NCT ID: NCT05478902 Recruiting - Shoulder Pain Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Non-surgical Management in Rotator Cuff Calcific Tendinopathy (THE EFFECT TRIAL)

EFFECT
Start date: May 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study will be to compare the effectiveness of an exercise therapy program with extracorporeal shockwave therapy, ultrasound-guided percutaneous irrigation and a wait and see approach in people with rotator cuff calcific tendinopathy.

NCT ID: NCT04251832 Recruiting - Shoulder Pain Clinical Trials

Efficacy of Sodium Thiosulfate in Shoulder Pain in Calcific Tendinitis of the Rotator Cuff

Start date: January 1, 2020
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Calcific tendinitis of the rotator cuff is one of the most common causes of shoulder pain. Ultrasound guided percutaneous lavage (UGPL or barbotage or irrigation) of calcific tendinopathy is indicated when conservative treatments (physiotherapy, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) have failed. Our hypothesis is that lavage followed by intra-calcic injection of STS could fasten the dissolution of the calcific deposit. In view of the short half-life of this molecule the investigators hypothesize that this would happen within the first month after the procedure. Therefore, the investigatorschose to assess our primary objective at 1 month. Few studies have evaluated the short-term radiographic evolution after lavage.

NCT ID: NCT03779919 Recruiting - Calcific Tendinitis Clinical Trials

The Therapeutic Effect of the Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy on Shoulder Calcific Tendinitis

Start date: November 18, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Calcific tendinopathy of the shoulder is often self-limited with a relatively benign clinical course. Therefore, first-line therapy should be conservative and focused on symptom relief. However, studies show patients with Large volume deposits (e.g. ≥1500 mm3) and Subacromial extension of the deposits respond poorly to initial treatment such as analgesic medication, glucocorticoid injection, and physical therapy. For those refractory cases, extracorporeal shock wave therapy is introduced and shows resolution of symptoms and improvement in shoulder function in approximately 70 percent of patients. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy uses acoustic waves to fragment calcific deposits. Variables of the settings include dose (low or high energy), duration (impulses), and the interval of administration. However, an optimum value for the total cumulative dose of energy that should be administered has not yet been defined. Our study thus aim to find out the dosage effect of ESWT on the calcific debris sizes, pain, daily living functions, and shoulder range of motions in the calcific tendinitis patients.

Calcific Tendinitis: Comparing Minimally Invasive Modalities

Start date: July 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Calcific tendinitis is a common and challenging problem in the orthopedic surgeon's office. The chronic and variable course of the condition can lead to dissatisfaction with conservative management. Current standard of care at the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre is referral for treatment by either needle decompression therapy by a radiologist or shockwave therapy by a physiotherapist. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacies of these treatment options.

NCT ID: NCT01538758 Recruiting - Calcific Tendinitis Clinical Trials

Ultrasound Guided Needling Versus Ultrasound Guided Corticosteroid Injection Alone, a Randomized Controlled Trial.

BARB-01
Start date: July 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Ultrasound guided needling is becoming an accepted treatment for patients with shoulder pain due to calcifying tendinitis. However, evidence for this treatment is lacking. The investigators expect that patients treated with us guided needling with corticosteroid injection compared with patients treated with only corticosteroid injections in the subacromial bursa have better clinical outcome after one year follow-up.
