Filter by:Open-label study to be conducted at 2 US investigational sites in subjects who have acute tendonitis or bursitis of the shoulder, elbow, or knee. Eligible subjects receive treatment with the KTP, applied once daily at the same application site for 3 consecutive days.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate etoricoxib efficacy in pain control, leg stiffness and functional recovery of patients suffering acute Achilles tendinopathy. It is hypothesized that etoricoxib (120mg orally/day/7 days) efficacy is not inferior to diclofenac (150mg orally /day/7 days) for pain control in subjects suffering acute Achilles tendinopathy.
In the first part of the the study two new outcome measurements (force reproducibility and subacromial space) will be tested for reproducibility. Therefore 30 healthy people will be assessed. In a second part of the study 60 patients will be randomly allocated to two groups. Group A (n=30) will perform a traditional training program and group B (n=30) will perform an eccentric training program. Before the onset of the training programs, pain, function, maximal force, range of motion, subacromial space and force reproducibility will be assessed. Both training programs will be accomplished at home. The first six weeks there will be an appointment with the therapist once a week to explain, correct and when necessary, aggravate the exercises. The next six weeks these appointments will be diminished to once every two weeks. After 6 and after 12 weeks of training the patients will be reassessed for all the parameters.
The study will be a double-blind randomized single-center clinical trial comparing 3 treatment groups with chronic midportion Achilles tendinopathy.
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of once daily application of a diclofenac sodium patch to the skin near or over the painful area. In this study, the location being studied will be one of the following: the affected shoulder, elbow, or wrist. The secondary purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of the diclofenac patch on the subject's skin, in the location being studied.
This is a research study to evaluate the outcomes after the study procedure for pain and discomfort in the heel caused from an injury in the Achilles tendon which is located on the back of the foot (commonly called "Achilles tendinitis"-Achilles tendinosis) that has not gotten better with medicine and/or other therapy. Researchers want to see if using the study device changes outcomes for 1 year after the study procedure.
We will investigate the effect of peritendinous corticosteroid injections, eccentric training and heavy resistance training in male patellar tendinopathy patients. The purpose is to compare the clinical effect of these three treatments in a randomised controlled trial. Also we wish to investigate the treatment mechanisms responsible for the effectiveness of the three treatments.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether LED phototherapy using combined red and near infrared light (approved: Ministry of Health of Russian Federation No. 29/06070997/1080-00, EUROCAT Certificate No. CP033321-IV) is effective in the treatment of musculoligamentous lesions in physiotherapy practice
Chronic achilles tendinopathy is a common disease especially in adults. The golden standard in treatment has up to now been excentric exercises but with varying success. A new hypothesis is that this chronic pain is due to neo vascularisation. In a pilot study sclerosing injections with polidocanol have had a successful efficacy. Our aim is to study the efficacy of polidocanol as a treatment in a randomised controlled setting on a larger scale.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of a ketoprofen topical patch on the pain associated with tendonitis or bursitis of the shoulder, elbow or knee.
