Brief Summary: Cervical radiculopathy is a common and disabling condition involving local pain in the neck region and pain that radiates into the upper limb Recent data suggest that cervical traction may effectively reduce disability and pain with a dose-response relationship The main aim of this study was therefore to evaluate the effect of an intensive cervical traction protocol for patients with cervical radiculopathy on depression insomnia and quality of life 1
Detailed Description: The investigators will conduct a prospective open observational study of thirty-six patients referred by their neurosurgeons for symptoms suggestive of cervical radiculopathy All patients undergo the same treatment a 30-minute cervical traction protocol twice a day for five consecutive days per week for 6 weeks The main objective will be the evaluation of depression insomnia and quality of life The investigators will evaluate at prior to the treatment and at the end of the protocol for depression insomnia and quality of life The primary outcomes will be hospital anxiety and depression scale HADS and Short Form 36 Health Survey SF-36 before and after treatment with spinal traction Thirty-five healthy controls matched with patients for age and sex completed the same questionnaires Traction was added to patients medications which were not enough to control patients symptoms and did not change during traction

Depressive and anxiety symptoms were assessed by an Arabic version of Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale Health-related quality of life was assessed by applying the Arabic version of the Short-Form 36 Health Survey SF-36 Insomnia severity index will be used to evaluate insomnia
