Tendinitis

This study is testing a special implant (Tapestry) that helps repair a key shoulder tendon (subscapularis) during shoulder replacement surgery. About 100 adults with shoulder arthritis or injury will be followed for 2 years to see if the tendon heals better with the implant. The …

This study tests a new injection called NEMO-103 to see if it makes shoulder MRI pictures clearer for diagnosing problems like torn tendons or cartilage. About 85 adults with known or suspected shoulder issues will get both a regular MRI and one with the injection. The goal is to…

This trial tests whether a rehabilitation program that exercises the entire leg — from foot to hip — can improve balance, reduce pain, and restore function better than standard tendon-focused exercises in people with chronic Achilles tendinopathy. Fifty adults aged 18 to 45 with …

This study compares two 12-week exercise programs—eccentric training and heavy-slow resistance training—in 30 adults aged 18–50 with patellar tendinopathy (knee pain lasting over 3 months). Researchers measure changes in tendon thickness, stiffness, strength, and pain to see whic…

This study compares three non-surgical treatments—exercise therapy, shockwave therapy, and ultrasound-guided irrigation—against a wait-and-see approach for people with painful calcium deposits in the shoulder. About 116 participants with confirmed calcific tendinopathy will be ra…

This study tests whether a specific type of exercise called eccentric contraction (lengthening muscles under tension) can help people with shoulder pain syndrome. Sixty adults aged 18-70 with rotator cuff tendinitis will do either eccentric exercises plus standard therapy or stan…

This study tests whether adding yellow or green light therapy to standard care (ice and exercises) can reduce pain and improve knee function in 60 athletes with jumper's knee. Participants will receive either yellow light, green light, or standard care alone. The goal is to see i…

This study tests if a biceps tendon cutting procedure (tenotomy) done in the doctor's office with a tiny camera and local anesthesia works as well as the same surgery in an operating room. 14 adults with shoulder pain from biceps or rotator cuff problems will be enrolled. The mai…

This study compares two types of injections for people with shoulder pain caused by rotator cuff tendinopathy. One injection, CTM Boost, is made from donated placental tissue, and the other, PRP, uses a patient's own blood. The goal is to see if CTM Boost works as well as PRP at …

This study follows 50 adults who had surgery for a broken shinbone to see if changes in the kneecap tendon's stiffness relate to knee pain. Researchers use a special ultrasound before and up to 6 months after surgery. The goal is to better understand why some people develop front…

This study was designed to compare two standard surgical techniques for bicep tenodesis—using one anchor or two mini anchors—to see which keeps the tendon in place better. It planned to track tendon movement with X-rays right after surgery, at 2 weeks, and at 6 months. However, t…

This study planned to compare waterproof and standard casts in children with ankle or foot injuries. The goal was to see if waterproof casts lead to more complications. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no data or conclusions are available.
