View clinical trials related to Myofascial Pain Syndromes.
Filter by:Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition that causes pain throughout the body, fatigue and other symptoms. Among the most common clinical symptoms are sleep and anxiety disorders. All these symptoms are very disabling and have a negative impact on the quality of life of these people. There is currently no curative treatment for this pathology and current treatments focus their efforts on reducing the intensity of the symptoms. The current approach is mainly pharmacological, with the possible side effects that this entails.
The purpose of this study is verify the effects of a 8 weeks strength training, on balance, neuromuscular performance and symptomatology of fibromyalgia.
Case series, repeated-measures design, pilot study. Adult, female, migraine patients underwent seven Ischemic Compression Myofascial Trigger Points (IC-MTrPs) therapy sessions. The aim of the study is to investigate whether therapy of the shoulder girdle and neck muscles by deactivating MTrPs causes modification of biomechanical and biochemical variables in the blood and reduces headache in people with migraine, improving their quality of life by improving their health. People qualified for the study were divided into 3 groups according to the type of migraine: 1. CM group - patients with chronic migraine 2. EMa group - patients with paroxysmal migraine with aura 3. EMb group - patients with paroxysmal migraine without an aura. All patients underwent 7 interventions in the area of the muscles of the shoulder girdle and neck (by deactivating trigger points) performed every 2 or 3 days. They did not take any headache medications during the treatment period. However, during a migraine attack, they could undergo treatments and research measurements. Biomechanical measurements of the cervical spine, shoulder girdle muscles and blood chemistry were performed before, during and after the patients' therapy. All treatments were performed on the following muscles: - m. trapesius pars descendent (trapezius upper), - m. sternocleidomastoideus (sternocleidomastoid), - m. temporalis (temporal), - m. legator scapulae (levator scapula), - m. supraspinatus (supraspinatus), - m. suboccipitales (suboccipital).
The objective of this cross-sectional, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial is to enhance our understanding of the pain modulation mechanisms in females diagnosed with Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). This study is designed to address several key questions: 1. Is there a discernible difference in the effectiveness of the two prevalent pain modulation approaches, namely Conditioned Pain Modulation (CPM) and Offset Analgesia (OA), in individuals with FMS? To answer this, both FMS patients and an age- and sex-matched healthy control group will engage in these paradigms outside of the MRI scanner. 2. How does Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) influence CPM and OA in FMS patients? Here, the study will observe the performance of FMS patients in both paradigms after receiving treatments with THC and a placebo, conducted outside the scanner. 3. What neural alterations in pain modulation circuits are triggered by THC? To investigate this, FMS patients will undergo the OA test inside the MRI scanner following both THC and placebo treatments. 4. How does THC affect resting-state brain function in FMS patients? This part of the study involves resting-state brain scans to measure changes in functional connectivity following treatments with THC and a placebo.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of rozanolixizumab to treat adult study participants with severe fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS).
The aim of this study is to analyze the effects of a single-session of Radiofrequency in patients with Fibromyalgia in comparison to a placebo group.
Myofascial pain (MPS) is the leading cause of chronic and persistent regional pain, affecting as many as 85% of the general population. A variety of treatment methods for myofascial pain have been investigated, including injection of saline, local anesthetics and steroids, dry needle, mini-scalpel, rich platelet plasma and radiofrequency ablation. Ultrasound guided dry needle (DN) and pulsed radiofrequency ablation (PRF) of the trigger point have been considered as two effective and promising treatments for myofascial pain. As far as searched, we failed to identify any study comparing the effects of DN and PRF in myofascial pain patients.
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 this study; to investigate the effects of neural therapy and kinesio taping treatments on pain, functional status and quality of life in women with fibromyalgia.
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.
