Spinal Manipulation 105: Cervical Spine Clinical Trials / 1 Credit
Learning Objectives:
- Appraise the effectiveness of spinal manipulation therapy, medication and home exercise with advice for patients with acute and subacute neck pain.
- Evaluate the relative effectiveness of high-dose, supervised exercise with and without spinal manipulation and low-dose home exercisefor chronic neck pain.
- Assess the preventive value of spinal manipulative therapy, with and without home exercise, in patients with non-specific chronic neck pain.
- Compare isolated cervical spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) versus a combination of cervical, cervico-thoracic and thoracic SMT in patients with chronic mechanical neck pain.
- Identify predictors of positive outcomes of chiropractic spinal manipulation in neck pain patients and determine whether these predictors are different between acute and chronic patients.
