The aim of this trial is to investigate the efficacy of trigger point injections with 1% lidocaine in reducing myofascial back and neck pain in the Emergency Department compared to lidocaine patches 5%.
NCT05429827
Patients with an myofascial trigger point (MTrP) in their upper trapezius will be divided into three groups: Group A receiving MTrP injection with normal saline (control group), Group B with hypo-osmolar dextrose (5% dextrose), and Group C with hyper-osmolar dextrose (15% dextrose). Clinical outcomes and morphological changes will be measured before the injection, one hour after, one week after, two weeks after, and one month after the injection to delineate the therapeutic effects of dextrose injection for an MTrP.
NCT06492148
It has been found that women with dysmenorrhea have active trigger points, particularly in the rectus abdominis, oblique abdominal muscles, quadratus lumborum, and paraspinal muscles. The myofascial release technique is a widely used manual therapy method characterized by the application of low-load, long-duration mechanical forces to manipulate the myofascial complex. This technique aims to restore optimal length, alleviate pain, and improve function. This study aims to examine the effect of the myofascial release technique on central sensitization, myofascial trigger points, and menstrual symptoms in women with primary dysmenorrhea.

NCT05546203
Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of ischemic compression and low-level laser therapy methods combined with exercise on the myofascial trigger points in women with Chronic Pelvic Pain and to determine which method is more effective. Methods: It was a parallel designed, single-blind pilot randomized clinical trial. Patients were enrolled in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology (at Istanbul University-Cerrahpasa). The patients were diagnosed by a gynecologist (F.G.U and C. Y.), referred to the clinical laboratory of physiotherapy and rehabilitation to participate (by physiotherapists K.S. and E.K.M.) in the trial from September 2017 to June 2019. Twenty-eight women patients with Chronic Pelvic Pain were included into the trial. Patients were randomized into two groups. Group 1 received ischemic compression and Group 2 received low-level laser therapy twice a week for 6 weeks. Both groups received the same standard exercise program. Pain, range of motion, pelvic floor symptom severity, quality of life, satisfaction, anxiety, and depression were assessed after 6 weeks and 1-year follow up.
NCT02393521
The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of a self-administered vibration therapy treatment on neck pain, disability and pressure pain thresholds in patients with non-specific neck pain and myofascial trigger points (MTrPs). The investigators hypothesized that patients receiving vibration therapy would report less perceived neck pain, disability and present higher PPTs after receiving vibration therapy when compared to a control no-treatment group.
NCT03993223
The healthy overhead athletes with and without upper trapezius myofascial trigger point will be asked to perform a scapular elevation task until the upper trapezius muscle fatigue. The first hypothesis is that the subjects with upper trapezius myofascial trigger point will show significant difference in scapular kinematics and muscles activities when compared to subjects without upper trapezius myofascial trigger point. Besides, the investigators suggest that subjects with/without upper trapezius myofascial trigger point will show significant difference in scapular kinematics and muscles activities after upper trapezius muscle fatigue, especially in subjects with upper trapezius myofascial trigger point.
NCT05148416
This study was conducted to investigate the effect of High intensity laser therapy( HILT) on pressure pain threshold, serum cortisol level, passive knee range of motion, and changes of functional disability in patients with active myofascial trigger points(MTrPs) pain associated wit knee osteoarthritis(OA) .
NCT05090059
Plantar fasciitis (PF) is a common cause of heel pain. Among the several conservative treatment options, Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is considered the standard treatment. Recent studies suggest that PF may be sustained by a myofascial impairment proximal to the pain area with a biomechanical disequilibrium of the entire lower limb and pelvis. Therefore, by combining the concepts of Fascial Manipulation and ESWT, the purpose of this open label randomized controlled clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of the ESWT on myofascial trigger points of lower limb in a sample of subjects with PF. Patients with PF were randomly assigned to an Experimental treatment Group (EG), treated with focused ESWT on myofascial points, and a Control Group (CG), treated with the focused ESWT traditional approach on the medial calcaneal tubercle. Outcome measures included the Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) and the Italian Foot Functional Index (17-iFFI). The assessment was made before the first session(baseline-T1), immediately before the second session (T2), immediately before the third session (T3), at 1month (T4) and 4 months' follow-up (T5). Thirty patients who satisfied inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled.
NCT04719689
This project was a Randomized clinical trial conducted to Compare the effects of dry needling and dry cupping in Positional fault of pelvis due to Myofascial trigger points in Quadratus Lumborum so that we can have best treatment option for patients with myofascial trigger points.
NCT04546490
The aim of the study is to compare two manual therapy techniques. By testing if the Pressure Release of Myofascial Trigger Points technique (PRM) is more effective in treating Myofascial Trigger Points present in the upper trapezius muscle of patients with mechanical cervical pain. This will be compared mainly with another manual therapy technique that presents evidences such as Ischemic Pressure technique (IP), and a control group, through the evaluation of the Visual Analogical Scale (VAS), the Threshold of Pain at Pressure (TPP) and the Northwick Park Questionnaire (NPC) of neck disability, spanish version.
NCT02699294
This randomised-controlled trial investigates whether a single intervention of manual pressure release combined with stretching exercise has an effect on muscle length, pain perception threshold, and respiratory function in subjects with latent myofascial trigger point in the pectoralis minor muscle or not. First quarter of the participants will receive a single intervention of manual pressure release combined with contract-relax PNF stretching exercise of pectoralis minor muscle, second quarter of the participants will receive a single intervention of manual pressure release combined with Z stretching exercise of pectoralis minor muscle while, only a single intervention of manual pressure release will be applied to third quarter of the participants and final quarter of them will not receive any intervention.
