Achilles Tendinopathy Clinical Trial
Official title:
Low-temperature Radiofrequency Coblation Micro-tenotomy for the Treatment of Achilles Tendinopathy; a Multicentre, Prospective, Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.
This is a prospective randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled superiority trial with two parallel groups and a 1:1 allocation ratio to investigate the effectiveness of radiofrequency coblation micro-tenotomy for patients with Achilles tendinopathy. All participants will be randomized into two groups: the intervention group (n=24; radiofrequency coblation micro-tenotomy + endoscopic Achilles debridement) and the control group (n=24; endoscopic Achilles debridement only). Adults (age >18) with clinically diagnosed midportion Achilles tendinopathy will be recruited and scheduled for ultrasound screening. All participants will undergo a 12-week eccentric exercise program taught by a registered physiotherapist / athletic trainer. Undergo Endoscopic Achilles debridement and Radiofrequency coblation micro-tenotomy intervention. Criteria for discontinuing or modifying allocated interventions, Strategies to improve adherence to interventions, Relevant concomitant care permitted or prohibited during the trial and Provisions for post-trial care. Outocme measure will use VISA-A, pain scores, ultrasound measurement of thickness and vascularity, calf muscle strength, and ankle range of motion.
