Ultrasound‐Guided Liposomal vs. Conventional Bupivacaine Erector Spinae Plane Block Plus Gabapentin for Postherpetic Neuralgia

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to compare efficacy and safety of ultrasound‐guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) using liposomal (LB) versus conventional bupivacaine (CB), each plus standardized gabapentin, in patients with postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). A total of 116 PHN patients were randomized to ESPB‐LB or ESPB‐CB; both groups received standardized ...

“Slow walking with turns” increases quadriceps and erector spinae muscle activity

open access: yesJournal of Physical Therapy Science, 2017
[Purpose] To maintain an independent lifestyle, older adults should improve muscle strength and mass, or aerobic capacity. A new exercise pattern, called slow walking with turns, which incorporates turning as an extra load additional to walking. The purpose of this study was to measure oxygen consumption during exercise and muscle activity while ...

Combined Use of EMG and Muscle Ultrasound for the Evaluation of Scapular Winging

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Scapular winging occurs as an abnormal protrusion of the scapula due to nerve injury, muscle weakness, bone, or joint pathology. The main muscular stabilizers of the scapula include the serratus anterior, trapezius, rhomboid major and minor, levator scapulae, and pectoralis minor.

Kinesio Taping Applied to Lumbar Muscles in Static Lumbar Flexion

open access: yesPhysical Treatments, 2015
Purpose: In approaching full trunk flexion (75%-80% of full flexion), myoelectric activity of lumbar erector spinae muscles is reduced or silenced; this response is known as flexion-relaxation phenomenon (FRP).
