Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Neck pain is a common musculoskeletal disorder, the most common type being non-specific chronic neck pain. It usually involves postural or mechanical causes. In Individuals with neck pain, a notable prevalence of visual complaints has been predominantly reported. It can be linked to the mismatch in the cervical afferent output.
UNASSIGNED: This study aimed to assess the effect of oculomotor exercises on neck pain, neck disability, gaze stability and visual complaints among individuals with non-specific chronic neck pain and associated visual complaints.
UNASSIGNED: A total of 32 individuals with non-specific chronic neck pain and associated visual complaints were equally randomised into two groups. To receive either: stretching to the sternocleidomastoid and anterior scalene along with neck Isometric exercises (Group A, conventional) or the conventional protocol along with oculomotor exercises (Group B, experimental). The protocol was given for three alternate days a week for three weeks, a total of nine sessions. The outcome measures were the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain, Neck Disability Index (NDI) for disability, Dynamic Visual Acuity (DVA) test for gaze stability and Visual Complaints Index (VCI) for visual complaints.
UNASSIGNED: Significant results were seen for the DVA (p=0.002) and VCI (p=0.024), suggesting improvements in gaze stability and visual complaints using oculomotor exercises.
UNASSIGNED: From this study, we highlighted that oculomotor exercises along with conventional treatment led to improvement in visual complaints and gaze stability in patients with non-specific chronic neck pain and associated visual complaints.
摘要:
颈部疼痛是一种常见的肌肉骨骼疾病,最常见的类型是非特异性慢性颈痛。它通常涉及姿势或机械原因。在患有颈部疼痛的人中,主要报告了明显的视觉投诉患病率。它可能与宫颈传入输出的不匹配有关。
本研究旨在评估动眼锻炼对颈部疼痛的影响,颈部残疾,非特异性慢性颈部疼痛和相关视觉投诉个体的凝视稳定性和视觉投诉。
共有32名患有非特异性慢性颈痛和相关视觉不适的患者被随机分为两组。接受以下任一项:伸展至胸锁乳突和前斜角,以及颈部等距运动(A组,常规)或常规方案以及动眼锻炼(B组,实验性)。该方案每周间隔三天,持续三周,共九次会议。结果测量是疼痛的视觉模拟评分(VAS),颈部残疾指数(NDI)用于凝视稳定性的动态视觉敏锐度(DVA)测试和用于视觉投诉的视觉投诉指数(VCI)。
观察到DVA(p=0.002)和VCI(p=0.024)的显着结果,建议使用动眼锻炼改善凝视稳定性和视觉投诉。
从这项研究来看,我们强调,在非特异性慢性颈痛和相关视觉主诉的患者中,眼球运动锻炼与常规治疗可改善视觉主诉和凝视稳定性.
