Functional Results of Infiltration for Biceps Tendonitis Guided by Ultrasound vs Anatomical Repairs: Variation in Technique


Sponsor

Hospital Universitario San Ignacio

Enrollment

50 participants

Start Date

Jun 1, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

A randomized clinical trial aimed at comparing the functional outcomes of brachial biceps infiltration guided by anatomical landmarks versus ultrasound guidance. Given that ultrasound guidance has shown an efficacy of 91%, this intervention could potentially be more effective in delivering medication to the target area and achieving improved therapeutic outcomes


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 YearsMax Age: 99 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This clinical trial is studying a procedure called injection in the bicipital groove guided by anatomic landmarks and a procedure called injection in the bicipital groove guided by ultrasound for people with bíceps tendinitis. The study is currently recruiting participants at 1 location. People eligible for this study include aged 18 Years to 99 Years.

This summary was AI-generated to explain the trial in plain language. It is not medical advice. Always discuss eligibility with your doctor before enrolling in a clinical trial.

Interventions

PROCEDUREinjection in the bicipital groove guided by anatomic landmarks

Anatomical landmark-guided puncture involves patient positioning and palpation, whereas ultrasound-guided involves identifying the biceps tendon's axis and inserting the needle parallel to the transducer.
