简要总结
Fibromyalgia is a chronic illness characterised by persistent,widespread muscle pain with generalised hyperalgesia and allodynia. It can be accompanied by other concomitant symptoms like fatigue, sleep disturbances, musculoskeletal disorders, distress and psychological disorders. This condition is very prevalent. It has been reported to be about 2-5% of the general global population.
Fibromyalgia have been reported to have neurodynamic disorders. The purpose of this prospective study was to examine the combined effects of soft tissue mobilization and nerve slider neurodynamic technique on pain and pressure sensitivity in women with fibromyalgia.
详细描述
Fibromyalgia affects women nine times more than men.The pathophysiology of fibromyalgia is being studied nowadays in order to understand the mechanisms implicated in it.
The treatment propose in this study is a neurodynamic intervention. Neurodynamics is the term used to describe the integration of the morphology, biomechanics and physiology of the nervous system.

结局指标
主要结局
Nervous assessment
时间窗: baseline, 8 weeks
Changes from baseline to postintervention measured with neurodynamic tests This is to test upper extremities. It moves most of the nerves between the neck and hand, including the median nerve, radial and ulnar, brachial plexus, spinal nerves and cervical nerve roots. The patient is placed supine position. It is measured with a goniometer.
次要结局
- Grip strength(baseline, 8 weeks)
- Manual dexterity(baseline, 8 weeks)
- Pressure pain measure(baseline, 8 weeks)
