סיכום קצר
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a combined treatment approach for post-stroke upper limb spasticity using phenol neurolysis and botulinum toxin (BoNT). Spasticity is a common post-stroke complication that leads to muscle stiffness and significantly hinders functional recovery. While botulinum toxin is the standard treatment, its high cost often limits its application, particularly for large proximal muscl...הצג עוד
תיאור מפורט
Background and Rationale:

Post-stroke spasticity is a manifestation of Upper Motor Neuron Syndrome, characterized by reduced cortical inhibition and maladaptive plastic changes in both the ipsilesional and contralesional hemispheres. While Botulinum Toxin Type A (BoNT-A) provides focal chemodenervation, its effect on central neurophysiology is an area of active research. This study evaluates a hybrid approach-proxim...

ניסיHybrid Neuro-Chemodenervation (Phenol + BoNT-A)
Participants in this arm will receive a combined treatment approach. Phenol neurolysis (5% aqueous solution) will be administered under ultrasound guidance to the proximal nerves (specifically the pectoralis nerves for shoulder spasticity and the musculocutaneous nerve for elbow flexor spasticity). Concurrently, Botulinum Toxin Type A (BoNT-A) will be injected into the distal forearm flexor muscles (e.g., Flexor Carp...הצג עוד
Phenol Neurolysis
A chemical neurolysis procedure using a 5% aqueous phenol solution. Under real-time ultrasound (US) guidance, the needle is advanced until it is adjacent to the target nerve trunk. The phenol is then injected to induce protein denaturation and axonal degeneration (Wallerian degeneration), effectively interrupting the spastic reflex arc. Targets: The pectoralis nerves (to address shoulder adduction and internal rotat...הצג עוד
Botulinum Toxin - A injections
A focal chemodenervation procedure using Botulinum Toxin Type A. The toxin is reconstituted with 0.9% sterile saline. Using ultrasound guidance, the medication is injected directly into the motor points of the hypertonic muscles. The toxin acts by inhibiting the release of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, resulting in localized muscle relaxation. Targets (Experimental Group): Distal muscles only (e.g., F...הצג עוד
משווה פעילStandard Chemodenervation (BoNT-A Alone)
Participants in this arm will receive the standard-of-care treatment consisting of Botulinum Toxin Type A (BoNT-A) injections alone. The toxin will be administered under ultrasound guidance to all clinically indicated upper limb muscles, including both proximal (e.g., Pectoralis major, Biceps brachii) and distal muscle groups (e.g., forearm flexors), following standard clinical dosing guidelines.

מדדי תוצאה ראשיים
מדד תוצאהתיאור המדידהטווח זמן
Change from Baseline in the Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) at 4 and 12 weeks.
The MAS is used to assess muscle spasticity on a scale from 0 to 4. We will calculate the mean change in scores from baseline to each follow-up point. Lower scores indicate a reduction in muscle tone.
Baseline, 4 weeks, and 12 weeks.
מדדי תוצאה משניים
מדד תוצאהתיאור המדידהטווח זמן
Change from Baseline in Fugl-Meyer Assessment for Upper Extremity (FMA-UE).
A stroke-specific scale to evaluate motor recovery. Scores range from 0 to 66, with higher scores indicating better motor function.
Baseline, 4 weeks, and 12 weeks.
Goal Attainment Scale (GAS).
Evaluates the achievement of individual functional goals set at baseline.
4 weeks and 12 weeks.
Change from Baseline in Resting Motor Threshold (RMT) of both hemispheres.
Change from Baseline in Resting Motor Threshold (RMT) of both hemispheres measured using single-pulse Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). Resting Motor Threshold will be assessed using single-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation delivered over the primary motor cortex (M1) with a figure-of-eight coil. Surface electromyography (EMG) will record motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) from the contralateral first dorsal interosseous (FDI) muscle. RMT is defined as the minimum stimulator intensity (% of maximum stimulator output) required to elicit MEPs ≥50 μV in at least 5 out of 10 consecutive trials. RMT will be measured separately for the ipsilesional and contralesional hemispheres. Values are expressed as a percentage of maximum stimulator output (% MSO). Lower RMT values indicate increased corticospinal excitability. Assessments will occur at baseline, 4 weeks, and 12 weeks.
Baseline, 4 weeks, and 12 weeks.
Change from Baseline in Cortical Silent Period (CSP) duration.
Change from Baseline in Cortical Silent Period (CSP) duration measured using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). CSP duration will be assessed using single-pulse TMS delivered over the primary motor cortex during voluntary contraction (approximately 20% of maximal voluntary contraction) of the contralateral first dorsal interosseous muscle. CSP is defined as the duration (milliseconds) from the onset of the motor-evoked potential to the return of continuous EMG activity. CSP duration will be recorded for both hemispheres. Values are expressed in milliseconds (ms). Longer CSP duration reflects increased cortical inhibition.
Baseline, 4 weeks, and 12 weeks.
Total Dose of Botulinum Toxin Type A (BoNT-A) administered.
Comparison of the total units of BoNT-A used between the Hybrid group and the Standard group.
Day 0 (at time of injection).
