Aim: To compare the effectiveness of supervised exercise programme as proposed by Stasinopoulos and colleagues with home exercise programme as proposed by Pienimaki and his coworkers in the treatment of lateral elbow tendinopathy. Design : Controlled clinical trial. Setting : Physiotherapy and rehabilitation centre. Participants : This trial was carried out with 60 patients, who had lateral elbow tendinopathy. Intervention : Group A ( n = 30) had received supervised exercise programme, once per…
