Douleur ; Electromyographie ; Pain ; Rééducation et réadaptationMots-clés : Electromyography Résumé : Objective
To determine the relation between the patient's actual pain, the electromyographer's perception of patient pain, and whether an electromyogram (EMG) is altered.
Design
Patients undergoing electromyography reported expected pain and procedure-related overall pain on a 100-mm visual analog scale (VAS). Blinded electromyographers estimated patient pain levels and indicated if they altered the study in any way because of this perception. Multivariable logistic regression was used to determine predictors of altering the EMG. Paired t tests were used to compare overall pain with expected pain and electromyographer perception of pain.
Setting
Tertiary referral center.
Participants
Referred sample of adult subjects (N=304).
Interventions
Not applicable.
Main Outcome Measures
Patient pain, electromyographer perception of patient pain, and whether an EMG was altered because of the electromyographer's perception of patient pain.
Results
Mean VAS scores + SD were 48+25mm for patient-expected pain (P<.001 for electromyographer perception of pain and actual overall pain. electromyographers altered their study the time because concerns about every increase on vas prespecified clinically meaningful difference increased odds altering a times confidence interval whereas patient did not have significant effect ratio="1.12;" ci .86> Conclusions
Patients expect EMGs to be more painful than they are. Electromyographers overestimate patient pain and are more likely to alter their studies when they believe patients are experiencing more pain, independently of whether patients actually have more pain. Improving the communication between electromyographers and patients may prevent unnecessary alterations.Disponible en ligne : Oui En ligne : https://login.ezproxy.vinci.be/login?url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/a [...] Permalink : https://bib.vinci.be/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=117694

Electromyographie ; Perception de la douleur ; Rééducation et réadaptationMots-clés : Anesthetics Local Anesthésiques locaux Electromyography Pain Perception Résumé : Objective
To compare the effects of a vapocoolant spray and an eutectic mixture of local anesthetics (EMLA) cream in reducing pain during needle electromyography examination.
Design
Randomized controlled trial.
Setting
Physical medicine and rehabilitation department of a university hospital.
Participants
Adults who underwent needle electromyography (N=99) were randomized to 1 of 2 experimental groups or the control group. Two patients dropped out during the study.
Interventions
In the experimental groups, vapocoolant spray or EMLA cream were applied before needle electromyography. In the control group, needle electromyography was performed without pretreatment.
Main Outcome Measures
Intensity of pain associated with needle electromyography was assessed using a 100-mm visual analog scale (VAS). Patient satisfaction and preference for repeated use were measured using a 5-point Likert scale.
Results
VAS score for pain intensity was significantly lower in the spray group (31.9; 95% confidence interval [CI], 22.041.7) compared with the control group (52.9; 95% CI, 45.960.0; P=.002), whereas there was no significant difference between the EMLA cream group (42.4; 95% CI, 34.250.7) and the control group. Patient satisfaction and preference for repeated use were higher in the spray group than the EMLA group.
Conclusions
Vapocoolant spray was more effective than EMLA cream in reducing pain during needle electromyography.Disponible en ligne : Oui En ligne : https://login.ezproxy.vinci.be/login?url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/a [...] Permalink : https://bib.vinci.be/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=117487

Electromyographie ; Rééducation et réadaptation ; Sensibilité et spécificitéMots-clés : Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome Syndrome fémoro patellaire Electromyography Sensitivity and Specificity Résumé : Objective
To assess the diagnostic accuracy of the surface electromyography (sEMG) parameters associated with referred anterior knee pain in diagnosing patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS).
Design
Sensitivity and specificity analysis.
Setting
Physical rehabilitation center and laboratory of biomechanics and motor control.
Participants
Pain-free subjects (n=29) and participants with PFPS (n=22) selected by convenience.
Interventions
Not applicable.
Main Outcome Measure
The diagnostic accuracy was calculated for sEMG parameters reliability, precision, and ability to differentiate participants with and without PFPS. The selected sEMG parameter associated with anterior knee pain was considered as an index test and was compared with the reference standard for the diagnosis of PFPS. Intraclass correlation coefficient, SEM, independent t tests, sensitivity, specificity, negative and positive likelihood ratios, and negative and positive predictive values were used for the statistical analysis.
Results
The medium-frequency band (B2) parameter was reliable (intraclass correlation coefficient=.80.90), precise (SEM=2.713.87 normalized unit), and able to differentiate participants with and without PFPS (P<.05 the association of b2 with anterior knee pain showed positive diagnostic accuracy values .87 sensitivity .70 negative likelihood ratio .33 predictive value .72 and .86> Conclusions
The results provide evidence to support the use of EMG signals (B2 frequency band of 4596Hz) of the vastus lateralis and vastus medialis muscles with referred anterior knee pain in the diagnosis of PFPS.Disponible en ligne : Oui En ligne : https://login.ezproxy.vinci.be/login?url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/a [...] Permalink : https://bib.vinci.be/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=118944

