Abstract

There are three types of focused shock wave generators: electrohydraulic, electromagnetic and piezoelectric. Although it has been postulated that there are no differences in clinical efficacy between the three, the information available on the results of the use of piezoelectric generators to treat musculoskeletal disorders is very limited.
The objective of this publication is to demonstrate the little existing evidence on piezoelectric generators and to highlight their versatility and promising future.

Keywords: Musculoskeletal disorders, Shock waves, ESWT, Piezoelectric.

Abstract

Novel coronavirus pneumonia (corona virus disease 2019, [COVID-19]) is a novel respiratory infectious disease that has rapidly spread in many countries or regions around the world [1, 2, 3] . With the approval of the State Council, COVID-19 was included in the category B infectious diseases under the Law of the People’s People’s Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases, and the preventive and control measures for category A infectious diseases were adopted. Given the severity of the COVID-19 epidemic, the wide spread of transmission, and the human-to-human transmission, some patients with musculoskeletal disorders visiting hospitals and health care
workers engaged in medical shockwave technology are at potential risk of COVID-19 infection. The 2022 Chinese expert consensus statement on the Management of Musculoskeletal Disease Extracorporeal Shock Wave during the Prevention and Control of Novel Coronavirus Epidemic is formulated..

Keywords: Chinese expert consensus, Extracorporeal shockwave, Management, Musculoskeletal disorders, Novel coronavirus pandemic.
