IRCT20190626044015N1 IRCT 2019-08-04 Semnan University of Medical Sciences Efficacy of shock wave therapy in the treatment of tennis elbow in athletes using sonography Efficacy of extracorporeal shock wave therapy in the treatment of lateral epicondylitis in athletes using ultrasonography 2019-08-23 anticipated 25 Complete https://irct.ir/trial/40627 interventional Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Other design features: Examples include athletes who are brought to the attention of sports federations, who will begin treatment with the approval of the center, Randomization description: Simple randomization by lottery means that at the beginning of the study and in the first referring patient, the group names are written in 2 pieces of paper and placed in one of two intervention or control groups by the patient operator's removal. By identifying the first patient's treatment group, the next patient will be assigned to the other group and thus the patients will be divided into groups. In this study, the researcher, evaluator, and participants are unaware of the study group allocation and only the operator is aware of the group assignment, Blinding description: Participants enter the research after completing the informed consent form and are divided into two groups. From this stage, only the operator of the device has been informed from the medical group and the participants, the resarcher and the evaluator to avoid the bias in the study from the subjects of the study groups No information is available. N/A Lateral Epicondylitis or Tennis Elbow. Intervention 1: Intervention group: a 4 Hz frequency shock wave, an energy flux density of 0.08 j/mm ², 2000 Shock, once a week for 3 weeks. Physical therapy is then performed with stretching exercise, 3 times a day and 4-5 repetitions. Shock wave unit: ESM /SWISS DOLORCLAST/ Switzerland. Intervention 2: Control group: Sham group, a 4 Hz frequency shock wave, an energy flux density of 0.04 j/mm ², 1500 shocks, once a week and for 3 weeks with foam mediator in the area. Also physiotherapy with stretching exercises for 3 times Performs 4-5 repetitions per day. Undecided - It is not yet known if there will be a plan to make this available Justification or reason for indecision in sharing IPD is No more information
