dc.description.abstractObjectives: To find the prevalence of tech neck syndrome among university students who are on screen users and to find the significant association between tech neck syndrome and reduced chest expansion. Materials and Methods: 100 confirmed cases of tech neck syndrome are taken who use on-screen devices on an average of about 4 or more hours and have significant forward head posture. Costovertebral angle was measured with a goniometer, while chest expansion was measured with an inch tape during the respiration and inspiration phases, and the difference between them was recorded. Results: 54 participants out of 100 confirmed cases of tech neck syndrome have significantly reduced chest expansion, which is the final result of this study, while 46 participants have greater chest expansion, showing that they are normal but still have tech neck syndrome.
