About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Neuromuscular Bandage Technique Against Jones Technique After the Supraespinatus Muscle Tendon Suture: a Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial

The suture of the supraspinatus tendon is a common surgery that requires physical therapy for back pain and functional impairment to such surgery. Kinesiotaping technique (KT) is being used to treat myofascial trigger points that appear after surgery and for the treatment of physiotherapy in the supraspinatus muscle and deltoid.

To evaluate the effectiveness of KT technique over the technique of Jones (Straincounterstrain or SCS) in patients undergoing suture the tendon of the supraspinatus muscle.

Read the detailed description

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of the KT technique against Jones (Strain-Counterstrain or SCS) technique in patients with the suture of the tendon of the supraspinatus muscle.

Design: Test clinically controlled, randomized, masking of intervention by double placebo and blind to the subject of the essay and the Studio analyst.

METHOD: Patients with supraspinatus tendon suture are randomly divided into two groups: a group treated with KT (n = 18) and other treated with SCS (n = 18). The treatment was applied the 1st, 4th and 8th day of physical therapy session. All patients were evaluated the 1st and the 12th day of the session with the visual analog scale of pain (VAS), with the scale of Disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) to assess the functionality and active direction-finding (ROM) to assess travel articulate.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in the DASH between sixth and eighth week , in patients with supraespinatus muscle tendon suture.

    All participants (36) has been mesured:

    • First day of the sixth week after surgery with DASH,
    • Four days later of the first medition , it repeated the technique asigned but it hasn´t been mesured.
    • Eight days later or the first meditión, it repeated the technique asigned but it hasn´t been mesured.
    • Twelve days later of the first medition , it repeated the mesured with DASH,

    Measured: From first day of the sixth week after surgery to twelve days after of the first medition.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in the VAS between sixth and eighth week , in patients with supraespinatus muscle tendon suture.

    All participants (36) has been mesured:

    • First day of the sixth week after surgery with VAS scale.
    • Four days later of the first medition , it repeated the technique asigned but it hasn´t been mesured.
    • Eight days later or the first meditión, it repeated the technique asigned but it hasn´t been mesured.
    • Twelve days later of the first medition , it repeated the mesured with VAS

    Measured: From first day of the sixth week after surgery to twelve days after of the first medition.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing KT and SCS in people with Pain, run by Fundacion para la Investigacion Biomedica del Hospital Universitario Ramon y Cajal.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Aug 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in the DASH between sixth and eighth week , in patients with supraespinatus muscle tendon suture. (time frame: From first day of the sixth week after surgery to twelve days after of the first medition.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Aug 2016.
