BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Palpation evaluates the fascia, a three-dimensional web of connective tissues. We propose altered fascia system displacement in patients with myofascial pain syndrome. This study determined the concurrent validity of palpation and musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) videos played on Windows Media Player 10 (WMP) when evaluating the direction of the fascia system's displacement at the end of the cervical active range of motion (AROM).
METHODS: This cross-sectional study used palpation as index test and MSUS videos on WMP as reference test. First, three physical therapists palpated right and left shoulders for each cervical AROM. Second, during cervical AROM, PT-Sonographer recorded the fascia system displacement. Third, using the WMP, the physical therapists evaluated the direction of skin, superficial and deep fascia displacements at the end of cervical AROM. MedCalc Version 19.5.3 determined the "exact" Clopper-Pearson Interval (CPI).
RESULTS: We found strong accuracy between palpation and MSUS videos on WMP when determining the direction of skin displacement during cervical flexion and extension (CPI= 78.56 to 96.89). There was moderate agreement between palpation and MSUS videos on WMP when determining the direction of the skin, superficial fascia, and deep fascia displacements during cervical lateral flexion and rotation (CPI= 42.25 to 64.13).
CONCLUSION: Skin palpation during cervical flexion and extension may be useful in evaluating patients with myofascial pain syndrome (MPS). It is unclear what fascia system was evaluated when shoulders were palpated at the end of cervical lateral flexion and rotation. Palpation as diagnostic tool for MPS was not investigated.
