Correlations between Craniovertebral Angle(CVA) and Cardiorespiratory Function in Young Adults [PDF]

Journal of the Korean Society of Physical Medicine, 2014
For this study, the students of D college were questioned and 50 members of D college were participated in our research.. Side-view pictures of each subject were taken in standing positions, in order to assess forward head posture (FHP) by measuring the craniovertebral angle. The craniovertebral angle was measured as the angle between a horizontal line

Reliability of photogrammetric evaluation of the craniovertebral angle, swayback posture, and knee hyperextension in university students. [PDF]

J Phys Ther Sci
[Purpose] Forward head posture (FHP), swayback posture, and knee hyperextension are musculoskeletal conditions that can lead to pain, dysfunction, and reduced quality of life. Accurate assessment of these postural deviations is critical for prevention and treatment.

Validity and Reliability of Electronic Head Posture Instrument for Measurement of Cranio-Horizontal Angle, Craniovertebral Angle and Sagittal Shoulder Angle

Indian Journal of Public Health Research & Development, 2020
Background: Forward head posture (FHP) means that the head is in an anterior position in relation to the postural line and it is considered to coexist with hyperextension of upper cervical spine, flattening of lower cervical spine, rounding of the upper back and elevation and protraction of the shoulders.

Measurement of craniovertebral angle with Electronic Head Posture Instrument: Criterion validity

The Journal of Rehabilitation Research and Development, 2010
This study evaluated the criterion-related validity of the Electronic Head Posture Instrument (EHPI) in measuring the craniovertebral (CV) angle by correlating the measurements of CV angle with anterior head translation (AHT) in lateral cervical radiographs.

Reliability of Image J. Software to Evaluate the Craniovertebral Angle in Participants with and without Neck Pain. [PDF]

Arch Bone Jt Surg
Forward head posture (FHP) is one of the most common postural disorders affecting the head and neck region, typically assessed by measuring the craniovertebral angle (CVA). Selecting an appropriate tool for quantifying this angle is crucial. The primary aim of the present study was to evaluate the reliability of ImageJ software in assessing the CVA in ...

Craniovertebral angle and neck disability among university students with forward head posture: a comparative study of scapular retraction exercises versus McKenzie method [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Forward head posture (FHP), commonly described as “text neck,” is an increasingly prevalent postural deviation linked to extended digital device use. It leads to muscular imbalance, cervical discomfort, and impaired daily function.
