The deep neck flexor endurance test can be useful in the assessment of neck pain or headache with hypothesized impaired isolated muscle endurance of the deep neck flexors. To conduct the test have your patient in supine hook lying position.
Deep Neck Flexor Endurance Test. Purpose: To assess the endurance of the deep neck flexors (Rectus Capitus Anterior, Rectus Capitus Lateralis, Longus Capitus, Longus Colli - “Muscle specificity in tests of cervical flexor muscle performance”). Test Position: Supine, hooklying.
Objective: Testing isometric endurance of the deep cervical flexors at test stages that the patient is able to achieve with the correct craniocervical flexion action. Equipment : Air-filled pressure sensor (Chattanooga Stabilizer Group Inc., Hixson, TN)

The CCFT tests the neuromuscular control of the control of the deep cervical flexor muscles, the longus capitis, and colli. The test also assesses endurance of the deep cervical flexors and interaction of the deep cervical flexor muscles with the superficial flexors, i.e. the Sternocleidomastoid and the anterior scalene muscles.
1 lut 2011 · Objective. To investigate (1) the average hold time for the deep neck flexors (DNF) endurance test in subjects without neck pain or pathology, and (2) whether different groups of subjects categorized by age, gender, and lifestyle display different hold times.
Correlating the Neck Flexor Endurance Test with the Neck Extensor Endurance Test shows that the neck extensor muscles have significantly higher endurance than the neck flexor muscles in the neck pain population. These results are the same for acute to chronic neck pain patients through different ages. Rehabilitation [edit | edit source]
