Condition: Upper Limb Overuse Syndrome · Sponsor: University of Faisalabad
Upper-limb overuse syndrome (ULOS) often arises from repetitive loading, altering cervical biomechanics and increased median-nerve mechano sensitivity. Elongation longitudinal decoaptation ostéo-articulaire (ELDOA) at C5-C6 improves segmental decompression and neural sliding, while Active isolated stretching (AIS) enhances soft tissue elasticity and neuro dynamic glide. Currently no direct comparison exists between these two methods in literature. Study aims to compare ELDOA (C5-C6 specific) and AIS in patients with ULOS for checking effects on median nerve mobility and pain. This research will be conducted as a randomized clinical trial involving 84 participants (42 in each group). Adults aged 20-50 years with diagnosis of ULOS, symptom duration 3- months (12 weeks) will be included in the study. While Neurological or rheumatologic conditions, recent corticosteroid injections, recent cervical or major upper limb surgery, and ongoing neural mobilization-focused physical therapy are among the exclusions. After meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria and obtaining written and verbal consent from the participants. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the AIS or ELDOA groups and will receive 3 sessions per week for 3 weeks with baseline hot pack. Group A will perform diaphragmatic breathing with ELDOA targeting C5-C6, whereas Group B will engage in AIS on muscles that cause median-nerve tension. Pain intensity, upper limb function and median nerve mobility are o…
