Descrizione dettagliata
The aim of the study is to determine the effects of scapulothoracic intervention with or without neural mobilization on pain, function, and neural mechanosensitivity in patients with cervicobrachialgia.
Methods: A randomized controlled trial will be conducted on 40 patients diagnosed with cervicobrachialgia. Participants will be randomly allocated into two groups, with 20 participants in each group. Group A received scapulothoracic rehabilitation combined with neural mobilization (ST+NM), while Group B received neural mobilization alone (NM). Treatment will be administered according to the study protocol over the intervention period. Outcome measures includes the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) for pain intensity, Neck Pain Questionnaire (NPQ) for neck-related disability, PainDETECT Questionnaire (PDQ) for neuropathic pain symptoms, and Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) questionnaire for upper limb function. Assessments were performed before and after the intervention. Data will be analyzed using paired sample t-tests, independent sample t-tests, Mann-Whitney U tests, and Wilcoxon Signed Rank tests with a significance level of p<0.05.

Cosa sta misurando lo studio?
Misure di risultato primarie
Misura del risultato |
Misura Descrizione |
Lasso di tempo |
|---|---|---|
|
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
Lasso di tempo: upto 6 weeks
|
The VAS is a common, subjective measurement tool that is used to measure the level of pain severity using an 11-point range with zero (no pain) and ten (heaviest pain imaginable).
Patients use a subjective scale to rate their pain verbally and the following scales apply to 1-3 mild, 4-6 moderate, and 7-10 severe pain.
|
upto 6 weeks
|
|
Northwick Park Neck Pain Questionnaire (NPQ)
Lasso di tempo: upto 6 weeks
|
The NPQ is a 9- questionnaire assessing neck pain disability with each question put on a scale of 0 to 4(code converted to percentage).
It examines nocturnal sleep, activities during the day, and social goals.
With cervicobrachialgia, it is used to measure functional restrictiveness such as neck/arm pain.
Scores: 0-20 percent (light), 21-40 percent (moderate), >40 percent (severe).
|
upto 6 weeks
|
Misure di risultato secondarie
Misura del risultato |
Misura Descrizione |
Lasso di tempo |
|---|---|---|
|
PainDETECT questionnaire (PD-Q)
Lasso di tempo: upto 6 weeks
|
It is a 9-item instrument that has 7 scored items 0-5, and 2 items of the pain pattern characteristics of neuropathic pain in cervicobrachialgia.
score 0-38: <13 (not likely neuropathic), 13-18 (indeterminate), >=19 (probable neuropathic).
It assesses the quality of pain (burning, tingling etc.), radiation patterns.
|
upto 6 weeks
|
|
Disability of Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH)
Lasso di tempo: upto 6 weeks
|
The DASH assesses upper limb disability and is a 30 item questionnaire scaled 1-5.
The total point (0-100) is counted: [(the sum of the responses/n) -1] x 25.
The higher the score and the more they are disabled.
The course is minimal clinically significant difference, 10 points.
In case of cervicobrachialgia, it examines the impairment of arm functioning.
|
upto 6 weeks
|
|
FABF Questionnaire (FABQ)
Lasso di tempo: upto 6 weeks
|
FABQ contains 16 items consisting of two subscales namely, physical activity (4 items, 0-24) and work (7 items, 0-42).
The more the score, the higher fear-avoidance.
In cervicobrachialgia, scores above 14 (work) or 12 (physical activity), predict an unsatisfactory recovery.

upto 6 weeks
