简要总结
Cervical radiculopathy is a condition characterized by nerve compression which can lead to pain weakness and sensory loss in arm and shoulder. According to W.Magnus in 2023, he concluded that cervical radiculopathy incidence rate are very common and affect day to day life. The DASH questionnaire is widely used to asses upper-limb disability but it is not condition specific therefore, validating its use in cervical radiculopathy cases by correlating it with a condition -specific tool like the CRIS scale is necessary. By evaluating the reliability and concurrent validity of DASH with reference to CRIS scale, it determine whether DASH accurately measures functional impairment specific to Cervical-radiculopathy. By conducting this study the research will fill an important gap in literature and provide evidence regarding the use of DASH for assessing functional impairment in cervical radiculopathy subjects. Establishing the concurrent validity and reliability of DASH.
