Comparison of tendon and muscle belly vibratory stimulation in the treatment of post-stroke upper extremity spasticity: a retrospective observational pilot study

Scientific Reports
Previous studies have reported the effects of vibratory stimulation (VS) therapy in reducing upper extremity spasticity after stroke. However, the effective location of the VS in patients with stroke remains unclear.

The predictive nature of diagnostic nerve blocks for lower extremity spasticity management with botulinum toxin and neurotomy: A systematic review

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction/Objective Diagnostic nerve blocks (DNBs) involve the injection of anesthetic around peripheral nerves to temporarily reduce motor tone. Although they are used clinically to inform spasticity treatment with neurotomy and chemodenervation, there is little research exploring the predictive nature of DNBs.

Therapeutic uses of surface electromyography for rehabilitation: An emerging tool across clinical applications

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Surface electromyography (EMG) is a noninvasive technology that detects voluntary muscle activation and has emerged as a valuable tool for neuromuscular assessment and rehabilitation. By using surface electrodes placed over targeted muscle groups, EMG enables the detection of muscle activity without the discomfort associated with invasive ...

Comparisons of immediate efficacy of cryoneurolysis and phenol neurolysis in spasticity reduction using Modified Ashworth Scale after brain injury: A retrospective cohort study

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Phenol neurolysis and cryoneurolysis are nerve block procedures used to manage localized spasticity through different mechanisms, chemical and cold‐induced nerve blocks, respectively. Both procedures can cause immediate reduction in spasticity. Objective To compare the immediate efficacy of cryoneurolysis versus phenol neurolysis in
