NCT ID NCT07319156
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at how well people with cervical radiculopathy (a pinched nerve in the neck) can sense where their arm is in space. Researchers will compare 58 patients to healthy volunteers using a reaching test on a wall chart. The goal is to see if nerve compression affects arm position awareness and how it relates to pain and function.
