Clinical Trial: Evaluation of a Novel Class of Objective Myofascial Pain Assessments
Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: RECRUITING
Condition: Myofascial Pain
Study Type: OBSERVATIONAL
Official Title: Electrophysiological and Ultrasound Quantitative Biomarkers for Myofascial Pain
Brief Summary:
This is an observational study that is intended to determine the capacity of three technologies to serve as diagnostic biomarkers for myofascial pain syndrome.We will seek patients with myofasical pain syndrome as well as healthy subjects for this study.Electrical impedance myography (EIM), myofiber threshold tracking (TT) excitability testing, and ultrasound with shear wave elastography (SWE) measurements will be obtained from the trapezius muscle (the muscle that extends over the back of the neck and…
