Roughly, κ decreases exponentially with increasing porosity and linearly with decreasing neck width, and is not temperature sensitive in the range of 300 K–700 K.
Closure of opened laminae, temporary nerve root deficit, decreased neck range of motion and axial pain are the main complications of laminoplasty.
Häkkinen A, Ylinen J, Rinta-Keturi M, Talvitie U, Kautiainen H, Rissanen A. Decreased neck muscle strength is highly associated with pain in cervical dystonia patients treated with botulinum toxin injections.
Regular physical exercise was associated with decreased neck pain (OR=0.37; 95% CI 0.14 to 1.00).
Radiation may decrease neck ROM, especially if they already have limited movement.
Also, treatments aimed at improving oculomotor function have been found to be useful in decreasing neck pain and neck pain-related disability [ 69, 70].
Patients with tumors or decreased neck range of motion may require a device with more finesse and maneuverability, such as a flexible fiberoptic broncho-scope.
20, 21, 22– 25 Thus, finding interventions to decrease neck pain that may also be beneficial for health-related quality of life would be very valuable.
Before starting any clinical work, the operator must adjust the arm rest which will improve elbow support and decrease neck and shoulder fatigue.
Following FB procedures, both WAD groups demonstrated generalized hypersensitivity to all sensory tests, decreased neck ROM and increased superficial muscle activity with the CCFT compared to controls (p < 0.05).
