Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Assess whether the treatement with PRP improves chronic epicondylitis recalcitrant against lidocaine wet tenotomy, meassured by DASH scale and decreasing pain.;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of PRP in chronic epicondylitis 2. Assess structural changes (by ultrasound) in the tendon secondary to treatment with PRP 3. Assess whether the application of this technology is feasible 4. Assess the feasibility of the protocol;Primary end point(s): The percenteage of patients that improve de scale "Form Disabilities of the Arm Shoulder and Harm", (DASH).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Basal, 6th week, 3,6 and 12 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Variables evolution On the first visit they passed the visual analogue scale (VAS) to assess pain: You are asked by the maximum pain caused by epicondylitis and punctuate it on the scale. VERY IMPORTANT: The patient is 48 hours without taking any pain medication before EVA complete scales and initial DASH. Variables relating to the application of treatment Time of blood collection Treatment given (A or B) Intervention location Duration of intervention (start and end) Optional charge Adverse events related to the arm;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Basal, 6th week, 3,6 and 12 months
