Abstract:
Aims: To investigate the feasibility of quantitative analysis of muscle stiffness by Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse (ARFI) imaging, to obtain the reference values at relaxing and contraction position of gastrocnemius medialis (GCM) and to evaluate the inter-observer and intra-observer reliabilities of shear wave velocities measurements in healthy skeletal muscles.Material and methods: The stiffness of the left GCM muscle of 15 healthy volunteers was measured by ARFI elastography in transverse scan while the ankle was in the relaxed position and in 30 degrees of plantar flexion with the submaximal isometric contraction. All subjects were examined by two experienced physiatrists with four years of experience. Reliability of ARFI measurements was assessed by means of the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Interobserver and intra-observer reliabilities were statistically analyzed.Results: The mean shear wave velocity (SWV) of GCM at plantar flexion position with submaximal isometric contraction was significantly higher than that at relaxed position (first physiatrists: plantar flexion with submaximal isometric contraction 2.41±1.09 m/s, relaxed 0.84±0.28 m/s, second physiatrist: plantar flexion with submaximal isometric contraction 2.49±0.94m/s, relaxed 0.83±0.21), p<0.05. The inter-observer reliability was excellent for ankle-plantar flexion with submaximal isometric contraction (ICC=0.968), and good for relaxed position (ICC=0.891) respectively. The intra-observer reliability for ankle-plantar flexion with submaximal isometric contraction were excellent (ICC: first physiatrist 0.98 and second physiatrist 0.96) and that for relaxed position (ICC: first physiatrist 0.98 and second physiatrist 0.90) were also excellent. There was no significant correlation between SWV and body mass index.Conclusions: ARFI elastography is a reliable imaging modality for quantifying the stiffness of contracting muscles. Additionally, the characterization of pathological soft tissues by ARFI elastography would be a promising clinical practice for patients with musculoskeletal issues.

Abstract:
ObjectiveTo determine whether the 2013 nerve conduction study (NCS) reimbursement reduction changed Medicare use, payments, and patient access to Medicare physicians by performing a retrospective analysis of Medicare data (2012–2016 fee-for-service data from the CMS Physician and Other Supplier Public Use File).MethodsIndividual billable services were identified by Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System Current Procedural Terminology and G codes. Medicare use and payments were stratified by specialty and type of service (electrodiagnostic tests, including NCS and EMG, and other neurologic procedures). We also assessed access to Medicare physicians using the annual number of unique beneficiaries receiving initial Evaluation and Management (E/M) services.ResultsWe identified 676,113 Medicare providers included in all analysis years from 2012 to 2016 (10,599 neurologists, 5,881 physiatrists, and 659,633 other specialties). Comparing 2016 to 2012 showed that 21.1% fewer neurologists, 28.6% fewer physiatrists, and 69.3% fewer other specialists performed NCS and 3.8% fewer neurologists, 21.7% fewer physiatrists, and 5.6% fewer other specialists performed EMG. For NCS providers in 2012, the mean number of unique Medicare beneficiaries increased for neurologists (1.2%) and physiatrists (4.8%) but decreased for other specialists (−6.5%) by 2016. After the NCS cut, the number of providers performing autonomic and evoked potential testing increased substantially.ConclusionsThe Medicare NCS reimbursement policy resulted in a larger decrease in NCS providers than in EMG providers. Despite fewer neurologists and physiatrists performing NCS, Medicare access to these physicians for E/M services was not affected. Increased autonomic and evoked potential testing may be an unintended consequence of NCS reimbursement change.

Abstract:
Spinal disorders, especially back pain, are frequent yet challenging for physicians to manage. While most texts are highly subspecialized or focus on only surgical intervention, The Spine Handbook provides a thorough overview, covering the entire spine, of interdisciplinary treatment of common spinal conditions. Sections build from the foundations of history and examination, radiologic imaging, and behavioral assessment through the core topics of both interventional and surgical options, as well as exploring emerging and special conditions and neuromodulation. Chapters are written by experts from a wide array of fields, including physical therapists, radiologists, psychologists, physiatrists, anesthesiologists, orthopedic spine surgeons, and neurosurgeons. This comprehensive handbook provides the fundamental diagnostic and therapeutic information needed to effectively deliver best-practice care for spinal disorders, making it an ideal reference for physicians of any training level who may encounter or treat spinal disorders.

