Comparison of ESWT and Single-Session 5% Dextrose Prolotherapy in Lateral Epicondylitis
Comparison of the Effectiveness of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy and 5% Dextrose Prolotherapy in Patients With Lateral Epicondylitis: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial
Studie Overzicht
Toestand
Gedetailleerde beschrijving
Lateral epicondylitis is a common musculoskeletal disorder associated with pain, reduced grip strength, and impaired upper extremity function. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) and single-session 5% dextrose prolotherapy (DPT) in patients with lateral epicondylitis and to evaluate their relative effectiveness during short- and mid-to-long-term follow-up.
Ninety-six patients were allocated into three groups: conventional treatment alone, conventional treatment plus ESWT, and conventional treatment plus DPT. Conventional treatment consisted of home exercise and splinting. ESWT was applied in 3 sessions (2000 pulses, 0.15 mJ/mm²), while the DPT group received a single ultrasound-guided 5% dextrose injection.
Primary outcomes included Visual Analog Scale pain scores for rest, night pain, resisted wrist extension, and grip pain. Secondary outcomes included QuickDASH, PRTEE, grip strength measured with a Jamar dynamometer, and ultrasonographic assessment of common extensor tendon thickness. Clinical assessments were performed at baseline, 1, 3, and 6 months.

Tijdsspanne |
|---|---|---|
|
Quick-DASH Score
Tijdsspanne: Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after treatment
|
Functional disability assessed using the Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire.
The QuickDASH score ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 indicates no symptoms and normal upper extremity function, while 100 indicates the highest symptom severity and the poorest functional status.
|
Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after treatment
|
|
PRTEE Score
Tijdsspanne: Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after treatment
|
Functional outcome assessed using the Patient-Rated Tennis Elbow Evaluation questionnaire.
The PRTEE consists of 15 items divided into two subscales: pain (5 items) and function (10 items).
The total score ranges from 0 to 100, with 0 indicating no pain and normal function, and 100 indicating the highest pain severity and the poorest functional status.
Higher scores reflect greater pain intensity and functional impairment.
