Comparison of Electrophysiologic And Ultrasound Guidance For Onabotulinum Toxin A Injections in Focal Upper Extremity Dystonia And Spasticity
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Electrical stimulation and Ultrasound for Spasticity and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 20 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
This study seeks to compare the use of ultrasound and electrophysiologic techniques to target muscles for the treatment of spasticity and focal dystonia of the limbs. The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of two ways of locating the muscle for botulinum toxin (BoNT) injection for the treatment of focal hand dystonia and upper limb spasticity. Electrophysiologic guidance, using electrical stimulation, and ultrasound are the standard ways of locating muscles during a treatment of BoNT injection.
