Myofascial Trigger Points

Anesthesiology Clinics, 2007
Painful conditions of the musculoskeletal system, including myofascial pain syndrome, constitute some of the most important chronic problems encountered in a clinical practice. A myofascial trigger points is a hyperirritable spot, usually within a taut band of skeletal muscle, which is painful on compression and can give rise to characteristic referred

Latent Myofascial Trigger Points

Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2011
A latent myofascial trigger point (MTP) is defined as a focus of hyperirritability in a muscle taut band that is clinically associated with local twitch response and tenderness and/or referred pain upon manual examination. Current evidence suggests that the temporal profile of the spontaneous electrical activity at an MTP is similar to focal muscle ...

Myofascial Pain Syndromes–Trigger Points

Journal of Musculoskeletal Pain, 2004
Four articles this quarter present major progress in new experimental data. Hou et al. demonstrated in rabbits that motor endplate potentials [spontaneous electrical activity] of trigger spots are partially dependent on increased calcium channel permeability. Delaney et al.

Sympathetic hyperinnervation in myofascial trigger points

Medical Hypotheses, 2020
To evaluate the local distribution and activity of sympathetic nerves in myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) and explore the pathological mechanism of myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) using a rat model of disease.MPS was modeled in the model group (MG) by a combination of blunt trauma and eccentric exercise in Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 8).

Myofascial Trigger Point Pain Syndromes

Seminars in Neurology, 2016
Myofascial pain syndromes caused by trigger points (TrPs) in muscle are a common cause of local and generalized pain. Trigger points are hyperirritable zones in contracted bands of muscle, thought to be caused by muscle overload or stress. Stress TrPs have characteristic electromyographic features, and can be visualized with ultrasound and magnetic ...
