Ultrasound-guided gluteal nerves electrical stimulation to enhance strength and power in individuals with chronic knee pain: a randomized controlled pilot trial
Introduction: Various pathophysiological contexts can be accompanied by weakness, arthrogenic muscle inhibition, and even disability. In this scenario, peripheral nerve stimulation has been studied not only for pain management but also for the improvement of neuromuscular parameters. For this purpos...

| Sumario: | Introduction: Various pathophysiological contexts can be accompanied by weakness, arthrogenic muscle inhibition, and even disability. In this scenario, peripheral nerve stimulation has been studied not only for pain management but also for the improvement of neuromuscular parameters. For this purpose, the use of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) has typically been investigated, but recently, the use of ultrasound-guided percutaneous peripheral nerve stimulation (pPNS) has gained popularity. In this regard, electrical stimulation has a predisposition to activate Type II muscle fibers and has been shown to be capable of generating short-term potentiation by increasing calcium sensitivity. However, the evidence of pPNS applied in humans investigating such variables is rather limited. [...] |
