Обзор
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of Interferential Current Therapy on pain, disability, and quality of life in patients with chronic neck pain and to compare the effects of applying Interferential Current Therapy with vacuum electrodes versus carbon-silicon pad electrodes.
Подробное описание
Neck pain is quite common in the adult population and is a frequent reason for seeking medical attention. The prevalence of neck problems has increased with modern lifestyle changes. In individuals with neck pain, symptoms may resolve on their own within a few weeks, but approximately 30% of cases can become chronic. Neck pain lasting 1-4 weeks is considered acute; 4-12 weeks is subacute; and neck pain persisting for 12 weeks or more is considered chronic. Interferential current therapy is used in the treatment of chronic neck pain and is one of the physical therapy methods with analgesic effects. It is widely used around the world. Interferential Current Therapy can be applied using two types of electrodes: vacuum electrodes and carbon-silicon pad electrodes.The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of Interferential Current Therapy on pain, disability, and quality of life in patients with chronic neck pain and to compare the effects of applying Interferential Current Therapy with vacuum electrodes versus carbon-silicon pad electrodes
Вмешательства
- Устройство Sham vacuum
Participants will undergo a total of 10 treatment sessions over two weeks, with one session per day, five days a week. Two-channel four vacuum electrodes will be placed on the neck so that the painful area remains in the middle. The vacuum electrodes will apply continuous vacuum mode for only 10 minutes without delivering interferential current. Following the sham vacuum therapy, a hot pack will be applied to the painful neck area for 20 minutes. - Устройство Interferential Current Therapy Vacuum Electrodes
Participants will undergo a total of 10 treatment sessions over two weeks, with one session per day, five days a week. Two-channel four vacuum electrodes will be placed on the neck so that the painful area remains in the middle. Interferential current therapy with a 4000 Hz carrier frequency and 50 Hz amplitude-modulated frequency will be applied for 10 minutes using the vacuum electrodes. After the interferential current therapy, a hot pack will be applied to the painful neck area for 20 minute - Устройство Interferential Current Therapy Carbon-silicon Pad Electrodes
