Hello, All,
Our outpatient department is considering developing a protocol for patients
prior to and following MUA of the lumbar and cervical spines. I undertook a
literature search 2 years ago, and found nothing on the usefulness of mua.
We are carrying out a second search, but I would be grateful for any
thoughts from the clinical or academic sphere on the subject of mua. I am
quietly sceptical of the value of spinal mua, but my views are very much
experiential.
Thank you for your contributions,
Mike Cassidy

Mike,
You might have more luck finding info by calling Osteopathic hospitals. I
worked at an Osteopathic hospital in 1990 in Michigan and MUA were common
procedures.
