Brief Summary:
This study aimed to check and compare how well shock wave therapy works for tennis elbow, both in terms of symptoms and what we can see on ultrasound.
Detailed Description:
42 patients with tennis elbow were split into two groups by chance: one group received shock wave therapy (ESWT), while the other received a fake treatment (Sham-ESWT) for comparison. Both groups underwent wrist exercises, splint usage, and ice application. Grip strength, pain levels, and how well they could move their wrist (functionality) were measured before, after, and one month post-treatment using tests. Additionally, the thickness of a common extensor tendon (CET) was evaluated using ultrasound. The patient, the doctor checking the patient, and the doctor doing the ultrasound didn't know which group the patient was in.
