简要总结
this study will be to evaluate the effectiveness of AI-recommended exercise interventions versus standard corrective exercises in management of non-specific neck pain with forward head and rounded shoulder posture. with the goal of improving neck pain, functional disability, forward head, and rounded shoulder postures.
详细描述
The aim of the current study is to evaluate the efficacy of APECS-AI app suggested exercises and standard corrective exercises in managing non-specific neck pain with forward head and rounded shoulders posture. Forty-six subjects of both genders between (18 and 35 years old) have non-specific neck pain with forward head and rounded shoulder posture will be enrolled in this study. The subjects will be randomized into two equal groups (n = 23 each): An intervention group (Group A), will receive AI-generated personalized exercise regimens from the APECS-AI app, and a control group (Group B), will perform standard corrective exercises

入选标准
- •Subjects with non-specific neck pain who had localized neck pain felt it anywhere along the cervical spine, from the superior nuchal line to the first thoracic spinous process.
- •Neck pain between 3 and 8cm on a visual analogue scale. Subjects suffering from chronic (> 12 weeks) neck pain. Subjects with forward head posture with craniovertebral angle (CVA) angle less than 50 degrees.
- •Subjects with rounded shoulder posture as shoulder angle <
- •Subjects must not have received any pharmacological medication related to their musculoskeletal condition as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or muscle relaxant for at least three months prior to enrolment in the study.
- •Subjects must not have involved in any form of physical therapy or structured postural correction programs within the 6 months prior to study -
排除标准
- •Musculoskeletal diseases, cardiopulmonary diseases, and a history of surgery that could affect the experiment.
- •History of cervical spine injury or surgery.
- •Neck pain secondary to other conditions (e.g. Neoplasm, neurological diseases or vascular diseases).
- •Spondylosis and spondylolisthesis
- •A neurological disease, infection.
- •Inflammatory arthritis in the cervical spine.
- •Poor general health status that would interfere with the exercises -

结局指标
主要结局
The craniovertebral angle
时间窗: 6 weeks
forward head posture. will be measured by Kinovea software and the APECS AI app. More than 50 degrees is considered normal.
Shoulder angle
时间窗: 6 weeks
rounded shoulder posture will be measured by Kinovea software and the APECS AI app. more than 52 is considered normal
functional disability
时间窗: 6 weeks
is measured by neck disability index (NDI). A higher score reflects a greater level of neck disorder-related disability
pain level
时间窗: 6 weeks
It is measured by visual analogue scale (VAS). 10-cm line that represents a pain spectrum between "no pain" and "worst pain," as the word descriptions "no pain" on the left and "worst imaginable pain" on the right serve as anchors for the 100-mm-long horizontal line
