Efficacy of Physical Therapy Intervention in Cervical Angina Patients at Jerash University Office Employees, "Randomized Clinical Trail".
Sponsor: South Valley University
Summary
Cervicogenic angina (CA) is defined as paroxysmal angina- like pain that originates from the disorders of the cervical spine or other neck structures. Because CA mimics typical cardiac angina, symptoms in the elderly with cervical spondylosis are more frequently misdiagnosed Nakajima H, 2006. Patients with CA may have suffered symptoms for longer periods of time and seen several clinicians due to conflicting cardiac exams. Clinicians and patients are unaware that CA symptoms are stemming from cervical spine disorders. However, the mechanism of pain occurrence in patients with CA remains unclear.
