Abstract
: To determine the current rates of use of available image guidance modalities for large joint and bursal injections, in addition to their relationships to physician demographics. : An electronic survey was sent to 3,400 members of the American Medical Society for Sports Medicine (AMSSM), examining types of guidance used for each large joint and bursal injection. : A total of 674 sports medicine physicians responded to the survey. Intra-articular hip and glenohumeral joint injections were more commonly performed with ultrasound guidance, while palpation-guidance was more common with all other injections. Physicians who specialized in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation (PM&R) were more likely to use ultrasound for trochanteric bursa (p=0.007, OR =4.16 [1.46-11.8]), while internal medicine-, pediatrics-, and family medicine-trained physicians were more likely to use palpation guidance for at least one joint (p<0.05). Physicians with fewer years of experience were more likely to use ultrasound for glenohumeral joint injections (p≤0.002 for all age groups with less than 20 years of experience, ORs ranging from 6.3 - 9.2). : Palpation-guidance is the most common technique used for large joint and bursal injections, other than for glenohumeral and hip joint injections. PM&R-trained physicians and those with less experience tend to use ultrasound more frequently.
