Randomized clinical trial.To determine the effects of trigger point dry needling (TrPDN) on neck pain, widespread pressure pain sensitivity, and cervical range motion in patients with acute mechanical active points upper trapezius muscle.TrPDN seems to be effective for decreasing individuals upper-quadrant syndromes. Potential TrPDN sensitization are needed. Methods Seventeen (53% female) were randomly assigned 1 2 groups: a single session or no intervention (waiting list). Pressure...
Study Design Randomized clinical study. Objectives To compare the effects of trigger point (TrP) dry needling (DN) and TrP manual therapy (MT) on pain, function, pressure pain sensitivity, cervical range motion in subjects with chronic mechanical neck pain. Background Recent evidence suggests that DN could be effective treatment However, no studies have directly compared outcomes MT this population. Methods Ninety-four patients (mean ± SD age, 31 3 years; 66% female) were randomized into a...
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Multicentre studies focussing on specific long-term post-COVID-19 symptoms are scarce. <b><i>Objective:</i></b> The aim of this study was to determine the levels fatigue and dyspnoea, repercussions daily life activities, risk factors associated with or dyspnoea in COVID-19 survivors at long term after hospital discharge. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Age, gender, height, weight, hospitalization,...
Abstract This study investigated the prevalence of long-term musculoskeletal post-COVID pain and their risk factors in a large cohort COVID-19 survivors. A multicenter including patients hospitalised because 5 hospitals Madrid (Spain) during first wave pandemic was conducted. Hospitalisation clinical data were collected from medical records. Patients scheduled for telephone interview after hospital discharge collecting about pain. Anxiety/depressive levels sleep quality likewise assessed....
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus is associated with psychological/emotional disturbances. This study aimed to assess internal consistency, reliability, and construct validity of the Hospital Anxiety Depressive Scale (HADS), as a patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) for evaluating emotional consequences SARS-CoV-2 in hospitalized COVID-19 survivors long COVID. The LONG-COVID-EXP-CM multicenter cohort including patients by during first wave pandemic five...
Study Design Randomized clinical trial. Objectives To compare the effects of cervical versus thoracic thrust manipulation in patients with bilateral chronic mechanical neck pain on pressure sensitivity, pain, and range motion (CROM). Background Evidence suggests that spinal interventions can stimulate descending inhibitory pathways. our knowledge, no study has investigated neurophysiological individuals including widespread changes sensitivity. Methods Ninety (51% female) were randomly...
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate bilateral differences in the cross-sectional area (CSA) and shape ratio longus colli muscle between subjects with mechanical neck pain healthy controls. Design: A case-control cohort conducted. Bilateral ultrasound images at thyroid (C5-C6) level were conducted 20 patients chronic controls by an assessor blinded subjects' condition. CSA, anterior-posterior dimension (APD), lateral (LD), (LD/APD) measured. Results: intraclass correlation...
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the effects dry needling (DN) versus pressure release over scalene muscle trigger points (TrPs) on pain, related disability, and inspiratory vital capacity in individuals with neck pain. Methods: In randomized, single-blind trial, 30 patients mechanical pain active TrPs musculature were randomly allocated point (TrP-DN; n = 15) or (n groups. DN group received a single session anterior muscles, TrP same lasting s. primary outcome intensity as...
This study compared differences in the presence of post-COVID symptoms among vaccinated and non-vaccinated COVID-19 survivors requiring hospitalization due to Delta (B.1.617.2) variant. cohort included hospitalized subjects who had survived SARS-CoV-2 infection (Delta variant) from July August 2021 an urban hospital Madrid, Spain. Individuals were classified as if they received full administration (i.e., two doses) BNT162b2 ("Pfizer-BioNTech") vaccines. Other vaccines excluded. Those with...
Our aim was to describe the referred pain pattern and areas from trigger points (TrPs) in head, neck, shoulder muscles children with chronic tension type headache (CTTH). Fifty (14 boys, 36 girls, mean age: 8 ± 2) CTTH 50 age- sex- matched participated. Bilateral temporalis, masseter, superior oblique, upper trapezius, sternocleidomastoid, suboccipital, levator scapula were examined for TrPs by an assessor blinded children's condition. identified palpation considered active when local pains...
