Active clinical trials for "Tendinopathy"

The aim of this study is to collect a sum of different characteristics that have been mentioned previously in people presenting with RCRSP and by clustering them to create a phenotype system which may assist the individualisation of their management

Achilles tendinitis is a common condition that cause pain along back of leg near the heal. It is an overuse injury of the Achilles tendon, the band of tissue that connect calf muscles at the back of the lower leg to heel bone. There are number of treatment approaches to relieve pain in Achilles tendonitis . Insufficient literature has discuss the combine effect of myofascial release with eccentric resistance. So the aim of the study is to compare the effect of myofascial release with eccentric resistance and without eccentric resistance on pain , range of motion and functional disability in patient with Achilles tendinitis

To determine the effects of functional kinesio taping on subacromial space in athletes with rotator cuff tendinopathy.

The aim of study is to investigate the effect of Phonophoresis with topical glyceryl trinitrate versus traditional treatment in in patients with non-insertional Achilles tendinopathy.

It is aimed to compare in the early period the clinical and ultrasonographic findings in terms of the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided subacromial bursa injection with corticosteroid and ultrasound-guided lavage, which are the treatment options available in the literature for patients with calcific tendinitis who do not respond to conservative treatment.

This study aims at determine if Progressive Heavy Load Exercises (PHLE) as treatment for patients diagnosed with Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy is superior to "Standard Low-Load Exercises" (LLE).

To determine whether spa therapy has a beneficial effect on pain and disability in the management of shoulder pain due to chronic rotator cuff lesions, this multicentre randomized prospective clinical trial includes patients with shoulder pain due to chronic degenerative rotator cuff tendinopathy who attend French spa resorts as outpatients. Subjects are randomized into two groups: immediate spa therapy (18 days of standardized treatment) and control (spa therapy delayed for 6 months). All patients continue usual treatments during the 6-month follow-up period. The main endpoint is the mean change in the DASH score at 6 months. Secondary endpoints are the mean change in SF-36 components, treatments used, and tolerance. The effect size of spa therapy is calculated and the proportion of patients reaching minimal clinically important improvement (MCII) is compared between groups.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of various treatment soft tendinosis also known as tendinitis.

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), an electrostimulation technique known to modulate the motor cortex excitability, has been shown to enhance the effects of rehabilitation in populations with neurological injuries. tDCS could similarly be effective in individuals with rotator cuff (RC) tendinopathy, as this pathology is also associated with pain and motor control deficits. For the treatment of RC tendinopathy, sensorimotor training is effective to reduce pain, increase function and enhance motor control of the shoulder. The addition of tDCS during sensorimotor training could enhance motor learning associated with sensorimotor training and thus improve treatment outcome. PURPOSE: To compare, in terms of symptoms, functional limitations and shoulder control, a group receiving a rehabilitation program centered on sensorimotor training combined with tDCS to a group receiving the same rehabilitation program combined with sham tDCS in individuals with RC tendinopathy. METHODS: Forty adults with RC tendinopathy will take part in the 4 evaluation sessions (0, 3, 6, 12 weeks) and a 6-week rehabilitation program. Outcome measures will be symptoms and functional limitations (Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand and the Western Ontario Rotator Cuff index), as well as acromiohumeral distance ([AHD] ultrasonographic measurement at 0° and 60° of elevation arm). The rehabilitation program will include sensorimotor training, strengthening and education. tDCS will be apply during sensorimotor training on the motor cortex contralateral to the side of pain. A 2-way ANOVA will be used to analyse the effects of tDCS on the outcomes.

Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is characterized by pain over the greater trochanter, which can refer down the lateral aspect of the hip. Historically, conservative treatments such as rest/activity modification, anti-inflammatory medication, physiotherapy and local corticosteroid injection, are employed as first-line management, with some refractory cases requiring surgical intervention. Acknowledging the unpredictable response and frequent recurrences associated with traditional non operative treatment, the risks and prolonged rehabilitation associated with surgery, and the favorable results from prior studies involving radial pressure waves as a treatment for GTPS, the aim of this study is to investigate the dose-related effect of focalized shockwave treatment at different total energy influx in patients with chronic GTPS.
