Efficacy of Physical Therapy Intervention in Cervical Angina Patients at Jerash University Office Employees, "Randomized Clinical Trail".

April 4, 2024 updated by: Ibrahim Abuzaid, South Valley University
Cervicogenic angina (CA) is defined as paroxysmal angina- like pain that originates from the disorders of the cervical spine or other neck structures. Because CA mimics typical cardiac angina, symptoms in the elderly with cervical spondylosis are more frequently misdiagnosed Nakajima H, 2006. Patients with CA may have suffered symptoms for longer periods of time and seen several clinicians due to conflicting cardiac exams. Clinicians and patients are unaware that CA symptoms are stemming from cervical spine disorders. However, the mechanism of pain occurrence in patients with CA remains unclear.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Randomized Control Trail (RCT) will be used in the study. Participants will be divided into two groups (experimental and control groups). Each group will include 30 participants.

The study population will be employees working in JU from different departments.

A total of 60 participants will be included in the study. Their weight ranged from (50 kilograms) to (100 kilograms). And their height ranged from (150 centimeters) to (190 centimeters). And their body mass index ranged from (22.2) to (27.7). This will be divided into 2 groups with 30 participants in each group.

The data collected will focus on measuring the Range of Motion (ROM) of the cervical spine using an Electro-Goniometer, the pain using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and the Hart Rate (HR) using an electro cardio Graphic (ECG).

The study setting will be JU, located in Jerash City, Jordan.
