简要总结
The study will be randomized control trial. The study will be conducted in Iqbal Mehmooda Trust Hospital. Group A will be treated with global postural reeducation. Group B will be treated with neck stabilization training. Non probability consecutive sampling technique will be used. Patient below 20-40 years, participants who use smart phones for 8 hours per day(guidelines), angle of forward head pasture above 15, screening picture tool.
Neurological defects, trauma, tumor, shoulder injury, cervical disc disease. REBA questionnaire, NDI, Goniometry, NPRS will be used as a tool. The global postural reeducation will be applied on group A while neck stabilization training will be applied on group B. The aim of this study will be to compare the effects of of global postural reeducation and neck stabilization training on text neck syndrome.
详细描述
''Text neck syndrome'' describes the neck pain and looking down at the smart gadgets repeatedly and for prolonged duration that leads to damage of various structures. The cervical spine consists of bundles of nerves, bones, joints and muscles. If nerves are compressed then pain can radiate to shoulder, arm and hand. 79% of the population between the age of 18-44 use their cell phones almost all the time except only 2 hours of their walking time without the usage of their cell phones. The forward head posture/Turtle neck posture causes strain on the muscles, ligaments and joints that leads to compression of nerves and it causes tingling and numbness in the hands. The usage of smart gadgets for prolonged duration has negative impact on our anxiety and depression. Excessive use of smart phones leads to postural problems like forward neck posture, slouched posture or rounded shoulders.

主要结局
REBA questionnaire to measure body position on work station.
时间窗: 6 weeks
The Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) was developed to "rapidly" evaluate the risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) associated with certain job tasks. The change will be assessed from Baseline and end of treatment.
