of these two different FDA-approved artificial disc implants used to treat cervical spondylotic myelopathy and/or radiculopathy today: Biomet Zimmer Mobi-C and Nuvasive Simplify. Both implants are structurally different with the Nuvasive Simplify implementing a three-piece design with two endplates and a semi-constrained mobile core while the Biomet Zimmer Mobi-C implements an unconstrained three piece design. Subjects will be age-matched and randomly assigned to either implant with informed consent. All subjects will undergo a variety of assessments that evaluate neck disability, quality of life, pain, physiological outcome (radiographic assessments), and neck range-of motion before and after their procedure. One baseline testing will be conducted along with three post-operation visits (three months, six months, and one year) in accordance to standard follow-up procedure. Thus, the duration of participation in the study will be approximately one and a half years.

Cervical Lordosis Rehabilitation

To test the hypothesis that improvement of cervical lordosis (CL) in cervical spondylotic radiculopathy (CSR) will improve clinical features in a population suffering from CSR. Thirty chronic lower CSR patients with CL < 25° will be included. Patients will be assigned randomly into two equal groups, study and control . Both groups will receive neck stretching and exercises and infrared; additionally the study group will receive cervical extension traction. Treatments will be applied 3 time per week for 10 weeks after which groups will be followed for 3-months and 2-years. Amplitude of dermatomal somatosensory evoked potentials (DSSEPS), Cervical lordosis, and pain scales (NRS) will be measured.
