简要总结
A pre-post descriptive study was performed to examine the immediate effects of ultrasound (US) guided femoral nerve block with phenol (UGFNBwP) in managing lower limb spasticity of individuals with traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI).
详细描述
Study Design: A pre-post descriptive study was performed. Objectives: To examine the immediate effects of ultrasound (US) guided femoral nerve block with phenol (UGFNBwP) in managing lower limb spasticity of individuals with traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI).
Setting: Ankara, Turkey Methods: Nineteen patients with traumatic SCI presenting with lower extremity spasticity were treated with UGFNBwP. Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) of hip flexion and knee extension, functional independence measure (FIM) motor subscale, difficulty of catheterization (DoC), hygiene score (HS), spasm frequency (SF), sleep quality (SQ) and patient satisfaction (PS) were measured in all patients prior to treatment, at first week and second month.

结局指标
主要结局
Modified Ashworth Scale
时间窗: up to 8 weeks
Scale measures muscle tone (spasticity). (min-max:0-4).Higher values represent a worse outcome.
