Efficacy of postural exercises to reduce cervical pain in office workers.
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2018-01-27) Ordoñez Julcarima, Edith; Villegas Barturén, Jessica Elizabeth; Pretell Aguilar, Rosa Maria
Objective: To systematically analyze the evidence on the effectiveness of postural exercises to reduce cervicalgia in office workers. Materials and methods: A systematic observational and retrospective review, the search was restricted to articles with full text, and selected articles underwent a critical reading, using the Grade System evaluation to identify their level of evidence. Results: In the final selection, 10 articles were chosen, of which 40% (4/10) came from Canada, 20% (2/10) from Australia, and 10% from Thailand, the United Kingdom, Spain, and Colombia, respectively. The results show that 50% (5/10) of the articles analyzed systematically indicate that postural exercises are effective in reducing cervicalgia in office workers, 20% (2/10) show that postural exercises are not effective in reducing cervicalgia in office workers, and 30% (3/10) of the studies report that more research should be conducted before drawing firm conclusions about the effectiveness of postural exercises for reducing cervicalgia in office workers. Conclusions: It was found that 5 out of 10 systematically reviewed scientific articles demonstrate the effectiveness of postural exercises in reducing cervicalgia in office workers.
