Abstract

This Chinese Expert Consensus, Addressing the Non‐standard Application of Ultrasound‐guided Myofascial Trigger Point (MTrP) Hydrodissection, Formulates Recommendations Using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) Method. This Consensus Elaborates on Diagnostic Criteria for MTrP and Efficacy Evaluation, Including Requirements for Operator Qualifications, Training and Quality Control,etc. It Also Offers Detailed Guidance on Procedural Techniques and Solution Preparation for Hydrodissection on Cervical, Thoracic, Lumbar and Gluteal MTrP, with Adverse Reactions and Treatments Sorted Out. This Expert Consensus Expected for Providing Technical Guidance to Clinicians.
