临床试验NCT06616272 (ConCerv)是一项针对脑震荡,颈部疼痛干预性研究试验,目前试验状态为招募中。试验始于2025年8月28日,计划招募40名患者。该研究由匹兹堡大学主导,预计于2025年12月15日完成。试验数据来源于ClinicalTrials.gov,最后更新时间为2025年11月12日
简要概括
Assess the feasibility of recruiting, enrolling and randomizing patients with concussion symptoms and neck pain to receive manual therapy and cervical rehabilitative exercises in addition to standard concussion treatment.

In the usual care workflow provided at the participating concussion clinic, cervical spine rehab is not typically introduced until after week 4. The rationale is that neck pain is often a self-limiting condition that may resolve spontaneously, without the need for specific cervical spine rehab.

This study is chiefly focused on feasibility aims that revolve around developing changes to barriers in workflow issues at the participating concussion clinic, that would allow for earlier introduction of cervical spine rehab.

详细描述
This is a a single site pilot randomized controlled trial consisting of a total of 40 participants with concussion and neck pain, randomized to one of two groups (n=20 per group):

  1. early cervical spine focused treatment combined with standard concussion care.
  2. standard concussion care alone for 4 weeks, followed by delayed introduction (after 4 weeks) of cervical spine focused treatment (which is the usual care workflow at our clinical partner site.)

Both groups will receive the combination of cervical spine focused treatment and standard concussion care; the only variation being the timing of the introduction of the cervical spine care.

The primary endpoint will be 4 weeks from start of cervical rehabilitation intervention. The secondary would be the point of discharge. The duration of active participation in the study will be 8 weeks for the participants.

阳性对照Early cervical spine focused treatment and standard concussion care
The cervical spine focused treatment will start concurrently with the standard care once the participant is randomized to this group. The participants will receive early cervical spine focused treatment 2x/week for 4 weeks. In addition to the cervical spine focused treatment, this group will also receive standard concussion care interventions individualized to the participant's needs 1x/week concurrently during the same 4-week period of time. After 4 weeks, the participant will discontinue the cervical spine focused treatment but may continue with standard concussion care for an additional 4 weeks (maximum total treatment duration is 8 weeks).
Cervical Rehabilitation
* Manual joint mobilization (Grades I-V) of painful and restricted cervical spine segments. * Supine manual cervical traction to stretch and mobilize the cervical spinal tissues. * Manual soft tissue mobilization of the cervical, upper thoracic and/or shoulder muscles. * Passive stretching of hypertonic muscles and active strengthening of hypotonic muscles. * Motor-control and isometric exercises to activate the deep neck flexors.
Standard Concussion Care
Standard Concussion Care interventions are individualized to each patient and their adjudicated profile(s)/moderating factor(s) and may include any/all of the following: * Behavioral regulation * Vestibular rehabilitation * Oculomotor rehabilitation * Exertion rehabilitation * Pharmacological management * Behavioral sleep intervention * \*Cervical spine rehabilitation (the variable of interest in this study) * Psychotherapy
阳性对照Standard concussion care alone followed by delayed cervical spine focused treatment
Participants randomized to the delayed cervical spine focused treatment group will only receive the standard concussion care (individualized to their needs) 1x/week for the initial 4 weeks. At the 4-week timepoint, the cervical spine focused treatment will be added to the standard concussion care at a frequency of twice a week for 4 weeks. Should a participant be cleared for return to activity prior to the end of the 4-week period, cervical spine focused treatment will be suspended. The maximum total treatment duration is 8 weeks; 1x/week for weeks 1-8 for the standard concussion care and 2x/week for weeks 4-8 for the cervical spine focused treatment.

次要终点
结果指标度量标准描述时间框架
Concussion Clinical Profile screen (CP screen)
Patient reported outcome regarding their concussion symptoms. The raw score ranges from 0 to 87. The scale helps identify specific clinical profiles and associated modifiers in concussion patients.
Baseline, 4 week, 8 week
Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS)
Patient reported measure regarding average neck pain over past week. The score range from 0 to 10 where 0 is no pain and 10 is considered the worst pain imaginable.
Baseline, 4 week, 8 week
Neck Disability index (NDI)
Patient reported outcome regarding their neck pain related disability. The scale ranges from 0-50 that are then converted to percentages. The scores are interpreted as: 0-20%: minimal disability; 21-40%: moderate disability; 41-60%: severe disability; and \>60%: complete disability.
Baseline, 4 week, 8 week
Pain, Enjoyment and General Activity Score (PEG)
Patient reported outcome regarding their pain and its interference to enjoyment in life and general activity in the past week. The scale has three individual items that are scored from 0 to 10. The overall score is the average of the three individual item scores rounded to the nearest whole number for clinical use.
Baseline, 4 week, 8 week
