Filter by:Rotator cuff tendonitis (RCT) is one of the most common shoulder pathologies, causing pain, limitation of shoulder joint movements, and impaired function. Patient education, medical treatment, corticosteroid injections, physiotherapy rehabilitation approaches are the most common treatment options applied to alleviate the symptoms of RCT. Despite these various treatment methods, there are currently no specific guidelines regarding the most appropriate and effective intervention for RCT treatment. This is mainly because adequate, high-quality studies are lacking in RCT management. To the best of our knowledge, no studies have evaluated the effects of Kinesio Taping (KT), which has become a popular approach in recent years, and Cold Therapy (CT), which has often been used as a therapeutic agent since immemorial, on individuals with RCT. In this regard, this study aimed to investigate and compare the short-term effects of KT and CT on pain and upper extremity functionality in individuals with RCT.
This study aimed to assess the longitudinal changes in triceps surae muscle-tendon architecture to an ultra distance trail running. Experienced trail runners (N=55, 78% men, age: 45.2 [13.5] years) participated in a 156-km trail run (6000m climbing) consisting in six 26-km laps. The resting architectural properties of triceps surae muscle-tendon were measured using ultrasound imaging for Achille tendon cross-sectional area (AT CSA), medial gastrocnemius muscle pennation angle, thickness, length and fiber length. Measurements were performed the day before the race (Baseline), at 52-km (T1), at 104-km (T2), at 156-km (T3) and 12 hours after the race (H12).
Background: Shoulder pain commonly affects the general population, with rotator cuff tendinopathy being the most common cause. the most common cause, with rotator cuff tendinopathy diminishing function and quality of life, leading to a major socio-economic impact. quality of life, leading to a major socio-economic impact. As a result, there are two treatment approaches with potential effectiveness: therapeutic exercise (TE) and myofascial trigger point treatment (TMT). trigger point treatment (TTP). Objective: The main objective of this randomised clinical trial is to determine the efficacy of ET versus treatment of MTPs in shoulder tendinopathies. Methods: For this study, 20 participants were randomly divided into two groups: a ET group, with which a 10-exercise programme was initiated (n = 10), and a PGM group which was given an intervention protocol (n = 10). intervention protocol (n = 10). Both received a total of 10 sessions. Pain intensity pain intensity, pressure pain threshold (PPT) and range of motion (ROM) were assessed before starting and after 10 sessions. and after 10 sessions.
To investigate the accuracy of shear-wave elastography (SWE) in diagnosing patellar tendinopathy in female volleyball and basketball players. In addition, we want to compare different parts of the patellar tendon and investigated the effects of different knee angles.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test if Plateth-rich plasma would provide improved pain relief and function in patients with rotator cuff tendinopathy compared to standard treatment of corticosterone injections. Researchers will compare a control group of patients treated with a corticosterone injection with a case group of patients treated with Plateth-rich plasma injection. The purpose of this study is to perform a double-blind randomized controlled trial, comparing PRP with corticosteroids to provide pain relief and improve function in patients with rotator cuff tendinopathy. The hypothesis of this study is that PRP would provide improved pain relief and function in patients with rotator cuff tendinopathy compared to standard treatment of CS injections.
Aim: To assess the influence of loading speed and intensity during eccentric heel drop exercise on the immediate changes in Achilles tendon thickness and stiffness in healthy controls. Intervention: Three eccentric heel drop exercise protocols, different in loading speed and/or loading intensity will be compared. Each participant will perform a single protocol per session in a random sequence at 1-week intervals. Participants: a total of 30 healthy athletes will be included. Outcome measure: tendon thickness and stiffness will be measured at baseline and immediately following intervention with ultrasound imaging (B-mode) and shear wave elastography, respectively. Discussion: the study will determine whether an eccentric exercise intervention involving a low loading speed and high intensity could maximize the immediate reduction in thickness and associated increase in stiffness of the Achilles tendon compared with interventions involving a higher loading speed and lower intensity.
Its a single blind RCT
Sayed Issa's Hybrid Shoulder Arthroscopic-Open Surgical Management (HSSM) is a limited lateral approach to the shoulder arthroscopically guided. Which achieves less surgical trauma and smaller surgical incision than even in Mini Lateral Shoulder Approach (MLSA).
The supraspinatus muscle tendinopathy show a big impact, however, there is a lack of awareness about the options of the physiotherapist treatment. It is necessary to do studies about effectiveness of therapeutic percutaneous electrolysis and neuromodulation. This technique enables treatment of the tendinopathies. To analyze the effectiveness of therapeutic percutaneou electrolysis and neuromodulation in the treatment of supraspinatus muscle tendinopathy. Single center randomized controlled trial, parallel treatment design. A specialist physician will be diagnosed the supraspinatus muscle tendinopathy. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive treatmen for 4 weeks: percutaneou electrolysis and neuromodulation associated with eccentric exercises or conventional treatment of Physiotherapy with the same eccentric exercises. Both interventions were performed under ultrasound guidance with a portable ultrasound (General Electric LogicE). Data will be collected by a blinded evaluator.
Our study is the first to use genipin, a naturally occurring collagen cross-linking agent, as a therapeutic agent to treat superficial digital flexor tendon (SDFT) injuries in horses. The promising approach of intratendinous genipin injection and tendon mechanical enhancement could be a viable alternative to current therapies for SDFT injuries.
