Clinical Trial Summary

Lateral epicondylitis is an overuse syndrome of the forearm, which is associated with pain and sensitivity in the lateral elbow region.

The aim of the study was to find out about is there any difference between the effects of traditional orthotic devices and adhesive taping, in the management of lateral epicondylitis. Therefore, the forearm counterforce brace, which was widely used in daily clinical practice for lateral epicondylitis, was compared with kinesio tape, a new technique of adhesive taping which has become increasingly popular. The study investigated and compared the effects of the two interventions (the forearm counterforce brace and kinesio tape) on pain severity, functional status and disability of patients with lateral epicondylitis.
