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

We have examples all week long with early treatment of #CRPS . The trick is figuring out what is not resolved. Here it was a fluid filled nodule at the thumb. And edema around the nerves. Injected the thumb and later after this video the median nerve. The test scores were zero in January

Perhaps I was prophetic when I made this video of Canadian bald eagle this summer. Why is the world’s largest scientific community being destroyed? @ryanmarino.bsky.social

All we want for Xmas is a nurse. To give our complex patients the care they need. This is a systemic failure in BC. Patients deserve care teams. Bowel and bladder, wounds, medication reviews, procedural assists. Compassion. @garymasonglobe successive leaders failed

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.

Trying to figure out how to be in Sync on blue sky

This incredible American teen is reclaiming his life after a catastrophic stroke. He left being able to walk with no huge leg brace and a spaghetti arm. He sang Kacey Musgrave songs for 2 hours during the procedure

Cryoneurolysis for the awful annoying and debilitating spasticity toe claw.

What’s it like to travel a few thousand km per treatment and have a team of six Drs treat you together?

Another MS patient believed to have weak hip flexors. NO it is contraction of. Vastus intermedius rectus and hamstrings

All the neurologists told me nothing treats hereditary spastic, paraparesis tone. This man left marching and thrilled. We tell them and MS patients their hip flexors are too weak. Nope they are spastic and need to be taken out. Rectus and hamstrings and calves here.

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.

Spasticity no more.

Never stop dreaming. Our little city just raised $2.7 million for robotic surgery. 2nd hospital in BC. #YYJ

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
