Intervention / Behandling |
|---|---|
|
Eksperimentel: scapular muscles strengthning group
Patients in this group A will receive scapular muscles (lower trapezius, middle trapezius and serratus anterior) strengthening along with conventional physiotherapy (pulsed ultrasound, static stretching of ECRB muscle and eccentric exercises of wrist extensors) for 6 weeks.
|
Ask the patient to raise arm above the head with upper extremity in line with lower trapezius muscle fibers in prone position with the shoulder joint at 135 degrees.
The patient will be asked to hold position 6 seconds and perform 3 sets of 10 repetitions and 3times per week for 6 weeks.
Shoulder external rotation with the shoulder abducted 90ₒ and elbow flexed 90ₒ in prone position with elbow supported on the table.
The patient will be asked to hold position 6 seconds and perform 3 sets of 10 repetitions and 3times per week for 6 weeks.
Ask the patient to raise the arm on a wall in the plane of the scapula in standing position. The patient will be asked to hold position 6 seconds and perform 3 sets of 10 repetitions and 3times per week for 6 weeks.
With a 20% duty cycle, frequency of 1 MHz and intensity of 1.5 w/cm² for 5 minutes 3 times per week for 6 weeks.
Put the elbow in extension, forearm in pronation and wrist in flexion with ulnar deviation.
Hold for 30s and repeat 3 times with 30s rest in between.
Three times per week for 6 weeks.
Ask the patient to extend elbow, pronate forearm, extend wrist and then flex the wrist slowly until full flexion is achieved.
Patients should apply 3 sets of 10 repetitions 3 times per week for 6 weeks.

Aktiv komparator: conventional physiotherapy group
Patients in this group B will receive conventional physiotherapy only (pulsed ultrasound, static stretching of ECRB muscle and eccentric exercises of wrist extensors) 3 sessions per week for 6 weeks.
|
With a 20% duty cycle, frequency of 1 MHz and intensity of 1.5 w/cm² for 5 minutes 3 times per week for 6 weeks.
Put the elbow in extension, forearm in pronation and wrist in flexion with ulnar deviation.
Hold for 30s and repeat 3 times with 30s rest in between.
Three times per week for 6 weeks.
Ask the patient to extend elbow, pronate forearm, extend wrist and then flex the wrist slowly until full flexion is achieved.
Patients should apply 3 sets of 10 repetitions 3 times per week for 6 weeks.

Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse |
Tidsramme |
|---|---|---|
|
Assessment of change in pain intensity
Tidsramme: at baseline and after 6 weeks of intervention
|
Using Visual analouge scale (VAS), a continuous 10 cm line ranges from no pain to very severe pain which is valid and reliable tool.
The patient marks on the line the point that they feel represents their pain intensity.
|
at baseline and after 6 weeks of intervention
|
|
Assessment of change in hand grip strength
Tidsramme: at baseline and after 6 weeks of intervention
|
Patient stands with the elbow in complete extension and the shoulder and radioulnar joints in neutral rotation.
Ask the patient to slowly squeeze the dynamometer and to stop the instant discomfort is first felt.
It will be performed three repetitions separated by a 20-second rest interval.
Average of three trials will be recorded.
The measurement is valid and reliable.

Assessment of change in function
Tidsramme: at baseline and after 6 weeks of intervention
|
Using PRTEEQ.
It is a 15-item self-reported questionnaire to measure perceived pain and disability in people with LE.
It has three subscales: pain, usual activities and specific activities.
Each of the items of the Patient rated tennis elbow evaluation questionnaire (PRTEEQ) is scored on a 0-10 scale, where 0 is 'no pain' or 'no difficulty' and10 is 'worst ever' or 'unable to do.
Ask the patients to rate the pain and difficulty that they have experienced in the last week by marking the suitable response that reflects their current state.
The total score ranges from 0 to 100, where high scores indicate greater pain and disability.
