Tennis Elbow Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effectiveness of Diacutaneous Fibrolysis on Chronic Lateral Epicondylitis. A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Diacutaneous Fibrolysis (DF) is a manual method of treatment, usually adjuvant, addressed to
the mechanical pain of the locomotor system. In our clinical practice a favorable effect is
observed in patients with chronic lateral epicondylitis, but there are no published studies
evaluating the results of this technique.
The objective of this trial is to evaluate if DF provides a further improvement in pain
intensity, pain-pressure threshold, function and pain-free grip strength, in patients with
chronic lateral epicondylitis being treated with physiotherapy. For this purpose, we conduct
a randomized controlled trial, double-blind (patient and evaluator) in a Public Primary Care
Center.
Sixty subjects will be randomized (computer application) into three groups: Intervention
Group, Placebo Group and Control Group. All the three groups receive the same protocolized
treatment of physiotherapy and additionally. Additionally, the Intervention Group receives
six sessions (two sessions in a week during three weeks) of real DF and the Placebo Group
receives six sessions (two sessions in a week during three weeks) of sham DF. The Control
Group receives the protocolized treatment of physiotherapy only.
Pain intensity (VAS), pain-pressure threshold (pressure algometry), function (DASH
questionnaire) and pain-free grip strength (digital dynamometer) will be measured at
baseline, after treatment period, and three months after discharge from treatment. After
discharge for treatment the patient subjective opinion about their evolution will be
collected through the Global Rating of Change (GROC) scale.
