The aim of this study was to generate a consensus on these criteria, via a panel discussion with DN experts which took place at the International Conference of Invasive Physical Therapy held in 2018, including the opinion of the attendees who participated in a live survey on the subject at the conference via an app. The results obtained reveal discrepancies regarding confirmatory criteria such as the elicitation of referred pain; nonetheless, consensus exists on the suitability of the application of individualized and personalized DN treatment and the combination of treatment with other intervention approaches in physical therapy, with the use of ultrasound when required to support a safer clinical practice. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc-sa http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/es/ info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Guerra, Rafael Labraca, Xavi Lari, Marc Pecos, Daniel Torres, Bárbara Calvo, Sandra (orcid)0000-0002-1674-7788 02, 02 (2019), 050-054 Revista Fisioterapia invasiva 2386-4591 150912 http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/131226/files/texto_completo.pdf Versión publicada 2126760 http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/131226/files/texto_completo.jpg?subformat=icon icon Versión publicada oai:zaguan.unizar.es:131226 articulos driver 2024-02-08-10:52:58 ARTICLE
