NCT05757739
Lateral epicondylitis (Tennis Elbow) can cause pain and keep individuals from completing their daily activities and require them to miss work. There are currently different treatment options to address tennis elbow. However surgeons do not know if one is better than the other. This study will compare two treatment options for tennis elbow. Participants will either be treated by Ultrasound-guided Percutaneous Tenotomy Technique or Open Surgical Debridement. Traditional open surgical debridement is a surgical procedure that requires the surgeon to make an incision to remove the damaged tissue. This procedure is done under anesthesia in a surgery center. In the Tenex procedure, the surgeon inserts a special needle into the damaged portion of the tendon under ultrasound guidance. Ultrasonic energy vibrates the damaged tissue and it can be suctioned out. This procedure is done with local anesthesia in surgeon's office.

studying coracoid tunnel widening after arthroscopic fixation of acute acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) dislocation using TightRope system and its correlation with loss of reduction and the functional scores.
NCT03572816
Treatment of acute calcaneus fractures includes non- or partial weight bearing, but protocols are different and often not very specific. In fact, there are no studies published comparing different procedures or special supporting devices. Recently, a heel-unloading orthosis ('Settner shoe') was introduced, allowing walking by shifting the load to the middle- and forefoot. Specifically in calcaneus fractures, early regain of physical activity has been highlighted as one of the key factors for quality of life and the ability to return to work. Thus, the investigators hypothesize that mobilization with the 'Settner shoe' results in higher physical activity within the first 3 months and secondly improves ability to return to work in calcaneus fracture patients aged 18-60 years.