Electromyographie ; Rééducation et réadaptation ; SciatiqueMots-clés : Electromyography Radiculopathy Sciatica Radiculopathie Résumé : Objective
To determine the incremental ability of different needle electromyography diagnostic criteria to detect lumbar radiculopathy.
Design
Blinded cross-sectional study.
Setting
University hospital.
Participants
Subjects aged 55 to 80 years with radiating low back pain (n=48; mean age + SD, 67.9+7.3y) and who were asymptomatic (n=30; mean age + SD, 65.4+8y).
Interventions
Electrodiagnostic evaluation by a blinded electromyographer. A monopolar needle was used to evaluate 5 leg muscles and the lumbar paraspinal muscles.
Main Outcome Measures
Presence or absence of radiculopathy using different electrodiagnostic criteria.
Results
When only positive sharp waves or fibrillations were considered, and at least 2 muscles innervated by the same root level and different peripheral nerves were counted as abnormal, 27.1% (13/48) of participants had positive results for radiculopathy. When at least 30% motor unit action potential changes in the limb muscles were also considered, participants with positive results increased to 45.8% (22/48), which was significant when compared with the first criterion (P=.002). When the mini-paraspinal mapping (MiniPM) test as well as at least a 30% motor unit cutoff was used, participants with positive results increased to 50% (24/48), which was significant when compared with the first criterion (P=.001).
Conclusions
In addition to the presence of positive sharp waves or fibrillations, considering greater than or equal to 30% motor unit action unit potential changes as well as the MiniPM score maintains good specificity and improves the ability of the needle electromyography study to detect lumbar radiculopathy in subjects with radiating low back pain.Disponible en ligne : Oui En ligne : http://www.archives-pmr.org/article/S0003-9993%2812%2900077-9/abstract Permalink : https://bib.vinci.be/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=117183

Titre : Optimal Normalization Tests for Muscle Activation of the Levator Scapulae, Pectoralis Minor, and Rhomboid Major: An Electromyography Study Using Maximum Voluntary Isometric Contractions Type de document : Article Auteurs : Birgit Castelein ; Barbara Cagnie ; Thierry Parlevliet Article en page(s) : pp. 18201827 Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteurs : HE Vinci
Electromyographie ; Epaule ; Rééducation et réadaptationMots-clés : Electromyography Shoulder Résumé : Objective
To identify maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) test positions for the deeper-lying scapulothoracic muscles (ie, levator scapulae, pectoralis minor, rhomboid major), and to provide a standard set of a limited number of test positions that generate an MVIC in all scapulothoracic muscles.
Design
Cross-sectional study.
Setting
Physical and rehabilitation medicine department.
Participants
Healthy subjects (N=21).
Interventions
Not applicable.
Main Outcome Measures
Mean peak electromyographic activity from levator scapulae, pectoralis minor, and rhomboid major (investigated with fine-wire electromyography) and from upper trapezius, middle trapezius, lower trapezius, and serratus anterior (investigated with surface electromyography) during the performance of 12 different MVICs.
Results
The results indicated that various test positions generated similar high mean electromyographic activity and that no single test generated maximum activity for a specific muscle in all subjects. The results of this study support using a series of test positions for normalization procedures rather than a single exercise to increase the likelihood of recruiting the highest activity in the scapulothoracic muscles.
Conclusions
A standard set of 5 test positions was identified as being sufficient for generating an MVIC of all scapulothoracic muscles: seated T, seated U 135°, prone Tthumbs up, prone Vthumbs up, and supine Vthumbs up. A standard set of test positions for normalization of scapulothoracic electromyographic data that also incorporates the levator scapulae, pectoralis minor, and rhomboid major muscles is 1 step toward a more comprehensive understanding of normal and abnormal muscle function of these muscles and will help to standardize the presentation of scapulothoracic electromyographic muscle activity.Disponible en ligne : Oui En ligne : https://login.ezproxy.vinci.be/login?url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/a [...] Permalink : https://bib.vinci.be/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=118247
