Study population: Subjects with long standing symptoms from calcific tendonitis,
non-responsive to other forms of conservative treatment
Study method: A cohort of 50 patients with symptomatic calcific tendonitis will be treated by
ultrasound-guided needle lavage. At baseline all study subjects will be assessed by clinical
examination, imaging of the shoulder by x-ray and sonography and by the self-report section
of the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score (ASES). Follow-up will be performed after 1
and 4 weeks (score only), 3 (clinical, score, ultrasound, x-ray), 6 and 12 months (score
only), and after 24 months (clinical, score, ultrasound, x-ray). Patients with insufficient
treatment effect will be offered physiotherapy, re-lavage or surgical treatment by
acromioplasty.
Purpose of the study: The investigators want to find out
- if shoulder function, measured by a shoulder score, will increase during follow-up
- how much of the calcific material can be aspirated (in ml)
- to which extend the calcific deposit disappears on x-rays and sonographic images
- how many patients will need surgical treatment

Other | Size of the calcific deposit as determined on X-rays of the affected shoulder | Standardized X-rays of the shoulder are taken at baseline, 3 and 24 month follow-up and the size of the calcific deposits will be measured and compared between examinations | Baseline to 3 months and 24 months | |
Primary | The self-report section of the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score (ASES) | The self-report section of the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score (ASES) consists of two equally weighted parts for pain and shoulder function, each contributing 50 points to a maximum score of 100. Pain measurement is performed on a 10 cm visual analogue scale divided into 1 cm increments. Shoulder function is measured by classifying 10 activities of daily living on a four-point ordinal scale. Change in points on the ASES scale from baseline to 24 month follow-up is the primary outcome measure of our study. | Baseline and 24 months | |
Secondary | Number of patients who need operative treatment during follow-up | Baseline to 24 months |
