Clinical Trial: Ultrasound-Guided Electrical Dry Needling for Chronic Cervical Radiculopathy: A Randomized Controlled Trial

U.S., Oct. 31 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07907562) titled 'Ultrasound-Guided Electrical Dry Needling for Chronic Cervical Radiculopathy: A Randomized Controlled Trial' on Oct. 24.

Brief Summary: This randomized controlled trial aims to investigate whether ultrasound-guided electrical dry needling with conventional physical therapy is more effective than conventional physical therapy alone in the following outcome measures: disability (Neck Disability Index and Upper Extremity Functional Index-20), average pain over the last 24 hours (Numeric Pain Rating Scale), paraspinal mechanosensitivity (pain-pressure threshold), cervical ipsilateral rotation range-of-motion, and medication intake.
