Ultrasonographic Muscles and Fascia Measurement With Myofascial Pain Syndrome

Bursa Yuksek Ihtisas Training and Research Hospital60 enrolled

Overview

Pathologies in the trapezius muscle and rhomboid muscle are important in the course and treatment of the disease in patients with myofascial pain syndrome.

In this study, the role of the thickness of these muscles and the shift during movement in the activity and diagnosis of the disease in myofascial pain syndrome will be investigated.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Trapezius muscle and rhomboid muscle thickness

Trapezius and rhomboid muscle thickness and fascial thickness measurement will be made by ultrasonography at rest.

Time frame: 20 minute

fascial sliding

Measurements of the amount of slip measured during the movement of the fascial structures during shoulder and arm movements. ultrasonography M-mode measurements Arm from the shoulder joint, cervical lateral flexion, cervical anterior flexion, shoulder elevation

Time frame: 20 minute

Secondary Outcomes

VAS

visual analog scale (VAS) :for pain. 0: no pain at all, 10: worst pain imaginable

Time frame: 6 th month

NPDS

Neck and Disability Scale (NPDS): The 20-item Neck and Disability Scale is scored on a 10 cm visual analog scale and ranges from 0 to 5 points. The test aims to measure the impact of neck pain on quality of life, functionality, and disability.

Time frame: 6th month

SF-12

Short Form 12 (SF-12): The SF-12 form, which includes scales to assess physical (SF-12-PCS) and mental (SF-12-MCS) status, was created by taking 12 different items from 8 other titles of the SF-36, which is the extended version. Interpretation of Scores: Utilize the norm-based scoring system to interpret PCS and MCS scores, with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10 in the general population. Scores above 50 indicate a better-than-average health-related quality of life, while scores below 50 suggest below-average health.

Time frame: 6th month
