CLINICAL ASSESSMENT OF THE CERVICAL EXTENSOR MUSCLES DYSFUNCTIONS: A SCOPING REVIEW
Neck pain is a major cause of disability worldwide and frequently associated
with changes in muscle function. These changes, which may persist after
the symptoms have disappeared, could explain recurrent or chronic neck
pain. Given the functional alterations of the cervical extensors muscles
(CEM) observed in subjects with neck pain1
, a review of the clinical ways to
highlight these deficits is relevant. To identify the various clinical tests
assessing CEM dysfunctions in patients with chronic neck pain (CNP)
