简要总结

To check in patients suffering from chronic plantar fasciitis treated with shock wave therapy, if the outward appearance of the device affects clinical outcomes.

详细描述

Study Design: a controlled, randomized, parallel assessor-blinded clinical trial.

Patients suffering from chronic plantar fasciitis (duration more than 6 months) will be assigned to three different groups:

  • Group I: Treatment applied by standard shock waves device.
  • Group II: Shock wave therapy applied by a modified standard device to offer more attractive, more technical, smarter, better appearance, larger and with an expansion of external information devices more sophisticated.
  • Group III: Shock wave therapy applied by a modified standard device to offer a more austere, disfigured, unattractive, modest and smaller external appearance.

The shock waves emitted to the 3 devices will be identical; the only difference will be the external image of the device.

The main outcome will be the function of the foot by the FFI (Foot Function Index) questionnaire.
