Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lumbopelvic pain (LPP) is associated with altered abdominal muscle function yet few tools exist that enable physiotherapists to identify these changes in a clinical setting. Ultrasound imaging (USI) has potential however its ability to detect altered abdominal muscle function and associated changes in bladder base (BB) position during tests common to a physiotherapy assessment of LPP, has yet to be established. The aims of this research were to determine the validity and reliability of USI technique in a clinical setting, investigate the relationship between changes in abdominal muscle thickness and electrical activity, and compare sonographic characteristics of the abdominal wall, and BB position, between persons with and without LPP. Validity results indicate that 5o-10o of angular, and 8mm of inward/outward transducer motion don't produce measurement error, and that transducer motion can be kept within these thresholds during two commonly used clinical tests; the Active Straight Leg Raise (ASLR) test and Abdominal Drawing in Manoeuvre (ADIM). Regarding reliability, measurements of abdominal muscle thickness, inter-recti distance (IRD) and BB position (healthy and LPP cohorts) during the ASLR and ADIM were good to excellent (within day ICC; 0.84-0.99, between day; 0.80-0.99). Crosscorrelation functions examining the relationship between changes in abdominal muscle thickness and activity during an ASLR and ADIM were low (r=0.22-0.40), and associated time lags large (-0.44-1.15s), suggesting that changes in muscle thickness represent more than changes in electrical activity. On comparing sonographic features between cohorts a series of features were identified that differed between the groups. Specifically, the LPP cohort had a thinner rectus abdominis (p

Download or read book Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Guided Regenerative Medicine written by Yasser El Miedany and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-08-17 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book examines recent developments in regenerative medicine and the use of musculoskeletal ultrasound. Musculoskeletal regeneration has become a prominent research topic, no doubt due to the sociological and economic pressures imposed by the current ageing population. The ever expanding role of regenerative medicine and the identification as well as characterization of stem cells have introduced a major paradigm shift in the field of musculoskeletal and sports medicine as well as orthopaedic surgery. Whereas in the past, diseased tissue was replaced with allograft material, current trends in research revolve around regenerating damaged tissue. Specifically, regenerative medicine stands in contrast to the standard treatment modalities which impair the body’s natural abilities to facilitate endogenous repair mechanisms such as anti-inflammatory drugs; or destructive modalities (e.g., radiotherapy, nerve ablation, injections of botulinum toxin) and surgical interventions that permanently alter the functioning of a joint, bone or spine. When compared to other allopathic options (including knee and hip arthroplasty with a 90-day mortality rate of 0.7%), regenerative medicine treatment modalities have a lower incidence of adverse events with a growing body of statistically significant medical literature illustrating both their safety and efficacy. Focusing on the major values of regenerative medicine, this book with its 21 chapters is expected to fill an important void in the current literature. It will take that extra step to guide you in your day to day clinical practice. Featuring contributions from a large international group of leaders in regenerative medicine and musculoskeletal ultrasonography, this book is an authoritative reference for rheumatologists, physiatrists, sonographers, radiologists, physiotherapists and orthopaedic specialists.

Download or read book Spinal Control The Rehabilitation of Back Pain written by Paul W. Hodges and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2013-08-19 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, international scientific and clinical leaders have collaborated to present this exclusive book which integrates state-of-the art engineering concepts of spine control into clinically relevant approaches for the rehabilitation of low back pain. Spinal Control identifies the scope of the problem around motor control of the spine and pelvis while defining key terminology and methods as well as placing experimental findings into context. Spinal Control also includes contributions that put forward different sides of critical arguments (e.g. whether or not to focus on training the deep muscles of the trunk) and then bring these arguments together to help both scientists and clinicians better understand the convergences and divergences within this field. On the one hand, this book seeks to resolve many of the issues that are debated in existing literature, while on the other, its contributing opinion leaders present current best practice on how to study the questions facing the field of spine control, and then go on to outline the key directions for future research. Spinal Control – the only expert resource which provides a trusted, consensus approach to low back pain rehabilitation for both clinicians and scientists alike! - Covers the most important issues in spine control research - Illustrates the clinical relevance of research and how this is or can be applied in clinical practice - Edited and written by world leading experts, contributing first class content on different aspects of spine control - Chapters that bring together the expertise of these world leaders on topics such as neuromotor mechanisms of spine control, proprioception, subgrouping in back pain and modelling spine stability - An extensive and illustrated clinical consensus chapter that brings together the philosophies of clinical opinion leaders for the first time
