Neurodynamic Mobilization in the Conservative Treatment of Cubital Tunnel Syndrome: Long-Term Follow-Up of 7 Cases

Short-Term Effects of Neurodynamic Mobilization in 15 Patients With Secondary Thumb Carpometacarpal Osteoarthritis

“…9 Nerve mobilization included sliding techniques, which aim to glide the nerve by alternating movements of at least 2 joints in which 1 movement loads the peripheral nervous system while the other movement simultaneously unloads the nervous system. [10][11][12] There are several methods to induce mechanical neural mobilization depending on the nerve structure that needs to be treated. [10][11][12] The sliding technique of the median nerve has been described in the past; however, to date, this is not a common practice for the treatment of TCOA.…”

“…[10][11][12] The sliding technique of the median nerve has been described in the past; however, to date, this is not a common practice for the treatment of TCOA. [10][11][12] It is thought that this technique slides the median nerve without tensioning the nerve. Through this method, gliding may occur within the nerve itself and between surrounding tissues.…”

Medical diagnosis of cubital tunnel syndrome ameliorated with thrust manipulation of the elbow and carpals

“…2 Two case reports have demonstrated the benefit of use of neurodynamic mobilization techniques (nerve gliding), and combination of pulsed ultrasound, ice, strengthening exercises, and patient education. 10,11 In summary, little has been published regarding physical therapy (PT) management for CuTS, and no study has addressed the use of thrust manipulation for CuTS. Therefore, the purpose of this case report is to describe the outcome of thrust manipulation to the elbow and carpals on a patient with insidious onset of CuTS.…”

Mobilização neural em rato Wistar reverte comportamento e mudanças celulares que caracterizam a dor neuropática.

“…Atualmente, a técnica vem sendo utilizada como método de avaliação e tratamento das mais diversas patologias que acometem o sistema nervoso central (acidente vascular encefálico) ou periférico (hérnias de disco ou síndrome do túnel do carpo) (Heebner e Roddey, 2008;Muller et al, 2004;Oskay et al, 2010) e as estruturas por ele inervadas como, por exemplo, os músculos, devido à integração existente entre aparelho locomotor e sistema nervoso (Dwornik et al, 2007;Dwornik et al, 2009;Ekstrom e Holden, 2002;Júnior e Teixeira, 2007;Sweeney e Harms, 1996).…”
