NCT04913350 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 20

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The strength loss associated with immobilization causes long term decreases in performance and loss of hours of participation for athletes during rehabilitation period to regain a competitive form. Therefore, reducing such effects throughout the immobilization period is highly preferable. Cross-educational strength transfer to the inactive muscle by means of unilateral strength training may provide an opportunity to avoid strength loss and atrophy.

Conditions

  • Treatment Side Effects

Interventions

OTHER

Russian current

One of the preferred common neuromuscular electrical stimulation techniques for muscle strengthening is the Russian current (RC) It stimulates almost all muscle motor units to contract synchronously, resulting in a greater muscle hypertrophy.

DEVICE

elbow support

tennis elbow brace is recommended to decrease pain and improve function by restricting the movement of the forearm or relieving loads on the origin of the muscles of the extensor
