| Main Objective: The main objective of the research project is design and develop an effective and simple tool for locating the most suitable area for the administration of botulinum neurotoxin type A (BoNTA), based on electromyography;Secondary Objective: 1. Design, create and implement a comfortable, robust system for recording the EMG signal of pelvic floor for clinical use with needle and surface electrodes. 2. Quantify and characterize the electrophysiological activity associated with chronic and normal pelvic pain 3. Compare, identify and evaluate the electrophysiological activity of the musculature of Pelvic floor once treated with BoNTA. 4. Develop signal processing techniques for replacing needle electrodes with disposable surface electrodes for locating motor units. 5. Evaluate the response in patients according to the clinical tests we use in clinical practice.;Primary end point(s): R.1. EMG registration system tested and validated. R.2. Electrophysiological recordings and clinical parameters of Pelvic Floor EMG database R3. Electrophysiological parametrization of Pelvic Floor EMG;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: N/A | — |
