This study aimed to identify the effect of cervical stabilization exercise with visual feedback on the craniovertebral angle and proprioception in subjects with forward head posture.
Thirty healthy adults were recruited in the study. Participants were randomly assigned to the stabilization exercise with visual feedback (SE-VF) group (N = 15) or stabilization exercise group (N = 15). The SE-VF group performed cervical stabilization exercise while sitting on a chair without a backrest and checking their side profile in real-time via a monitor 3-m away. The stabilization exercise group performed the same cervical stabilization exercise as the SE-VF group but without visual feedback. Craniovertebral angle (CVA) was measured to quantify forward head posture, and the proprioception of the subjects was evaluated.
There was a significant interaction between group and time in CVA and proprioception (P < .05). Additionally, there was no significant difference pre-intervention between the groups (P > .05); however, there was a significant difference post-intervention (P < .05) in CVA and proprioception.
The findings of this study showed that the cervical stabilization exercise with visual feedback was effective for the proprioception of subjects. Moreover, the results suggest that visual feedback is effective in cervical stabilization exercise.
本研究旨在确定颈椎稳定运动与视觉反馈对探颈患者颅颈角和本体感觉的影响。
本研究纳入了 30 名健康成年人。参与者被随机分配到颈椎稳定运动与视觉反馈组（SE-VF 组，N=15）或颈椎稳定运动组（SE 组，N=15）。SE-VF 组在无靠背的椅子上坐直，通过 3 米外的显示器实时检查自己的侧貌，进行颈椎稳定运动。SE 组与 SE-VF 组进行相同的颈椎稳定运动，但没有视觉反馈。通过测量颅颈角（CVA）来量化探颈，评估受试者的本体感觉。
CVA 和本体感觉在组间和时间上存在显著交互作用（P<0.05）。此外，组间在干预前无显著差异（P>0.05）；然而，干预后 CVA 和本体感觉有显著差异（P<0.05）。
本研究结果表明，颈椎稳定运动与视觉反馈对改善受试者的本体感觉有效。此外，结果提示视觉反馈在颈椎稳定运动中有效。