Abstract:
Every day, all around the world, millions of people request postural and/or motor rehabilitation. The rehabilitation process, also known as Tertiary Prevention, intends to be a sort of therapy to restore functionality and self-sufficiency of the patient, and regards not only millions of patients daily, but involves also a huge number of professionals in medical staffs, i.e. specialists, nurses, physiotherapists and therapists, social workers, psychologists, physiatrists. The care is given in hospitals, clinics, geriatric facilities, and with territorial home care. For the large number of patients as well as the medical staff and facilities necessary to support the appropriate postural and motor training, the monetary costs of rehabilitation is so large, it is difficult to estimate. So, every effort towards a simplification of the rehabilitation route is desirable and welcome, and this chapter covers this aspect.

Abstract:
The definition of fibromyalgia includes widespread pain in all four quadrants (areas) of the body. What happens when you have fibromyalgia-like pain located in only one or two quadrants of the body? Limited forms of the syndrome have distinct features and terms used to describe them. Myofascial pain syndrome encompasses many regional pain conditions ranging from temporomandibular joint dysfunction in the jaw to a low back pain syndrome. The diagnosis of myofascial pain syndrome requires that at least one trigger point be present and that, when it is pressed, pain is referred to another site. This chapter will review regional myofascial pain, relate it to fibromyalgia pain pathways, and discuss its management and prognosis. Our current concepts of tender points, trigger points, and regional pain amplification were developed by two of the best-known physical medicine thinkers, Janet Travell and David Simons. Beginning in the early 1940s, Dr. Travell became well known as John F. Kennedy’s physician, who nursed him back to health in the 1950s when back pain restricted his ability to walk. Later, she became Lyndon Johnson’s White House physician. Travell and Simon’s textbook on myofascial pain remains a classic and was updated by them as recently as 1992. Dr. Travell (who died in 1997 at the age of 95) and Dr. Simons formed close working relationships with rheumatologists, and their influence permeates every fibromyalgia study relating to tender points and regional pain. Neurologists, neurosurgeons, and orthopedists diagnosed and treated localized muscle and nerve pain long before there were rheumatologists. At about the same time that rheumatologists were becoming recognized and organized into a certifiable subspecialty, an equally small group of doctors were organizing themselves into a specialty known as physical medicine and rehabilitation. These doctors (who call themselves physiatrists) do not perform surgery, are not internists or family physicians, and do not manage autoimmune diseases. They concern themselves with areas not addressed by rheumatologists such as stroke, cardiac, and spinal cord injury rehabilitation. Physical medicine doctors usually practice in a hospital or hospital-like environment and work closely on a daily basis with physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, social workers, psychologists, and other allied health professionals.

Abstract:
Fibromyalgia is usually a diagnosis of exclusion. Often poorly understood by some primary care physicians, the diagnosis of fibromyalgia is often delayed. Even though in one survey up to 10 percent of general medical visits involve a complaint of generalized musculoskeletal pain, the diagnosis was made only after patients saw a mean of 3.5 doctors. This chapter will take you through the workup that establishes the definitive diagnosis and eliminates other possible explanations for the patient’s complaints. Doctors who diagnose and treat fibromyalgia often cross specialty lines. Although rheumatologists tend to regard fibromyalgia as residing within their bailiwick, there are too few of us to handle all the needs of the 6 million fibromyalgia sufferers. The 5,000 rheumatologists in the United States are internal medicine subspecialists. A total of 80,000 doctors practice primary care internal medicine in the United States, and an additional 80,000 general or family practitioners are the front-line doctors for most patients. These physicians may suspect fibromyalgia and consult a rheumatologist to confirm the diagnosis. In complicated cases, the rheumatologist can take over the management of the condition. Orthopedists, neurosurgeons, and neurologists frequently diagnose fibromyalgia but generally refer patients to rheumatologists or internists for treatment. Rheumatologists may refer patients to physical medicine specialists or pain management centers when their approaches do not bear fruit. Suppose that you are suspected of having fibromyalgia, and a primary care physician has referred you to a fibromyalgia consultant (usually a rheumatologist but sometimes an internist, physiatrist, neurologist, orthopedist, or osteopath) to confirm the diagnosis and make management suggestions. Is any sort of advanced preparation advisable? Yes. Bring copies of outside records and previous test results or workups to the consultant. If you have more than a few complaints or are taking more than a few medications, a summary list is useful. The evaluation will consist of a history, physical examination, diagnostic laboratory tests, and possibly imaging studies (X-rays, scans, etc.). Once all the observations and test results are in, the doctor will discuss the findings with you—perhaps at the time of the visit, by telephone after the initial meeting, or in a follow-up visit.
