简要总结
The effects of Muscle Energy Technique intervention have been investigated in recent studies in Lateral Epicondylitis. Some studies have been conducted about mills manipulation and Muscle Energy Technique but according to the literature review there is no study exist to determine the effects of Mill's Manipulation along with Muscle Energy Technique in Lateral epicondylitis. Because of this reason, further research required to find out the effects of Mill's Manipulation along with Muscle Energy Technique in pain, Range of motion and disability in lateral epicondylitis. So the aim of the study is to determine whether these techniques are effective and should be incorporated frequently in a clinical setting in relation to the conventional therapy. This study will help the clinician for the identification of the better and quick treatment regime which will have no adverse effects and risks and making them more effective, efficient for the patient with lateral epicondylitis.

结局指标
主要结局
NPRS
时间窗: 2 weeks
The numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) measure the subjective intensity of pain. NPRS is an eleven point scale from 0 to 10 is the most commonly used version which has good test-retest reliability ( r= .79-.96). The NPRS is a reliable and valid pain assessment scale in LE.
Goniometer
时间窗: 2 weeks
Universal goniometer is use to measure wrist ROM in flexion , extension, radial deviation, ulnar deviation, forearm pronation and forearm supination.The intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) ranged from 0.945 to 0.973 which are classified for the goniometer measurements.
PRFEQ
时间窗: 2 weeks
The PRTEE, formerly known as the Patient-Rated Forearm Evaluation Questionnaire (PRFEQ), is a 15-item questionnaire designed to measure forearm pain and disability in patients with lateral epicondylitis (also known as "tennis elbow"). The PRTEE allows patients to rate their levels of tennis elbow pain and disability from 0 to 10, and consists of 2 subscales: 1) PAIN subscale: (0 = no pain, 10 = worst imaginable) Pain - 5 items 2) FUNCTION subscale: (0 = no difficulty, 10 = unable to do) Specific activities - 6 items , Usual activities - 4 items . Test-retest reliability of Korea version PRTEE was good total ICC= .962 (CI=.922-,982). Therefore, it is a useful measure to evaluate the conditions of patients with lateral epicondylitis.
