Sponsor's own description

This study aimed to compare the efficacy of online exercise therapy with conventional exercise therapy on pain, function, psychological status and work efficiency of young adults with chronic neck pain. A randomized clinical trial recruiting 39 university students with self-reported chronic neck pain was conducted. Participants were randomly assigned into the experimental group receiving online exercise therapy and the active control group receiving conventional exercise therapy. Participants in both groups completed the same exercise program 3 sessions per week for 6 weeks, with either face-to-face or online mode of delivery by physiotherapists. The pain level was assessed using visual analogue scale (VAS) based on average and at maximum intensity. Neck function and work limitations were assessed by the Neck Disability Index (NDI) and Work Limitations Questionnaire (WLQ) respectively. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and its subscales (HADS-A and HADS-D) were used to evaluate the overall symptoms, levels of anxiety and depression respectively. Participants were assessed at baseline and at 6 weeks while the changes in WLQ were assessed biweekly. It is hypothesized that, young adults with chronic neck pain, both the online and conventional exercise interventions could improve their pain level, neck disability, anxiety state and work efficiency, and the online exercise intervention appeared feasible as an alternative treatment option for them.
