简要总结
The most frequent kind of primary headache is tension headache, often known as stress headache or tension-type headache (TTH). The pain usually affects both sides of the head and might extend from the lower back of the head, the neck, the eyes, or other muscle groups in the body. Nearly 90 percent of all headaches are tension-type headaches causing a debilitating effect on job productibility and overall quality of life. The aim of the study will be to compare the effects of spinal mobilizations comprising Mulligan's headache SNAGs and Maitland's PA glide with the myofascial release technique on pain and disability in patients with tension-type headache.
详细描述
A Randomized Clinical Trial will be conducted at FMH Physiotherapy Clinic, NUR International Physical Therapy clinic and Boston Physiotherapy Clinic Lahore through consecutive sampling technique on 34 patients which will be allocated using simple random sampling through sealed opaque envelopes into Group A and Group B. Group A will be treated with Spinal Mobilizations comprising Mulligan's headache SNAGs and Maitland's PA glide and Group B will be treated with Myofascial release technique. Outcome measures tools will be conducted through NPRS, Headache disability Index, Headache impact test (HIT-6). Data will be analyzed using SPSS software version 25. After assessing normality of data by Shapiro-wilk test, it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be used within a group or between two groups

结局指标
主要结局
International Classification of Headache Disorders Criteria (ICHD-3 beta)
时间窗: 4 weeks
It is used for diagnosis of the tension type headache and has following specifications: The pain should be bilateral, pressing and tightening pain, having a mild-moderate intensity \[≤7.0 on a visual analog scale (VAS)\] and there should be no increase in pain with physical activity. The patients should not have phonophobia, nausea, vomiting or photophobia. Headache should last between 30 minutes and 7 days
Headache Impact Test (HIT-6)
时间窗: 4 weeks
The HIT-6 is a 6-item screening instrument used to quantify headache. It assesses the effects of headaches on daily life activities. This questionnaire has 6 questions, with a maximum number of points of 6\*13 (78). A total score of 36 means best and 78 means worst in terms of headache. Scores above 50 are "high".
Headache Disability Index Questionnaire
时间窗: 4 weeks
To quantify the impact of headache on daily living, a 25-item headache disability inventory (HDI) will be used. Each requiring a "yes" (four points), "sometimes" (two points), or "no" (zero points) response based on items derived empirically from case history responses of subjects with headache. Items are sub grouped into functional and emotional subscales
Numeric pain rate scale (NPRS)
时间窗: 4 weeks
Patient level of pain will be assessed using this scale. This scale ranges from 0 to 10. 0 indicates "no pain" and 10 indicates "worst pain"
