Calcific tendinitis

This trial investigates whether using real-time ultrasound to guide shock wave therapy improves outcomes for people with calcific tendinitis of the shoulder, a painful condition where calcium deposits form in the rotator cuff tendons. Participants aged 20 to 70 with confirmed dep…

This study is testing a new medical device called the lok™ suture anchor system for repairing torn tendons and labrum in the shoulder. About 216 adults with rotator cuff tears, shoulder instability, or partial tendon avulsions will receive the anchors during surgery. Researchers …

This study is testing a handheld device called mScan that uses a tiny, painless electrical current to measure muscle health. Researchers want to see if it can give similar results to an MRI, but faster and more conveniently. The study involves 150 adults with and without muscle d…

This study is testing a gel called OSTENIL TENDON to see if it safely reduces pain and improves movement in people with tendon problems. Researchers will enroll 84 adults with one of four types of tendinopathy. The main goal is to measure pain changes three months after treatment…

This study tests whether using Doppler ultrasound to detect inflammation around calcium deposits in the shoulder can improve the results of a guided injection. 100 adults with chronic shoulder pain and calcific tendinitis will receive an ultrasound-guided injection, with or witho…

This study is creating a new classification system for shoulder calcific tendinitis based on MRI scans. Researchers will look at 400 patients to see if the location of calcium deposits relates to which treatment works best. The goal is to help doctors choose between conservative …

This study aims to find better ways to measure fatigue and walking problems in people with neuromuscular diseases like muscular dystrophy and spinal muscular atrophy. Researchers will use a wearable sensor to track physical activity for one week in daily life and during a walking…
