Our #cryoneurolysis joy of the week. Consent 80 year old with CP weeks of rapid decline due to severely worsening spasticity and pain in legs. Lost her ability to walk. See before video. My fellow did bilateral 2 quads 3 hamstrings and 3 right calf muscles. Ready immediately for discharge
None of my co-authors have joined me on BlueSky yet! New paper hot off the press (still in press really) showcasing our years of work studying #cryoneurolysis for #spasticity

Last #cryoneurolysis child before the holidays.
Bilateral triceps. He gets his arms stuck in doorways. Unbreakable tone. 10 years old, mom approved and thrilled.@CerebralPalsyBC
Propofol sedation. Watch for ultrasound images
This is how we send 96-year-olds home from the hospital immediately. Knee pain prevents walking or transferring. We do bedside ultrasound-guided #cryoneurolysis or bring them down to the clinic. We used a 10 m walk test, but many had yet to do the ten-meter test before.
Hi @mvgutierrezmd.bsky.social can you introduce me to your peeps for my Blue Sky arrival? This is what I do. One of this weeks #cryoneurolysis travellers.
Dr. Ghuman started her #cryoneurolysis journey @ Mount Sinai NY and now is at @Montefiore PMR With Dr. Mucha they were awesome and eager to start a second NY Service
How long does #cryoneurolysis last. Patient and disease dependent. In this patient with a TBI it’s still working at one year, no clonus and range maintained
What happens when years of unmovable fingers meet a frozen force. Cleaning the macerated broken down skin is very rewarding. #cryoneurolysis median nerve trunk below elbow and FDS and FDP. Results are lasting a long time.
So looking forward to having two more doctors from New York train with us in #cryoneurolysis next week. It’s wonderful to see our work spreading across America. www.arcryo.ca
