Prediction of Cervical Radiculopathy Success With PNF and Mobilization

Identifying Patients With Cervical Radiculopathy Responding to Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation Exercises Combined With Passive Cervical Mobilization: Clinical Prediction Rule

• Status: Unknown
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 50 (estimated)
• Sponsor: Cairo University · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 40 Years – 60 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

The goal of this predictive interventional study is todetrmine clinical predictors for success with combined proprioceptive neuromusclualr faciitaion (PNF) and passive mobilization ain patients with cervical radiculopathy (CR).

Detailed description

This study will answer the question, what are the factors affecting success with PNF and mobilization for patients with CR? No control group. The goal of this new study is to see the effect of age, duration of symptoms, forward posture angle and neck disability index response to passive mobilization combined with the PNF technique

Conditions

• Cervical Radiculopathy

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation	Contract relax technique for each neck motion for three repetitions.
OTHER	Passive mobilization	To restore normal joint play, postero-anterior passive joint mobilization of cervical spine segments and cervicothoracic junction in limited motion will be applied.
