Active clinical trials for "Tennis Elbow"

The aim of this study was to investigate the exploration history, key theories, methods, and techniques involved in the evolution from the intracapsular method to the extracapsular method for arthroscopic treatment of tennis elbow, and explore the effectiveness and safety of extracapsular method on the basis of retrospective analysis of 43 cases.

Safety and performance of the study devices in extremities over a time period of 6 months after intervention.

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.

This is a retrospective study evaluating the safety and performance of the MINITAC Suture anchors for extremities repair. Data will be used to support Notified Body (BSI) requirements for extremities repair indications.

Lateral epicondylitis (LE) is the most common cause of lateral elbow pain. Intratissue percutaneous electrolysis (EPI technique) is a novel minimally invasive approach which consists in the application of a galvanic current through a puncture needle which produces a local inflammatory process in the soft tissue and the reparation of the affected tissue. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and ultrasonographic effectiveness of a multimodal program using the intratissue percutaneous electrolysis technique and exercises in the short term for patients with chronic lateral epicondylitis, and to determine whether the clinical outcomes achieved decline over time. This study is an observational one-way repeated measures design. 36 patients in a clinical setting presenting with lateral epicondylitis (mean age = 38, mean time since injury = 12.6 months) received one session of EPI per week over 4-6 weeks, associated with a home program of eccentric exercise and stretching. The main outcome measures were severity of pain (VAS, digital algometer, Cozen and Thompson tests), disability (DASH questionnaire), structural tendon changes (ultrasound), hypervascularity (power doppler) and patient's perceptions of overall outcome (4-point scale). Measurements at 6, 26 and 52 weeks follow-up included recurrence rates (increase of severity of pain or disability compared to discharge), the perception of overall outcome and success rates. Paired Student t-tests and Chi squared tests were applied to data. Enrollment into this study ended in September 2012. All outcome measures registered significant improvements between pre-intervention and discharge. Most patients (30, i.e. 83.3%) rated overall outcome as 'successful' at 6 weeks. The ultrasonographic finding revealed that the hypoechoic regions and hypervascularity of the extensor carpi radialis brevis change significantly. At 26 and 52 weeks, all participants (32) perceived a 'successful' outcome. Recurrence rates were null after discharge, and at the 6, 26 and 52 week follow-ups.

This study retrospectively analysed surgical outcomes of consecutive 50 cases to investigate the technical standard and clinical effect of extracapsular arthroscopic treatment for refractory tennis elbow.

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.

To evaluate the acute and long-term clinical outcomes of tenotomy with the TenJet System in patients with elbow tendinosis.

The study aims to investigate the natural course and the results of operative treatment of chronic tennis elbow (TE). Chronic is defined as symptoms having lasted for more than a year. The investigators will also study the effect of pain catastrophising on the subjective outcome, the patient acceptable symptomatic state and the response shift phenomenon in TE. The study will also ascertain the feasibility of a multi-center randomised, controlled trial (RCT), and test and refine the co-operation and interaction of the planned RCT centers.

Grip strength can be decreased in lateral epicondylitis. Pinch strength is also affected in people suffering from lateral epicondylitis. In this study, participants will be evaluated using a hydraulic dynamometer, a pinch meter and we will evaluate pain, disability and quality of life.
