Arm position sense test in cervical radiculopathy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests how well people with cervical radiculopathy (a pinched nerve in the neck causing arm pain) can sense their arm's position. It aims to understand if this condition affects your body's awareness of where your arm is in space.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You have arm pain from a pinched nerve in your neck, confirmed by a doctor and an MRI showing a disc problem.
- You have not had neck physical therapy in the past year.
- You do not have other nerve problems, diabetes, fibromyalgia, or vitamin deficiencies that could affect your sense of position.
- You are not pregnant, and you agree to join the study.

This study looks at how well neck muscles can hold a position and how accurately you can sense your head's position. It is for people with cervical radiculopathy—a condition where a pinched nerve in the neck causes pain that travels down the arm.
This study looks at how forward head posture affects your sense of body position and back muscle strength in people with neck pain that travels to one arm. It may help understand better ways to treat neck and arm pain.
This study looks at how cervical disc herniation affects sensation and daily function. If you have had neck pain for at least 3 months and have been diagnosed with cervical disc herniation, researchers want to compare your results to people without neck pain.
This trial tests whether combining kinesio tape with specific neck exercises can improve your sense of position and movement (proprioception) if you have a pinched nerve in your neck that causes pain, tingling, or numbness down one arm.
This study looks at how neck pain and muscle weakness affect the way people walk when they have a pinched nerve in the neck. It aims to find connections that could help with treatment.
This trial tests a specific neck movement retraining program to improve joint awareness and daily function in people with chronic cervical radiculopathy (nerve irritation in the neck). It may help if you have had neck pain that goes into your arm for at least 3 months.
