Clinical Trial Summary

Objectives: This study aims to evaluate and compare the short-term efficacy of high-intensity laser therapy (HILT) and extra corporeal shock wave therapy(ESWT) on pain, sensitivity, handgrip strength, and functions in the treatment of lateral epicondylitis (LE). Material and methods: Forty five participants (age range, 18 to 65 years) with unilateral elbow pain were randomized into two groups. HILT group (n = 22) and the ESWT group (n = 23). The HILT and ESWT were administered three times a week for three weeks, and each treatment was combined with exercises. All patients in both groups were evaluated with ultrasonography for common extensor tendon(CET) thickness. A visual analog scale (VAS), Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (QDASH), and hand grip strength test were used to evaluate the patients before, one, and six weeks after treatment.
