Ultrasound-Guided Percutaneous Neuromodulation in Patients with Unilateral Anterior Knee Pain: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Ultrasound-Guided Percutaneous Neuromodulation in Patients with Unilateral Anterior Knee Pain: A Randomized Clinical Trial

The objective of this study was to evaluate the short-term and crossover effects of a percutaneous neuromodulation (PNM) intervention on the femoral nerve, regarding the pain, knee flexion motion (range of motion (ROM)), and functionality, in patients with unilateral anterior knee pain (AKP). Our st...
