Study Overview
Brief Summary
Decathlon has developed elbowMID500 and elbowSTRAP products which are medical devices that must be positioned around the elbow during sport practice, in order to limit symptoms related to epicondylitis or previous sprains (elbowMID500 only).
The objective of this multicentre study is to collect data on the related clinical complications and clinical outcomes of market-approved Decathlon elbowMID500 and elbowSTRAP products to demonstrate safety and performance of these devices in a real-world setting.
Outcome data collected from this study will provide the basis for Post-Market Surveillance (PMS) reporting, Clinical Study Report (CSR), Clinical Evaluation Report (CER) on Decathlon elbowMID500 and elbowSTRAP devices and support peer-reviewed publications on products performance and safety.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Functional score
Time Frame: Change from Baseline functionnal score at 6 weeks
Comparison of the Japanese Elbow Assessment Score System (JOA elbow scale from 0=worst ouctome to 100=best outcome) between the baseline and last follow-up visit in each group (orthosis vs control), for each device model.
Secondary Outcomes
- Safety (adverse events)(6 weeks of follow-up)
- Confidence level (confidence questionnaire related to physical activity)(Change from Baseline confidence level at 6 weeks)
- Elbow pain(Change from Baseline elbow pain at 6 weeks)
