Filter by:Gluteal tendinopathy, a degenerative condition of the gluteal tendons, is a common cause of lateral hip pain. It is three times more common in women, affecting up to 25% of those aged over 40 years. Research evidence supporting the most effective interventions remains limited. A 2018 landmark three-arm RCT (LEAP trial) in Australia compared EDucation on load management plus eXercise (EDX) against corticosteroid injection (CSI), and a 'wait-and see' control on pain and global improvement in 205 individuals with gluteal tendinopathy (Mellor et al, 2016; 2018). Results showed superior and significant positive effects in the EDX group, compared with CSI and wait-and-see groups at 8 weeks and 1 year. A total of 14 EDX sessions was provided over 8 weeks in LEAP, but in the public healthcare system in Ireland, typically 5-6 physiotherapy treatments are provided. Therefore, whilst the LEAP trial demonstrated positive effects for EDX, implementation into clinical practice in Ireland is questionable as 6 or less treatment sessions are typically provided in public and private settings in Ireland (French et al, 2020). This two-arm feasibility RCT aims to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a future RCT of a reduced dose (6 sessions) of a recently proven efficacious physiotherapy treatment of EDucation plus eXercise (EDX-Ireland) to usual care for gluteal tendinopathy in an Irish setting. A Study Within A Trial will evaluate if exercise adherence is improved with use of a smartphone app compared with paper-based diaries.
Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome, also known as GTPS (Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome) is a complex clinical condition characterized by chronic and recurrent pain in the lateral region of the hip, near the greater trochanter of the femur. Biomechanical and anatomic-histologic interactions of the structures of the peri trochanteric space, in which, given the close anatomic-functional relationships, the origin can be traced to three different pathologic entities that may influence each other and fuel the progressive exacerbation of symptomatology. These are: external snap hip, trochanteric bursitis, and tendinopathies of the tendons of the gluteus mediums and gluteus minimums muscles. Recent studies regarding GTPS have shown that in most cases this condition is due to degenerative tendinopathy of the tendons of the gluteus minimums and gluteus mediums muscles. Tendinopathy is defined as a pathological condition associated with histological changes that may result in a change in the organization of collagen fibrils, relative increase in the percentage of proteoglycans, glycosaminoglycans, and no collagenous components of the ECM accompanied by neo-vascularization and inflammatory state. Tendinopathies thus result in painful symptomatology that very often also results in biomechanical functional deficit. Clinically, GTPS presents as pain that is often debilitating and exacerbated by activities such as walking, climbing stairs, and lying on the affected side at night, associated with a progressive loss of stenia in hip abduction movements. On objective examination, a point of tenderness (trigger point) is noted at the level of the region of the greater trochanter, which may radiate to the lumbar area and along the lateral aspect of the thigh to the ipsilateral knee and a difficulty on strength versus resistance tests in hip abduction movements. Although it is a very common syndrome, the treatment of painful grand trochanter syndrome, as well as that of tendinopathies in general, is still a major hurdle because the specific cellular pathogenetic and biomechanical etiopathogenetic mechanisms are still partly unknown and many treatments are empirical. Traditionally, the treatment of GTPS is initially conservative and includes rest, ice, NSAIDs and physiotherapy with stretching exercises of the fascia late. The use of corticosteroids, with systemic or local infiltrative intake, for the treatment of tendinopathies is highly controversial and, in any case, does not seem to have long-term efficacy. MD-Tissue Collagen Medical Device is an injectable medical device based on porcine collagen type I; the collagen content is 100µg/2mL. Porcine collagen is like human collagen and highly compatible; it has very low risks of inducing adverse effects and is therefore used in several clinical settings.
the aim of this study is to compare the effect of Axillary Phonophoresis versus Post isometric facilitation in subjects with Adhesive capsulitis
In this study, it was aimed to compare the effects of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) and high-intensity laser therapy (HILT) on shoulder joint range of motion, level of pain and functional status in patients with adhesive capsulitis
The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of Heavy Slow Resistance exercise in patients diagnosed with frozen shoulder using randomized controlled trial design
This study will be a randomized control trial conducted on 44 patients diagnosed as adhesive capsulitis in headquarter hospital Gujar khan. Subjects will be divided equally into 4 groups (n=11 in each group) that are Group A, B, C and D by sealed envelope method. Pre-intervention assessment will be done by using data collection tools and then intervention will be applied. Group A will receive mobilization with movement (MWM) technique along with Spencer's muscle energy technique (MET) with conventional therapy. Group B will receive MWM along with conventional therapy. Group C will receive Spencer's MET along with conventional therapy. Group D will receive conventional therapy alone. All subjects will be given a home exercise plan. Assessment will be done after 1st session, 1st week, 2nd week, 3rd week and finally after 2 weeks on follow up using data collection tool. Data collection tools are semi-structured questionnaire (informed consent, demographic details, goniometric measurements), Visual analogue scale (VAS), shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI) and universal goniometer.
