Filter by:Ultrasound Guided Versus Non-Guided Prolotherapy for Treatment of Internal Derangement of Temporomandibular joint. Rationale for conducting the research: The most critical cause for guided prolotherapy is to specify the accurate location of glenoid fossa and the disc space while prolotherapy procedure, and to adjust the needle insertion to according to articular eminence, mandibular condyle, and intra-articular space as anatomical variations. The vibration of ultrasound waves generates a heat so there is a thermal effective for prolotherapy effusion in the TMJ space.
The aim of the study is to test the hypothesis that oral taking of baclofen in therapeutic dosage for 60 days is equally effective as injection of botulinum toxin type "A" in the area of trigger points of the pelvic muscles.
This is a parallel-group randomised clinical trial: Primary purpose: To analyse the clinical changes produced by two different physiotherapy treatments (Intratissue Percutaneous Electrolysis and Dry Needling) for myofascial trigger points in the infraspinatus muscle in subjects with non-specific shoulder pain. Hypothesis: A physiotherapy treatment including Intratissue Percutaneous Electrolysis therapy present greater benefits in terms of pain reduction and increased mobility and functionality rather than Dry Needling treatment in subjects with non-specific shoulder pain. The intervention consisted of 3 treatment sessions, different according to the group, once a week. Seven evaluation points were performed, two pre-intervention evaluations one week apart and after the second one the first treatment session was performed. The third and fourth assessments were prior to the second and third treatment sessions, one week apart. The fifth, sixth and seventh assessments were conducted one week, one month and two months after the last treatment session in each group.
The investigators aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of bilateral erector spina plane block application in myofascial pain syndrome.
Temporomandibular disorders are common in the general population, the myogenic subtype being the most frequent. Central sensitization seems to be present in this pathology, with a decreased pain pressure threshold observed in both local and remote areas. The best evidence-based treatment consists in combining education, manual therapy and therapeutic exercise in both temporomandibular and cervical regions. Aerobic exercise showed to be effective in subjects with chronic pain and central sensitization, by inducing an hypoalgesic effect. However, there isn't investigation about the effects of aerobic exercise in subjects with myogenic temporomandibular disorders and central sensitization. Thus, the aim of the pilot study is to determine if adding aerobic exercise to an effective physical therapy programme is more effective than physical therapy alone to improve pain pressure threshold in subjects with myogenic temporomandibular disorders and suspicion of central sensitization.
In this double-blinded, prospective randomized sham controlled multi centered study, the aim was to investigate the efficacy of EDF technique on pain intensity, number of active TrPs, cervical ROM and disability levels in patients with MPS on upper trapezius (UT) muscle.180 patients were randomly allocated to kinesio taping (KT) group or sham group. Applications were done two times 1 week apart. VAS-pain scores, disability scores , cervical ROM angles and number of trigger points were evaluated as outcome parameters. Vas-pain scores and number of trigger points were assessed at baseline, after 1 week and after 2 weeks (at the end of the study). Cervical ROM angles and disability (measured by Neck Pain Disability Scale) were assessed at baseline and at the end of the study. Both groups received home exercise program. As a result application of KT with EDF technique to the UT muscle provided a significant improvement in pain level, disability, number of active TrPs and cervical ROM angles and found superior to sham application.
Pathologies in the trapezius muscle and rhomboid muscle are important in the course and treatment of the disease in patients with myofascial pain syndrome.
Compare efficiency between repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation and dry needling in patient with upper trapezius myofascial pain syndrome.
In this study, the investigators planned to compare local anesthetic injection added to stretching exercise, ozone injection treatment added to stretching exercise, and only stretching exercise in patients with upper trapezius muscle myofascial pain syndrome.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of Kinesio taping on myofascial pain syndrome post neck dissection surgery.
