Influence of Placebo on Intratissue Percutaneous Electrolysis in Patellar Tendinopathy
Patellar TendinopathyThe main aim of this study is to verify the influence of placebo on the effectiveness of Intratissue Percutaneous Electrolysis (IPE) in patients suffering from with chronic patellar tendinopathy (PT). The secondary aim is to investigate the possible influence of the IPE on pain perception and conditioned pain modulation (CPM) in patients with chronic PT.

Pecs II Block Versus Surgeon Infiltration for Open Subpectoral Biceps Tenodesis
TendonitisA phase IV, randomized, single-blind, single-center study measuring the effects of Pecs II block with 0.25% bupivacaine versus surgeon infiltration with 0.25% bupivacaine on postoperative pain control and opioid utilization in participants who undergo open subpectoral tenodesis.
A Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability and Preliminary Efficacy of NGI226 Microparticles...
Achilles TendinopathyThe purpose of this study is to measure local and systemic safety and tolerability as well as improvement of Achilles tendon mechanical properties after a single peritendon injection of NGI226 MP in comparison to placebo MP in patients with mid-portion Achilles tendinopathy.
Resistance Training and Injection Treatment for Chronic Achilles Tendinopathy
Achilles TendinopathyAchilles tendinopathy is a common and often long-lasting injury among exercising individuals. The primary purpose of the study is to compare treatment with supervised or homebased resistance training. The secondary purpose is to compare treatment with either corticosteroid or High Volume Injection (HVI) for those patients not responding to the primary treatment. The tertiary purpose is to evaluate the effect of surgery in those patients not responding to the primary and the secondary treatment. It is hypothesized that: Homebased resistance training is as effective as supervised resistance training for treating chronic achilles tendinopathy HVI injection is better than CS injection for those patients not responding sufficiently to treatment 1 Surgery improves symptoms in patients not responding to treatment 1 and treatment 2 Study 1: 90 patients between 18 and 65 years of age with achilles tendinopathy for at least 3 months are randomly assigned to either A. Resistance training at home instructed via a smart phone training app and avoidance of pain aggravating activities for 3 months B. Heavy slow resistance training in the gym instructed by a physiotherapist and avoidance of pain aggravating activities for 3 months Outcomes are change in patient reported outcome (VISA-A) from baseline to 3 and 6 months, ultrasound measured thickness and dopler activity of the achilles tendon, self reported activity level in percentage of the pre injury activity level. After the 3-month training intervention, and for the following 9 months, those patients that not are satisfied with the outcome will have the opportunity to participate in the second part of the study. Study 2: Patients from study 1 which not are satisfied with the outcome are randomly assigned to either A. Same training intervention continued + High Volume Injection (HVI) B. Same training intervention continued + corticosteroid injection After the 4-month and for the following 8 months, those patients that not are satisfied with the outcome will have the opportunity to participate in the third part of the study. Study 3: Patients from study 2 which not are satisfied with the outcome are operated
Use of Extended Release Triamcinolone in the Treatment of Rotator Cuff Disease
Rotator Cuff TearsRotator Cuff Tendinitis3 moreThe primary objective of this study is to assess the overall safety and general tolerability of extended release triamcinolone acetate (TA-ER/FX006) in patient with rotator cuff disease. The study will enroll 65 patients, aged 40-75 years old, in a longitudinal case series level IV study using extended release triamcinolone to treat shoulder pain from rotator cuff disease. Inclusion criteria will be shoulder pain without a history of trauma and physical exam consistent with rotator cuff tendinitis, impingement syndrome or rotator cuff tear.
Investigation of the Efficacy of Telerehabilitation in Patients With Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy
Rotator Cuff InjuriesRotator Cuff TendinitisThe goal of this study is to investigate the effect of telerehabilitation in patients with rotator cuff tendinopathy. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is telerehabilitation effective in improving the functional status of patients with rotator cuff tendinopathy? Is telerehabilitation effective in reducing the pain of rotator cuff patients?
Achillestendinopathy Treated With Proximal Medial Gastrocnemius Recession
Achilles TendinopathyChronic PainThis is a prospective cohort study that will follow 60 patients treated with Proximal Medial Gastrocnemius Recession for Chronic Mid-Portion Achilles Tendinopathy for 5 years postoperatively.
Group-based Exercise Training Programs for Military Members With Musculoskeletal Conditions
Musculoskeletal PainLow Back Pain3 moreThis randomized controlled trial will compare the mid- and long-term effects of group-based training programs with usual individual physiotherapy care for the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders in military. One hundred and twenty soldiers presenting one of the four targeted musculoskeletal disorders (low back pain, rotator cuff related pain, patellofemoral pain syndrome or lateral ankle sprain) will be recruited and randomly assigned to either a 12-weeks group-based training program or 12-weeks usual individual physiotherapy care.
