Ultrasound-Guided Percutaneous Nerve Stimulation in Post-Stroke Spasticity: A Case Report

Ultrasound-Guided Percutaneous Nerve Stimulation in Post-Stroke Spasticity: A Case Report

Introduction: Post-stroke spasticity (PSS) significantly impacts the quality of life for stroke survivors. While various treatments exist, options for refractory cases are limited. Ultrasound-guided percutaneous peripheral nerve stimulation (pPNS), commonly used in pain management, has not been stud...
