简要总结
This study investigates if/how an experimentally applied neck muscle pain influences head repositioning error in healthy participants.
详细描述
Healthy volunteers will participate in a single session study with a crossover design.
During the study healthy participants will be randomized to either receive a injection of hypertonic saline (painful injection) or isotonic saline (control injection) in a neck muscle.
Head repositioning accuracy will be assessed with and without performing a cognitive task.

研究组 & 干预措施
Painful condition
Participants will be injected with 0.5ml hypertonic saline (5.8%) into a neck muscle
干预措施: Injection of hypertonic saline (Drug)
Control condition
Participants will be injected with 0.5ml Isotonic saline (0.9%) into a neck muscle
干预措施: Injection of Isotonic saline (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Change in head repositioning accuracy
时间窗: Within session (session lasts approximately 2 hours)
Participants will be blindfolded and asked asked to, from a neutral position, to move the head into full range of motion before returning to to a neutral position again. The difference between the start and end position will be used as an estimate of head repositioning error.
次要结局
- Change in perceived pain(Within session (session lasts approximately 2 hours))
- Change in perceived performance of head repositioning accuracy test(Within session (session lasts approximately 2 hours))
