摘要
Optimising ultrasonography imaging (UI) applications for clients is a highly specific and sensitive add-on method. The aim of this meta-analysis was to systematically evaluate the clinical utilisation of UI in musculoskeletal conditions by rehabilitation providers in the past decade. Two reviewers independently assessed relevant research articles from five databases electronically (Medline, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, ProQuest, EBSCO) and screened titles and abstracts based on predefined eligibility criteria (2010- 2020). A total of 147 articles were screened for eligibility by two reviewers independently, and any disagreements were resolved by another reviewer using Rayyan QCRI software. Ninety-seven duplicates were removed, and after excluding 21 studies, 16 randomized controlled trials were included and full texts retrieved. Data were synthesised using Revman 5.4 software for qualitative analysis and risk-of-bias assessment. Four similar studies were statistically analysed for heterogeneity of abdominal muscle contraction ratios. Two interventional studies were also analysed to assess the effect of feedback. The diagnostic application of UI was investigated using a consistent amount of literature, though from a rehabilitation perspective the literature is inconclusive. The clinical utility of UI in rehabilitation by physical therapists is conclusive and has potential to advance clinical practice. Further well-designed randomized controlled trials minimising selection biases will help improve the quality in this domain. Critical reflection, clinical reasoning, and mutual goal setting will help practising physical therapists to scrutinize the clinical practice more objectively.
