简要总结
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of Kinesio taping on myofascial pain syndrome post neck dissection surgery.
详细描述
In this part of the study, the materials and methods will be presented under the following headings: subjects, equipment, procedures of the study and the statistical procedures.
- Subjects:
Sixty patients from both genders who have cervical myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) following a neck dissection surgery will participate in this study. Their ages will be ranged from 30 to 45 years. The participants will be selected from the National Cancer Institute, Cairo University and randomly distributed into two equal groups.
1.1 Design of the study:
In this study the patients will be randomly assigned into two equal groups (30 patients for each group):

结局指标
主要结局
assessing and quantifying pain exhibited by the patients
时间窗: 1 month
Visual analogue scale (VAS): The Visual analogue Scale (VAS) has been in use for the measurement of intangible quantities such as pain, quality of life and anxiety since the 1920s. It consists of a line usually 100 mm in length, with anchor descriptors such as (in the pain context) "no pain" and "worst pain imaginable". The patient makes a mark reflecting his or her perception, and the distance from the left endpoint to the mark is measured, in mm. The VAS was initially used in psychology for the measurement of mood disorders, and was used for the measurement of pain from the mid-1960s The VAS will be used for assessing and quantifying pain exhibited by the patients through a 0-10 scale. Each subject twill be informed to mark the line according to the pain intensity experienced at that particular time where 0 means no pain and 10 means worst conceivable pain
次要结局
- pressure pain threshold (PPT)(1 month)
