This prospective study aims to evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound-guided pulsed radiofrequency of suprascapular nerve for chronic shoulder pain in a clinical setting. Methods:Therapeutic efficacy was evaluated
We will apply ultrasound gel to your skin to reduce friction and allow for better transmission of the ultrasound waves. Despite the deep-tissue heat applied during the therapy, you typically will feel little or no heat at all. Parameters Item name Ulatrosound ...
December 10, 2010 (Chicago, Illinois) — Injecting fluid into the shoulder joint using ultrasound to guide its placement is an effective way of relieving the pain of frozen shoulder, according to a study presented in a poster session here at the Radiological Society of North America 96th Scient...
In the management ofrheumatic diseases,ultrasound therapy(US) is commonly used as an adjunctive therapy for its proposed effects on inflammation as well as forpain relief. It uses sound waves at very high frequencies (0.5-5MHz) to produce mechanical vibration within the tissues. If applied in hi...
effects, they will be regarded as confounding factors. Consequently, subgroup analysis or multivariate analysis (eg, ANCOVA or multiple regression models) will be conducted. Effect sizes, adjusted R² (for regression), and 95% confidence intervals will be reported for all model parameters. ...
The inconsistency and heterogeneity between studies might be attributed to differences in the parameters used for low-intensity ultrasound, treatment course, and pain duration. In two studies conducted by Rigby et al. and Sarrafzadeh et al., two distinct intensity parameters of 0.132 W/cm2 and ...
Purpose: Normal pregnancy is associated with profound cardiovascular adaptation which is necessary for normal foetal growth and development. However, relatively little information is available on the changes of central hemodynamic, pulse wave velocity, augmentation index and other arterial parameters during ...
The American Association of Neuromuscular and Electrodiagnostic Medicine (AANEM) has published recommendations for the incorporation of ultrasound as a complementary tool in the diagnosis of neuromuscular disease [73••] and the AIUM has recently developed practice parameters for credentialing the use...
parameters, such aspulsatility index(PI), in the cerebral arteries can predict well-being, brain injury and long-term neurodevelopmental outcome in infants and fetuses [3,4]. One reason for this lack of evidence could be that reducing the Doppler spectrum into single parameters removes significant...
To compare serratus anterior and lower trapezius muscle thickness between swimmers with and without current shoulder pain, and between sides when measured by real-time ultrasound imaging. Design A single blinded age and gender-matched case-control study with 26 symptomatic and 26 asymptomatic recreationa...
