Specialization in Peripheral Neuromodulation: chemical block with Botulinum Toxin and Phenol

Spasticity and changes in muscle tone pose major challenges for professionals dealing with central nervous system impairment pathologies and movement disorders.

Today, there are various methods that can be used for muscle relaxation. Choosing the most appropriate one requires a careful analysis of the patient's functional benefit, the cost-benefit ratio, side effects, and practicality of use.

Blocking through chemodenervation is a resource widely used among specialized professionals. Among the various methods, we can highlight the increasing use of botulinum neurotoxin.

In this theoretical-practical course, we will address the clinical protocols and therapeutic guidelines standardized by the Ministry of Health to be adopted for the treatment of spasticity and other movement disorders (Dystonia).
