IRCT20190912044754N1 IRCT 2020-01-19 The University of Lahore COMPARATIVE EFFECTIVENESS OF ROUTINE PHYSICAL THERAPY WITH AND WITHOUT INSTRUMENT ASSISTED SOFT TISSUE MOBILIZATION IN PATIENTS WITH NECK PAIN DUE TO UPPER CROSSED SYNDROME COMPARATIVE EFFECTIVENESS OF ROUTINE PHYSICAL THERAPY WITH AND WITHOUT INSTRUMENT ASSISTED SOFT TISSUE MOBILIZATION IN PATIENTS WITH NECK PAIN DUE TO UPPER CROSSED SYNDROME 2640-12-11 anticipated 60 Pending https://irct.ir/trial/42079 interventional Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Single blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: The subjects fulfilling the inclusion criteria will be enrolled after independent outcome assessor .Then coin toss method is being used for randomization .The coin thrown in air having two sides with label "A" and "B". The subjects randomization method reduces the chances of bias group allocation , Blinding description: It will be single blind and assessor will be blind .All assessments before and after the intervention will be done by Independent assessor and only eligible subjects will be enrolled . Neck Range of Motion ,Neck disability Index and Pain will be measured .Then subjects will be kept confidential and only it will be given after the assessor has completed an assessment at baseline , after 02 weeks and 04 weeks. 0 (exploratory trials) Upper Crossed Syndrome. Intervention 1: Intervention group: Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization. Intervention 2: Routine Physical Therapy : Routine physical Therapy exercise. Yes - There is a plan to make this available What will be shared: Effectiveness of routine physical therapy with and without IASTM in patients with neck pain due to upper crossed syndrome Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization Technique for Upper crossed Syndrome When: It will be available after study completion To whom: To researchers for study only.Patient data will not be shown . Conditions: under the usage with terms in which journal is accessed /processed for publication Where to obtain: from the University office and Responsible supervisor and from journal we will process in future How to obtain: It will be only used in confidential way for improving research and benefit of humanity Comments: It will be first study of such type in pakistan using Soft Tissue mobilization technique which is instrument assisted that is the only reason study has a motivational factor and researchers are waiting for its results .
