[Shock wave treatment for tennis elbow]

[Article in German]
J D Rompe et al. Orthopade. 2005 Jun.

Abstract

Randomized controlled trials were evaluated to assess the effectiveness of extracorporeal shock wave treatment in the management of tennis elbow. Five trials had a mediocre methodology and four trials had a high-quality design. Well-designed randomized control trials have provided evidence of the effectiveness of shock wave intervention for tennis elbow.
