Book Synopsis Musculoskeletal Pain Emanating From the Head and Neck by : Irwin J Russell
Download or read book Musculoskeletal Pain Emanating From the Head and Neck written by Irwin J Russell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been around since the first rear-impact automobile accident and it will continue to be a problem as long as humans have large, heavy heads perched on slender, highly mobile cervical spines. The subject is whiplash, and some of the brightest minds on the topic gathered in Banff, Alberta, Canada, for the Eighth International Symposium by the Physical Medicine Research Foundation. Editor Dr. Murray E. Allen, Chairman of the Symposium, has collected the findings in Musculoskeletal Pain Emanating From the Head and Neck: Current Concepts in Diagnosis, Management, and Cost Containment to help physicians, physical therapists, chiropractors, and researchers better understand “the new whiplash,” make reliable clinical assessments, and provide more effective treatment. This thorough collection includes bump studies with human volunteers, research into safer automobile seat backs and head restraints, postmortem cervical spine examinations, reviews of the literature, and other investigations from around the world. Readers of Musculoskeletal Pain Emanating From the Head and Neck will learn specifically about: injury mechanisms, threshold for injury, and impact severity long-term outcomes of whiplash injury psychological aspects of chronic pain and disability dizziness, imbalance, and chronic incapacity intervertebral joint injuries and cervical synovial joint injuries the Neck Disability Index manipulation and mobilization therapies temporomandibular disorders/temporomandibular pain and dysfunction syndrome (TMPDS) Musculoskeletal Pain Emanating From the Head and Neck is not simply a collection of studies presenting data and findings--rather, it is a compilation of knowledge that illuminates the challenges of treating whiplash and makes some strong and straightforward recommendations for improvement. The contributors and the editor stress to the reader that in order to provide the best possible care, providers must be alert to the many secondary manifestations of whiplash, test for the perception of dysfunction, and be reassuring whenever possible. They must foster an atmosphere of confidence, encourage very early activation, and help persons maintain the momentum of their lives. Furthermore, Dr. Allen calls for caregivers to stop most (if not all) drug treatments, avoid passive failure-mode treatments, and avoid prolonged medicalization of any form of treatment. By studying the findings and following the recommendations of the international experts contributing to Musculoskeletal Pain Emanating From the Head and Neck, physicians, chiropractors, and physical therapists will foster self-reliance in their patients and improve diagnosis, treatment, and cost containment of whiplash.

Download or read book Thoracic Manipulation in Adults with Mechanical Neck Pain written by Oyinade Bokime Agbeja-Akindele and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2014-12 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neck pain is a common musculoskeletal disorder. It can be disabling, and constitutes a high health and economic burden. A large majority of neck pains are of mechanical origin. There has been a growing research interest on optimal interventions but there are no 'gold standards'. Spinal manipulation a form of manual therapy is often used in clinical practice to treat individuals with neck pain.However, in recent time manipulation applied directly to the cervical region has come under close scrutiny because of the potential risk of cervical arterial dysfunction. On the other hand, there is growing evidence for the use of thoracic spine manipulation in treating neck pain. Despite the relatively large number of randomized controlled trials carried on its effectiveness, the evidence of the effectiveness of thoracic manipulation in treating neck pain has been described as inconsistent and inconclusive. Therefore, this systematic review critically appraised, synthesized, and provides a clearer and more accurate overall assessment on the effectiveness of thoracic manipulation in reducing pain and disability in adults with mechanical neck pain.

Book Synopsis Grieve's Modern Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy by : Gwendolen Jull
Download or read book Grieve's Modern Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy written by Gwendolen Jull and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2015-05-11 with total page 669 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the third edition of Grieve's Modern Manual Therapy was published in 2005, the original concepts of manipulative therapy have grown to embrace new research-generated knowledge. Expansions in practice have adopted new evidence which include consideration of psychological or social moderators. The original manual therapy or manipulative therapy approaches have transformed into musculoskeletal physiotherapy and this is recognized by the change in title for the new edition – Grieve's Modern Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy. Grieve's Modern Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy continues to bring together the latest state-of-the-art research, from both clinical practice and the related basic sciences, which is most relevant to practitioners. The topics addressed and the contributing authors reflect the best and most clinically relevant contemporary work within the field of musculoskeletal physiotherapy. With this as its foundation and a new six-strong editorial team at its helm, the fourth edition now expands its focus from the vertebral column to the entire musculoskeletal system. For the first time both the spine and extremities are covered, capturing the key advances in science and practices relevant to musculoskeletal physiotherapy. The book is divided into five parts containing multiple sections and chapters. The first part looks at advances in the sciences underpinning musculoskeletal physiotherapy practice. Here there is commentary on topics such as movement, the interaction between pain and motor control as well as neuromuscular adaptations to exercise. Applied anatomical structure is covered in addition to the challenges of lifestyle and ageing. A new section highlights the important area of measurement and presents the scope of current and emerging measurements for investigating central and peripheral aspects relating to pain, function and morphological change. Another section discusses some contemporary research approaches such as quantitative and qualitative methods as well as translational research. Part III contains sections on the principles of and broader aspects of management which are applicable to musculoskeletal disorders of both the spine and periphery. Topics include models for management prescription, communication and pain management and contemporary principles of management for the articular, nervous and sensorimotor systems. In recognition of the patient centred and inclusive nature of contemporary musculoskeletal practice, there is also discussion about how physiotherapists may use cognitive behavioural therapies when treating people with chronic musculoskeletal disorders. The final part of the book focuses on selected contemporary issues in clinical practice for a particular region, condition or the most topical approaches to the diagnosis and management of a region. A critical review of the evidence (or developing evidence) for approaches is given and areas for future work are highlighted. - Presents state-of-the-art manual therapy research from the last 10 years - Multidisciplinary authorship presents the viewpoints of different professions crucial to the ongoing back pain management debate - Highly illustrated and fully referenced

This book was released on 2016 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The major part of the thesis involved in a randomized controlled clinical trial undertaken to investigate the effects of cervical manual therapy (mobilization and manipulation) on patients with chronic mechanical neck pain. One hundred and forty-seven patients were recruited from the Physiotherapy Department, Prince of Wales Hospital and randomized into a manual therapy (MT) group and a control (CON) group. The age range of the MT group was from 19 to 66 (mean age 46.6℗ł10.0) and that of the CON group was from 23 to 63 (mean age 45.5℗ł9.5). The patients in the MT group received manual therapy, 15-minutes of irradiation therapy (IRR) together with neck exercises listed in a neck exercise pamphlet, whereas those in the CON group only received IRR and neck exercises. All patients received 8 sessions of treatment over a 4-week interval. The outcome measures included subjective pain intensity (NPRS), neck disability (NPQ), cervical ROM, HRA and postural stability (BBS). Assessments were made by a blinded assessor at baseline, immediately post-intervention (completion of 8 sessions of treatment), 3 months and 6 months after completion of treatment. No statistically significant differences were found between the two groups in any of the outcome measures in the baseline comparison. After 8 sessions of intervention over a 4-week period, patients in the MT group had realized greater improvement than those in the CON group in cervical ROM (12.85% vs. 1.11%), HRA (25% vs. 3.32%), postural stability (BBS) (38.3% vs. 17.19%) and NPRS (38.9% vs. 10.2%) (p
