Filter by:The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the use of low-dose nitroglycerin transdermal patches to treat pain and function in chronic tennis elbow.
Some studies valued the effectiveness of botulinum toxin. Results are contradictory and we need more studies. The purpose of the study is to compare the effectiveness of botulinum toxin injection with placebo in the treatment of tennis elbow unrelieved by usual medical care performed during 6 months. Method : It is a double blind randomized controlled trial. Principal criteria of assessment is Pain intensity three months after injection.
The intent of this double-blinded study is to investigate the short (2 months) and long-term (over 2 months) therapeutic capabilities of Iontophoresis.
Humeral lateral epicondylitis or tennis elbow is a common painful elbow disorder. The cause of tennis elbow is the chronic overload of bone-tendon junction. High prevalence of tennis elbow has a direct impact on the workplace productivity and quality of life. Steroid injection is the very few methods proved to have short-term efficacy in tennis elbow treatment, but it has potential adverse effects like tendon rupture. Temporary paralysis of muscle after botulinum toxin injection may reduce the physical demands and facilitate the normal repair mechanism during recovery. Preliminary studies suggested that botulinum toxin injection is effective in treating tennis elbow. The objective of this study is to compare the effects of botulinum toxin injection with corticosteroid injection in tennis elbow treatment.
The purpose of this project is to compare different treatment options for lateral epicondylitis. Lateral epicondylitis is a pain condition involving extensor muscles fo the forearm originating from the lateral epicondyle. Controversy exists regarding the method of delivering pain relief so that conditioning and strengthening can be initiated and progress appropriately. Our hypothesis is that the steady even delivery via iontophoresis (compared to injection will provide better pain control and allow physical therapy to progress more effectively.
The purpose of the research is to study the effects of two different injection therapies for the treatment of lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow). Specifically, we will look at which therapy provides better short and long-term relief of pain, which treatment allows better function and less disability, and which treatment gives back better strength in the affected hand. Each subject will receive only one of the two treatments. Although both of these treatments are usually very well tolerated, it is important to make this comparison because it is believed that one of these therapies may have better long term effectiveness, with a lower cost, and smaller number of potential side effects.
Tennis elbow is a painful condition that results from repetitive arm movement with overuse of muscles, e.g. when playing tennis. A single injection of ALGRX 4975 has the potential to reduce pain for a period of weeks to months. This study will test the efficacy and safety of ALGRX 4975 in the treatment of patients with tennis elbow.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Botulinum A toxin is effective in the treatment of tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis).
This randomised controlled trial will evaluate the role of manual therapy and therapeutic exercise and corticosteroid injections in the treatment of lateral epicondylalgia (tennis elbow).
