Cryotherapy, double-modality therapy (DMT), musculoskeletal injury (MSI), Phonophoresis, repetitive strain injury (RSI).
BACKGROUND & INTRODUCTION: RSI the only one largest class of workplace injuries and is amenable for almost 30% of all workers in different sectors like Athlete and academician. RSI is a general term used to describe the pain felt in muscles, nerves and tendons(low back pain and neck pain) caused by repetitive movement and overuse. The most generic term used to depict these disorders is MSI. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study is to evaluate therapeutic efficacy of DMT in the management of RSI. METHODOLOGY: A. DATA SOURCE & LITERATURE SOURCE: relevant articles were identified by searching from: PUBMED, cohrane literacy, Google scholar. B. DATA SELECTION: Articles of DMT (Cryotherapy & Phonophoresis) therapy in management of RSI, the randomized control trial, systemic review with meta-analysis are included age group range 18-70 years with variable session of treatment (1-4 weeks). Remedy was administered on disjunctive days and discharges were made when subjects were pain free. RESULTS: More than 45 articles are on DMT in which 10articles are matched with Phonophoresis and Cryotherapy in the management of RSI. CONCLUSION: The perusal has unwavering therapeutic efficacy of DMT, but it was not superior to the single remedy protocol of Phonophoresis or Cryotherapy. However, it might take fewer sessions in the DMT group to treat and make more than 90% of the patient’s pain free and fit to return to active performance.
