简要总结
Orofacial pain is one of the most common dysfunctions among wind musicians, a population with a high incidence of temporomandibular disorder (TMD). Regarding the treatment of TMD, the efficacy of manual therapy and therapeutic exercise has been studied, but there is a lack of high quality research supporting its implementation. There is, however, an agreement on the need of combining the treatment of the temporomandibular joint and the cervical spine, due to their close biomechanical relation.
Aims of the study: To analyse the efficacy of an evidence-based manual therapy protocol alone or in combination with an exercise program on the treatment of orofacial pain during musical practice on wind musicians. Furthermore, this study aims at observing whether if said treatment is more effective in the short, medium, or long term, and which variables are the most influenced.
详细描述
Methods: A sample of 40 wind musicians with orofacial pain during practice with the instrument will be recruited in the different conservatories of the Community of Madrid. The sample will be divided into two different groups: a control group who will receive the manual therapy protocol, and an experimental group who will, in addition, receive an exercise program. Treatment will consist of ten session distributed along 5 weeks, of an approximated duration of 30 minutes per session. Assessments will be carried out pre- and post-intervention, and for a two- and four-months follow-up.

Wind musicians
This group will be treated by manual therapy: suboccipital inhibition, myofascial extracavitary treatment in (superior trapezius fibers, Sternocleidomastoid (ECOM), masseter and temporalis) and intracavitary muscles (medialis and lateral pterygoid muscles).

结局指标
主要结局
Orofacial pain
时间窗: Change from baseline at 2 months
Visual Analogic Scale.The pain VAS is a unidimensional measure of pain intensity, which has been widely used in diverse adult populations. The VAS is a straight horizontal line of fixed length, usually 100 mm. The ends are defined as the extreme limits of the parameter to be measured from 0 (no pain) to 10 (maximum pain). All the subjects will showed their pain level.
Pressure Pain Threshold
时间窗: Change from baseline at 2 months
An algometer Wagner FPI 10-WA will be used to determine the Pressure Pain Threshold in trigger points.
Range of Temporo mandibular Movement
时间窗: Change from baseline at 2 months
A vernier caliper will be used to measure mandibular movements. A vernier caliper is a validated tool to measure the opening, protusion, laterotrusion and overjet movements of the temporo mandibular joint
cervical range of movement (CROM)
时间窗: Change from baseline at 2 months
The instruments used to assess CROM will be a CROM goniometer. The CROM goniometer is a validated tool to measure the flexion, extension, rotation and tilt movements of the cervical spine.
