Abstract

Objective: To analyse the effect of the manual ischemic compression (IC) on the upper limb motor performance (MP) in patients with LTrPs.

Materials and methods: A quasiexperimental study was performed in twenty subjects allocated to either patients group with LTrPs (PG, n=10) or healthy group with no symptoms (HG, n=10). Subjective pain and linear MP (movement time and Fitts' Law) were assessed before and after a linear tapping task. Data were analysed with mixed factorial ANOVA for intergroup linear motor performance differences and dependent t-student test for intragroup pain differences.

Results: PG had a linear MP lower than the HG before treatment (p < 0.05). After IC, the PG showed a significant decrease of pain (4.07 ± 1.91 p < 0.001). Furthermore, the movement time (15.70 ± 2.05 p < 0.001) and the Fitts' Law coefficient (0.80 ± 0.53 p < 0.001) were significantly reduced. However, one IC session did not allow the PG to get the same MP than the HG (p < 0.05).

Conclusion: The results suggest the IC effectiveness on pain and MP impairment in subjects with LTrPs. However, the MP of these patients is only partially improved after the IC application.

局部缺血性压迫对上肢潜在肌筋膜触发点的影响：主观疼痛和线性运动性能的研究。

目的：分析手法缺血性压迫（IC）对LTrPs患者上肢运动能力（MP）的影响。材料和方法：对20名受试者进行准实验研究，分为LTrPs病人组（PG，n=10）和无症状健康组（HG，n=10。在线性敲击任务前后评估主观疼痛和线性MP（运动时间和Fitts定律）。采用混合因子方差分析法对组间线性运动表现差异进行分析，并采用依赖性t研究检验对组内疼痛差异进行分析。结果：治疗前PG的线性MP低于HG（p＜0.05），IC后PG的疼痛明显减轻（4.07±1.91 p＜0.001），运动时间（15.70±2.05 p＜0.001，）和Fitts定律系数（0.80±0.53 p＜0.001。然而，一次IC治疗不允许PG获得与HG相同的MP（p<0.05）。结论：结果表明，IC对LTrPs受试者的疼痛和MP损伤有效。然而，这些患者的MP在IC应用后仅得到部分改善。

期刊介绍： Rehabilitation Research and Practice is a peer-reviewed, Open Access journal that publishes original research articles, review articles, and clinical studies in all areas of physical medicine and rehabilitation. The journal focuses on improving and restoring functional ability and quality of life to those with physical impairments or disabilities. In addition, articles looking at techniques to assess and study disabling conditions will be considered.
