We used the pain and disability driver model (PDDM) and exposure in vivo (EIV) concepts to manage pain-related fear and disability. CASE PRESENTATION: A 68-year-old male who underwent arthroscopic partial meniscectomy presented to physical therapy with a medical diagnosis of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome Type I (CRPS-I) and knee range of motion restriction. Despite extensive medical care and physical therapy for three years (202 visits) he continued to experience debilitating knee pain and demonstrated a high level of fear. To ambulate, he wore a knee brace and used a trekking pole. OUTCOME AND FOLLOW UP: Interventions to address the knee stiffness included combined tibiofemoral joint mobilization and high velocity low amplitude thrust manipulation (HVLAT) targeting tibial internal rotation and low load long duration sustained capsular stretching using total end range time (TERT) principle for extension. His fear was managed using techniques inspired by in vivo exposure concepts. Total knee range of motion improved 110 degrees and the patient was able to ambulate for 30 minutes (0.5 mile) without an assistive device with <2/10 pain intensity. DISCUSSION: Outside-the-box clinical reasoning suggested poor outcomes with previous interventions were likely due to hypervigilance and pain-related fear. This case delineates the value of non-reductionist clinical reasoning in diagnosis and management of musculoskeletal conditions. It also outlines how the exposure in vivo approach helped the patient overcome his long-established avoidance behaviors.","PeriodicalId":73565,"journal":{"name":"JOSPT cases","volume":"27 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141685248","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The addition of postoperative Blood Flow Restriction Therapy (BFRT) in patients with arthroscopic rotator cuff repair has not been described in the literature. The purpose of this case report was to describe the use of BFRT in the postoperative rehabilitation of a patient with arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. CASE PRESENTATION: A 54-year-old male with an arthroscopically treated full-thickness rotator cuff tear completed a 12-week postoperative rehabilitation included low-intensity resistance exercises with BFRT. Assessment was performed at baseline, six weeks, twelve weeks, and at six months follow-up. At baseline, the patient presented with a reduction in shoulder muscle thickness, strength and active range of motion, and reported shoulder pain and limited physical function. OUTCOME AND FOLLOW-UP: At the 12th week of postoperative physical therapy discharge, the patient showed clinically significant improvements in biceps brachii muscle thickness, abduction and external rotation strength and range of motion of the shoulder, movement-evoked pain, and physical function. DISCUSSION: The addition of BFRT to postoperative rehabilitation exercises may be a valuable therapeutic strategy in arthroscopically treated rotator cuff tears. Randomized clinical trials are needed to evaluate the efficacy of BFRT in patients with arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs.","PeriodicalId":73565,"journal":{"name":"JOSPT cases","volume":"7 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141687669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This case demonstrated how an applied anatomical analysis influenced the framework of care after which the patient had reduced pain and returned to running. CASE PRESENTATION: The 32-year-old man had 16-years of unremitting CMS that began during high school cross country training. His 5-8/10 intensity pain, aggravated by sexual or physical activity, limited his ability to sit for work >30 minutes or run. Manual therapy to mobilize anatomic structures potentially affecting cremaster muscle function was followed by graded return to running. OUTCOME AND FOLLOW-UP: After 5 sessions, pain intensity had decreased to 0.5/10 at worst, hip flexibility and strength impairments had resolved, and he had returned to running without increased pain. His Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index score improved from 19/45 to 8/45. DISCUSSION: Anatomical analysis and the organized care framework led to sequenced treatment starting with body structures affecting the cremaster including mobilization of spinal and peripheral joints, and myofascial structures; followed by exercise and neuromotor training. Despite his condition’s chronicity, treatment culminated in return-to-running. This case informs the differential diagnosis of lumbo-pelvic-hip problems because concurrent CMS may be under-reported.","PeriodicalId":73565,"journal":{"name":"JOSPT cases","volume":"344 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141686521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
