Therapy of Pain Syndromes According to McGill's Method in Physiotherapy

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Vertebrogenic Pain Syndrome
• Interventions: Other: Thoracic pain; Other: Lumbar pain; Other: Cervical pain

• Registration Number: NCT04695665
• Lead Sponsor: Charles University, Czech Republic

Brief Summary

The goal of this study is to determine the applicability of McGill ́s method to patients with diagnoses, collectively referred to as Vertebrogenic Algic syndrome, by comparing the measured data of proband with different diagnosis locations Vertebrogenic Algic syndrome in the Czech Republic.

Detailed Description

This is a pilot experimental research involving 10 probands diagnosed with Vertebrogenic Algic syndrome in the cervical spine, 10 probands diagnosed with Vertebrogenic Algic syndrome in the thoracic spine and 10 probands diagnosed with Vertebrogenic Algic syndrome in the lumbar spine. Each participant undergo a kinesiological examination according to the McGill ́s principles together with an SF-36 questionnaire. Measured values are compared and provided a basis for testing the hypotheses. The study uses methods of research, observation, querying and comparison of collected data.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Thoracic pain	Thoracic pain	Only patients with positive Thoracic pain syndrome.
Lumbar pain	Lumbar pain	Only patients with positive Lumbar pain syndrome.
Cervical pain	Cervical pain	Only patients with positive Cervical pain syndrome.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
multi-segmental efficiency	4 weeks	comparison of the effectiveness of therapy of the three evaluated groups against each other by Short Form (SF36) Healthy survey questionnaire, the scale from 100 to 900, lower value indicate a higher effect
Pain relief	4 weeks, 2 times a week exercising for 60 minutes	change in pain perception measured on a visual analog scale - from 0 (without pain) to 10 (maximum pain)
