Filter by:Trial Design: The Norwegian Tennis Elbow (NOTE) study is a single-centre; three-armed, feasibility randomised controlled trial. Aim: The primary aim of this study is to pilot the methods proposed to conduct a definite RCT study. Objectives: - Measure the process of recruitment. - Measure intervention adherence and acceptability. - Measure outcome measure retention rate and completeness. The Patient-Rated Tennis Elbow Evaluation (PRTEE) will be used as the primary outcome measure. Intervention: Patients will be randomised to either: 1) Heavy slow resistance training (HSR), 2) Radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy (rESWT) or 3) Information and advice. Follow-up will be after 3 and 6 months.
In this study, the difference in effectiveness between PELOID therapy and kinesio tape in the treatment of lateral epicondylitis; It was planned to evaluate the effects of these treatments on pain, functionality, activities of daily living and quality of life.
Lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow) is an enthesopathy seen in 1-2% of the population aged 30-65 years, which can occur in the lateral epicondyle origo of the extensor carpi radialis brevis and longus muscles, after frequently repetitive activities and can lead to limitations in the daily life activities of the patients. The diagnosis is made by anamnesis and clinical examination, cases that last more than 3 months are defined as chronic lateral epicondylitis. Treatment options are analgesics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, hand-wrist splints, eccentric strengthening exercises for forearm muscles and wrist dorsiflexors, injection therapies, physical therapy agents such as therapeutic ultrasound, ESWT(extracorporeal shockwave therapy), low-level laser therapy, and surgery. Prolotherapy is a treatment method that is performed with repetitive injections of a small amount of irritant or sclerosing solutions such as hypertonic dextrose, phenol-glycerin-glucose, or sodium morrhuate and aims to activate the healing process by increasing the blood flow around the damaged tendinopathy or enthesopathy area with the effect of these solutions. Hypertonic dextrose solutions in concentrations ranging from 12.5-20% are frequently used in prolotherapy. Prolotherapy can be done with ultrasound guidance or by determining anatomical landmarks. The injection is applied to the annular ligament, lateral epicondyle, and supracondylar area where the forearm extensor muscles adhere. Injection side effects and complications are pain, bruising, muscle spasm, nerve or vessel damage at the injection site. Based on previous studies, the low dose of dextrose solutions (1%, 5%, and 10%) may have a similar effect with fewer side effects than higher concentrations of dextrose solutions (15%, 20%, 25%) and the low dose may have fewer cell damage. Thus, it may be possible to apply an effective treatment method with fewer side effects in the treatment of lateral epicondylitis. Also, in this study, the effect of inflammation created by injection of saline in one group and the inflammatory, proliferative and angiogenic effects of dextrose injected in other groups at different concentrations on the treatment outcome will be compared.
This study is testing a drug called TenoMiR that is being developed for the treatment of tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis). The study drug is a new compound that works by improving the quality of the collagen which helps repair damage to the elbow. The study drug is being developed in the hope of providing a more reliable treatment than those currently available and can be given at the time of first diagnosis, so that recovery can begin as soon as possible.
Lateral epicondylalgia is a common musculoskeletal condition that approximately affects 1-3% of the general population. Several authors have found greater mechanical pain sensitivity in the radial nerve when compared with healthy subjects. Radial tunnel syndrome exhibits a similar clinical presentation to lateral epicondylalgia. Percutaneous electrical stimulation has shown reduce pain in several conditions. Percutaneous electrical stimulation on the radial nerve could cause an important relief in lateral epicondylalgia. Hypothesis: Percutaneous electrical stimulation on radial nerve plus in patients with lateral epicondylalgia is better than sham percutaneous electrical stimulation
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate which cold application is more effective to regulate skin temperature in patients with lateral epicondylitis. Materials and Methods: Fifty-four patients with lateral epicondylitis were randomly divided into 2 groups as cooling gel (n=27) group and cold pack (n=27) group. Cooling gel and cold pack applications were applied on painful lateral epicondyle region for 15 minutes. Patients were assessed before and after the application. Assessments included the severity of pain during wrist extension, evaluated by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and thermal imaging of lateral epicondyle region evaluated by Infrared Thermography (FLIR5 Thermal Camera).
Lateral epicondylitis is a degenerative tendinosis of the extensor carpi radialis brevis muscle and is the most common work/sports-related chronic musculoskeletal problem affecting the elbow. This randomized, double-blinded, controlled study aimed to evaluate the short term and residual effectiveness of the Kinesio taping method on pain, grip force, quality of life, and functionality.
In this study, the effects of mulligan and muscle energy techniques on pain, grip strength and functionality will be investigated in a randomized controlled manner in individuals with lateral epicondylitis. Various treatments have been tried in patients with lateral epicondylitis whose daily activities are restricted in order to reduce pain and increase functions. Among them, conservative and physical therapy agents have an important place. There are many studies in the literature evaluating the effects of mobilization in LE treatment. However, there are no definitive data on the long-term efficacy and benefits of all these treatment methods. Mulligan and muscle energy techniques can be used in lateral epicondylitis due to many positive reasons such as being effective in a short time, giving fast results, high success rate, risk-free and painless in the case of specialists. Thanks to the findings obtained from our study, it is aimed to contribute to the literature with objective, evidence-based results in this field.
Lateral epicondylitis is an overuse syndrome of the forearm, which is associated with pain and sensitivity in the lateral elbow region. The aim of the study was to find out about is there any difference between the effects of traditional orthotic devices and adhesive taping, in the management of lateral epicondylitis. Therefore, the forearm counterforce brace, which was widely used in daily clinical practice for lateral epicondylitis, was compared with kinesio tape, a new technique of adhesive taping which has become increasingly popular. The study investigated and compared the effects of the two interventions (the forearm counterforce brace and kinesio tape) on pain severity, functional status and disability of patients with lateral epicondylitis.
To explore whether there is a difference in the rate of tendon tear after hyperlipemia in tennis elbow patients and those with normal blood lipids after closed treatment, which provides clues for further exploration of its mechanism. 1. Collect data from 108 cases of tennis elbow patients treated at the Institute of Sports Medicine, Peking University Third Hospital from January 2010 to December 2018 at the Institute of Sports Medicine, Peking University Third Hospital. Statistics included the sex, age, BMI, number of closures, total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein. 2. Retrieve the MRI imaging data of the above-mentioned patients, and use the extensor tendon at the humerus to see if there is a tear as an observation indicator. Analyze the difference of tendon tear after closed treatment in patients with high blood fat and normal blood fat.
