简要总结
There is no scientific study in the literature regarding the use of different extracorporeal shock wave therapies (ESWT) in the treatment of patellar tendinopathy. In this study, we aim to investigate both the effectiveness of ESWT and which type of ESWT can be more effective in the treatment of patellar tendinopathy.

入选标准
- •Engaging in active sports, being 18 years or older, history of activity-related knee pain in the patellar tendon or patellar insertion, symptoms lasting longer than 8 weeks (non-acute), VISA-P score less than 80 before treatment, pain during knee loading on tendon or tendon it remains isolated in the limited part of the bone junction and does not spread to the entire patellar region (to differentiate patellar tendinopathy and patellofemoral pain).
排除标准
- •Being under the age of 18, acute knee or acute patellar tendon injury, chronic inflammatory joint diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, etc.), using immunosuppressive or corticosteroid medication in the last 6 months, previous knee surgery (in the anterior cruciate ligament or patellar tendon), knee in the last 1 month local (corticosteroid) injection, contraindications for ESWT treatment (eg pregnancy, malignancy, coagulopathy), previous ESWT treatment
结局指标
主要结局
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
时间窗: 15 weeks after baseline.
patient's self-assessment of pain, in the range of 0 to 10, higher scores mean a worse
Victorian Institute of Sports Assessment-Patella (VISA-P)
时间窗: 15 weeks after baseline.
The Victorian Institute of Sport Assessment-Patella (VISA-P) is a questionnaire to assess the severity of patellar tendinopathies. Theoretically, a maximum score of 100 and a minimum score of 0 can be obtained in the VISA-P questionnaire. Scores below 80 are usually indicative of patellar tendinopathy.
