E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The main objective is to evaluate the efficacy of Cytokine Rich Serum (CRS) obtained by QREM CYTOKINE compared to arthroscopic resection in reducing pain in the medium term (6 months) in patients with chronic lateral epicondylitis. |

E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The secondary objectives are: - evaluate the efficacy of CRS compared with arthroscopic resection in reducing pain in the short (15 days, 1 month, 3 months) and long term (12 and 24 months) in patients with chronic lateral epicondylitis. - evaluate other efficacy parameters (functional improvement, pain at wrist extension and grip strength) in the short (15 days, 1 month, 3 months), medium (6 months) and long (12 and 24 months) term. - assess the safety (incidence of adverse events) of CRS in the short (15 days, 1 month, 3 months), medium (6 months) and long (12 and 24 months) term. |
Los objetivos secundarios son: - evaluar la eficacia de SRC en comparación con la resección artroscópica en la reducción del dolor a corto (15 días, 1 mes, 3 meses) y largo plazo (12 y 24 meses) en pacientes con epicondilitis crónica lateral. - evaluar otros parámetros de eficacia (mejora funcional, dolor a la extensión de la muñeca y fuerza de agarre) a corto (15 días, 1 mes, 3 meses), medio (6 meses) y largo (12 y 24 meses) plazo. - evaluar la seguridad (incidencia de acontecimientos adversos) del SRC a corto (15 días, 1 mes, 3 meses), medio (6 meses) y largo (12 y 24 meses) plazo. |
