简要总结
This study was conducted to investigate the effect of Graston technique versus Kinesiotaping on myofascial pain syndrome after neck dissection surgery.
详细描述
Fifty two patients from both genders who had cervical Myofascial pain syndrome following a neck dissection surgery participated in this Study. Their ages ranged from 30 to 50 years. They had been selected from the National Cancer Institute, Cairo University. They were assigned randomly into two groups (A) and (B), equal in number. Group (A) received Graston technique (IASTM), in addition to traditional treatment (range of motion exercises, stretching exercises and strengthening exercises) for 12 Sessions performed in a period of 4 weeks (three times weekly). While Group (B) Received kinesiotaping, in addition to traditional treatment (range of motion exercises, stretching exercises and strengthening exercises) for 8 sessions performed in a period of 4 weeks (twice weekly). Pressure pain threshold, visual analogue scale and cervical lateral flexion and rotation were measured pre and post 4 weeks of treatment.

入选标准
- •The subjects were selected according to the following criteria:
- •The patient's ages ranged from 30 to 50 years participated in this study. Both genders participated in this study. All patients had a history of MPS at UTM from 3 to 5 months. All patients had moderate to severe pain (VAS score >4). Informed consent was obtained from every patient enrolled in the trial. All patients had myofascial pain syndrome after unilateral modified radical neck dissection surgery.
排除标准
- •The potential participants were excluded if they meet one of the following criteria:
- •A wound in the affected area A cervical disk lesion Myelopathy or radiculopathy Cervical spine fracture or spondylolisthesis Rheumatoid arthritis Epilepsy or any psychological disorders Contraindications to IASTM. Contraindications to Kinesiotaping. Coagulopathy. Hemophilia or other clotting disorders.
结局指标
主要结局
Range of motion (ROM) (cervicallateralflexion)
时间窗: Pretreatment, post treatment ( after 4 weeks of treatment)
Universal Goniometer is a reliable instrument used to evaluate Range of motion in degrees
Range of motion (ROM) (cervical rotation)
时间窗: Pretreatment, post treatment ( after 4 weeks of treatment)
Universal Goniometer is a reliable instrument used to evaluate Range of motion in degrees
Pressure pain threshold
时间窗: Pretreatment, post treatment ( after 4 weeks of treatment)
Pressure Algometer with a spring is used. They maintain a peak force or pressure (KP (kilopond) = 10 N, Newton = 100 kPa (kilopascal)) until tared
Assessment of pain
时间窗: Pretreatment, post treatment ( after 4 weeks of treatment)
Vasual Analogue Scale(VAS) is used technique for assessing pain intensity , a continuous scale with a vertical or horizontal line of 100 mm, from 0 to10, whose extremes are designated "no pain" and "worst imaginable pain" (0= no pain; 10= most painful imaginable pain).
