About this study

Neck pain is a major public health concern that has been extensively studied in adults but not in children and adolescents. Mechanical neck pain became prevalent among children and adolescents, and has its impacts on functional ability.

This study is aiming to investigate the correlation between Cervical spine sagittal alignment parameter (cranio-cervical angle) and functional disability in preparatory school students with mechanical cervical pain.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. ● cervico cranial angle by X-ray device

    ● X-ray device: (Toshiba Rotande unite model DRX3724 HD/2009 will be used.

    Measured: one hour

  2. Functional neck status

    Functional status will be evaluated by Neck Disability index (NDI).

    Measured: one hour
