结局指标
主要结局
visual analogue scale
时间窗: 4 week
10 cm horizontal line anchored by and it is a line score from zero to ten which 10 score means it is the worse of pain and zero score means the least pain ""no pain"" on the leftand ""worst imaginable pain"" on the right). Patients indicate their pain intensity by marking on the point at the line that reflect their pain
Neck disability index
时间窗: 4 weeks
It includes 10 questions of which 7 examine functional activities, 2 ask about symptoms and a question considers concentration. Each Patient will circle one of the six options describing the severity of each item (0 5). total score for the questionnaire out of 50. Higher scores represent greater disability.
Electromyography
时间窗: 4 weeks
used for measuring upper trapezius normalized Root mean square to indicate muscular activities and median frequence to indicate muscular fatigue. Active electrode will be located 2 cm lateral to the midpoint of a line drawn between C7 spinous process and the posterolateral acromion while the reference one will be located over the C7 spinous process.
