Efficacy Bioinductive Implant for Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis)

Tennis ElbowLateral Epicondylitis

The investigators are testing the efficacy of a new, FDA-approved bioinductive patch in lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow) patients. A bioinductive patch is an implant that may foster tendon regrowth and healing following surgery. Patients will be randomize into one of two groups: control and investigational. Patients in the "control group" will receive the normal surgery for patients who do not respond to physical therapy, lifestyle changes, and anti-inflammatory treatment. Patients in the "experimental group" will receive the same surgical treatment, with the addition of the bioinductive patch. This patch will be implanted during surgery. Then, using a combination of ultrasound studies and other measures, the investigators will assess how well the patch works compared to surgery alone.

Comparing Injection Treatments for Tennis Elbow

Tennis ElbowLateral Epicondylitis1 more

Tennis elbow is one of the most common musculoskeletal problems affecting the arm and is thought to be mainly due to overuse of the muscles that extend the wrist. The pain arises from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus, where the tendons of the wrist extensor muscles attach. There are many treatment options available for tennis elbow including oral medication, physiotherapy and injection therapy. Surgical options are reserved for those who fail to respond to more conservative treatments. Physiotherapy is a widely used, non-invasive treatment option for the management of tennis elbow. Research has shown that in the longer term, physiotherapy is superior to corticosteroid injection in the treatment of tennis elbow and a meta-analysis of published research concluded that Platelet Rich Plasma injection and Hyaluronic Acid injection are superior to corticosteroid for long term pain relief in tennis elbow. At present there is not enough evidence to indicate what the 'Gold Standard' treatment for tennis elbow is, and more research is therefore needed to help guide decision-making. The aim of this study is therefore to examine the effects of injection therapy in addition to physiotherapy treatment, in comparison to physiotherapy and a control injection on pain and function in patients with tennis elbow. All participants in this study will undergo a structured, specifically designed, class-based physiotherapy intervention, in addition to being randomly allocated to receive one of the following three types of injection: (a) a control injection whereby a needle is inserted into the skin but no therapeutic substance is injection, (b) a single therapeutic injection of platelet-rich plasm or (c) a single therapeutic injection of hyaluronic acid. Baseline data will be collected at the time of recruitment and participants will be followed up at 3 months and 12 months post treatment. Outcomes will be assessed using various patient-reported outcome measures in addition to clinical examination. The primary outcome for this study is the improvement in the quick DASH score at 12 months post-treatment compared to baseline.

Leukocyte-rich PRP or Leukocyte-free PRP vs Placebo in the Treatment of Epicondylitis

Tennis Elbow

The EPIC-PRP study is a double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial with 1:1:1 allocation.The objective of the study is to evaluate by means of a randomized controlled, double-blind clinical trial the clinical outcomes of echo-guided injection of PRP with or without leukocytes compared with echo-guided injection of saline for minimally invasive treatment of patients with epicondylitis resistant to conservative therapy. It will be the aim of the study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the injection procedures by revealing the improvement and incidence of adverse events following treatment

Blood Flow Restriction & Tennis Elbow Rehab

Lateral Epicondylitis

Lateral epicondylitis (LE), often referred to as "tennis elbow" is a common and debilitating overuse injury affecting 1-3% of adults annually. LE is most often defined as a syndrome of pain near the area of the lateral epicondyle of the elbow commonly effecting the origin of the extensor carpi radialis brevis with associated weakness; it most commonly effects the dominant arm. The best treatment for LE is unknown and research to support current treatment methods are insufficient. A common limitation in functional recovery experienced by this population is pain at the lateral aspect of the elbow. As such, innovative therapeutic interventions directed at quickly reducing pain may address this unmet need and allow for improved outcomes, as well as earlier return to function.

Investigation of the Efficacy of Blood Flow Restricted Training in Lateral Elbow Tendinopathy

Lateral EpicondylitisTennis Elbow1 more

The investigators believe that blood flow-restricted training can result in increased caste hypertrophy and strength without stressing the tendon in lateral elbow tendinopathy, and that changes in local metabolic activities can be effective in the process of tendon healing. The researchers' aim in the study is to investigate the effectiveness of blood flow restriction training in lateral elbow tendinopathy for 8 weeks, in addition to the 2 days a week multi-modal physiotherapy program, which will be applied by limiting blood flow by 40-50% occlusion recommended for the upper extremity using the patient's systolic pressure to the severity of 20-30% of 1 maximum repetition, 75 repetitions including 30-15-15-15 repetitions and 30 seconds rest period between sets, remaining attached to the recommended 10-15 minutes period for the top extremity.

Elbow Artery Embolization for Tennis Elbow

Lateral EpicondylitisUnspecified Elbow

The purpose of this clinical research study is to examine whether embolization treatment of an elbow artery is a safe and effective way to treat elbow pain, specifically pain from tennis elbow. Embozene is a medical device made by Varian marketed in the United States for the treatment of hypervascular tumors and arteriovenous malformations. It consists of thousands of microscopic spheres that are injected into the artery to block the flow of blood to a specific region. One of the causes of pain in the setting of tennis elbow is increased blood flow going to the specific area of pain. In this study, we will investigate an experimental procedure to decrease the blood flow (embolize) to the specific region of the elbow that is causing the pain. This will be done by infusing Embozene particles into the specific blood vessel supplying the area of pain in the elbow. This is an investigational study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of elbow artery embolization (EAE) for the treatment of symptomatic lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow).
