Trigger Point Injections

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North America, 2022
Myofascial pain and myofascial pain syndromes are among some of the most common acute and chronic pain conditions. Many interventional procedures can be performed in both an acute and chronic pain setting to address myofascial pain syndromes. Trigger point injections can be performed with or without imaging guidance such as fluoroscopy and ultrasound ...

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.

Trigger Points and Classical Acupuncture Points

Deutsche Zeitschrift für Akupunktur, 2008

Neurobiology of the myofascial trigger point

Baillière's Clinical Rheumatology, 1994
The clinical phenomenon of the MTrP is accessible to any clinician who takes the time to learn to palpate skeletal muscle gently and carefully, and who is willing to learn the functional anatomy necessary to understand the regional spread of MTrPs through functional muscle units (Travell and Simons, 1992). Yet despite the years of clinical study of MPS,
