It reduces strength, functionality, and quality of life, leading to limitations in work and daily activities and representing a relevant public health concern.\n\nCurrent scientific evidence suggests conservative physical therapy as the first-line treatment; however, heterogeneity exists among approaches, and clinical guidelines remain unclear. Rest and pharmacological treatment may provide short-term relief but do not resolve the underlying condition and may lead to recurrences.\n\nTherapeutic exercise has been shown to improve pain, strength, and function and is recommended as a first-line conservative intervention due to its favorable cost-benefit ratio. Thermotherapy and electrotherapy may also reduce pain and improve function compared with placebo.\n\nThis study aims to evaluate the efficacy of the Super Inductive System (SIS) combined with a conventional physical therapy program.\n\nHypothesis SIS therapy, combined with an upper extremity therapeutic exercise program and health education, will reduce pain, improve mobility and limb function, increase grip strength, facilitate return to activities of daily living (ADLs), and enhance perceived quality of life in individuals with lateral elbow tendinopathy.\n\nObjective To assess the effectiveness of SIS combined with therapeutic exercise and health education in adults aged 18 years and older with lateral elbow tendinopathy, compared with the application of SIS at a non therapeutic dose combined with conventional therapeutic exercise and health education.\n\nMethodology A prospective, experimental, randomized clinical trial will be conducted using a triple blind design (principal investigator, assessor, and participant). The study will include an intervention group (IG) (SIS at a therapeutic dose plus therapeutic exercise and health education) and a control group (CG) (SIS at a non therapeutic dose plus therapeutic exercise and health education).\n\nThis multicenter study will take place at three Rehabilitation and Physical Therapy Services (Mataró, Sant Andreu-Barcelona, and Drassanes-Barcelona), all part of the Primary Care network of the Catalan Health Institute (ICS).\n\nData collection will occur at baseline, post treatment, and at 3 and 6 month follow ups.\n\nOutcome measures will assess pain using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and algometry, mobility through goniometric evaluation, upper limb function using the Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire (QuickDASH), grip strength with dynamometry, health related quality of life with the EQ 5D 5L, and elbow specific pain and functional status using the Patient-Rated Tennis Elbow Evaluation (PRTEE).\n\nInferential analyses will be performed for within group and between group comparisons. Data will be processed in accordance with current legislation.\n\nData management will be performed using REDCap (Research Electronic Data Capture).\n\nExpected Outcomes A statistically significant improvement is expected in the intervention group compared with the control group. The use of SIS may contribute to reduced recovery time, fewer and shorter temporary work disabilities, and lower pharmaceutical costs among individuals with lateral epicondylalgia.\n\nApplicability and Relevance SIS is an innovative non invasive therapeutic technology that reduces acute and chronic pain, improves joint mobility, and promotes muscle strengthening in tendinopathies. Demonstrating its effectiveness and cost efficiency may support its incorporation into routine clinical practice, potentially reducing treatment duration, recovery time, and reliance on pharmacological therapy.\n\nThis study will provide evidence to inform the implementation of SIS as an additional therapeutic tool in primary care physical therapy and rehabilitation settings.",[27,88,89],"Lateral Epicondylalgia","Lateral Elbow Tendinopathy",[91,92,93,94,95,96],"Lateral Epicondylitis","Super Inductive System","high-intensity electromagnetic stimulation","exercises","pain","functionality","2026-03-22",{"date":99,"type":38},"2026-03-27",{"date":101,"type":21},"2026-03-30",{"date":103,"type":21},"2028-09-01",{"name":105,"class":45},"University of Vic - Central University of Catalonia",{"id":107,"slug":108,"hasResults":11,"nctId":109,"briefTitle":110,"officialTitle":111,"acronym":112,"eligibilityCriteria":113,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":16,"minAge":17,"maxAge":18,"enrollmentInfo":114,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":22,"phases":116,"briefSummary":117,"conditions":118,"keywords":120,"overallStatus":65,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":123,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":124,"startDateStruct":126,"completionDateStruct":128,"leadSponsor":130,"locationsCount":46},"100627158","effect-of-magnetotherapy-combined-with-cold-application-and-exercise-in-patients-with-lateral-epicondylitis-100627158","NCT07444996","Effect of Magnetotherapy Combined With Cold Application and Exercise in Patients With Lateral Epicondylitis","Effectiveness of Magnetotherapy in Patients With Lateral Epicondylitis: A Randomized Double-Blind Controlled Trial","MAGNET-LE","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age between 18 and 65 years\n* Clinical diagnosis of lateral epicondylitis\n* Tenderness over the lateral epicondyle on palpation\n* Tenderness over the common extensor tendon\n* At least one positive provocation test (Cozen, Mill's, or Maudsley's test)\n* Willingness to participate and provide written informed consent\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Acute infection\n* Elbow surgery within the past 12 months\n* Presence of electronic implants (e.g., pacemaker, cochlear implant)\n* Pregnancy\n* Physical therapy for the elbow within the past 3 months\n* Corticosteroid injection to the elbow within the past 3 months\n* History of elbow trauma within the past 3 months\n* Hyperthyroidism or adrenal hyperfunction\n* Paroxysmal neurological disorders (e.g., epilepsy)\n* Myasthenia gravis\n* Inability to comply with the treatment protocol or follow-up assessments",{"count":115,"type":21},40,[24],"This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of magnetotherapy in the treatment of lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow).
