The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of cervical stabilization exercises on cervical positioning error in spondyloarthritis patients.
The position sense and kinesthesia are defined as proprioception. In other words, proprioception allows being aware of positions of the body parts in the space. Muscles, tendons, joint capsules are source of proprioception.
Possible damage to these structures due to inflammation may cause diminished proprioception sense. Decreased proprioception was shown for cervical region in axial spondyloarthritis patients in a recent study.
Different exercise programs may help increasing proprioception. Therefore, the aim of the present study is investigate the effects of cervical stabilization exercises on cervical proprioception accuracy.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Exercise Group | Experimental | A progressive home-based cervical stabilization exercise program was delivered by sending messages and video instructions via a freeware and cross-platform messaging service (WhatsApp Messenger) in a weekly basis. |
|
| Control Group | No Intervention | Patients in control group did not receive any exercise intervention. |
| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Exercise | Other | Home exercises were performed three times in a week for six weeks. Home exercises included range of motion exercises, coordination exercises and strengthening exercises. Repeats and durations of the exercises increased every week to provide progression. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in Cervical Proprioception Accuracy | Cervical position error method was used to determine the cervical proprioception accuracy. Cervical position error was evaluated in flexion, extension, rotation and lateral flexion directions and was calculated using a special formula. The results were analyzed as angles. | At baseline and six weeks later |
