        Tennis elbow or lateral epicondylitis is a commonly encountered musculoskeletal complaint, which is characterized by lateral elbow pain often associated with gripping task. For management of this problem, elbow tape and Cyriax physiotherapy have been incorporated into the treatment. Objective. To study the comparative effectiveness of Cyriax physiotherapy and Taping in cases of tennis elbow in terms of pain, grip strength and functional activities. Methods. 40 subjects with tennis elbow over the duration of 3 months, between the age 20 to 50 years were taken up for the study. Baseline pain, grip strength and functional evaluation were recorded pre treatment (1st day) and post treatment (7th day). Hand dynamometer was used to measure the grip strength, VAS to assess pain and patient rated forearm evaluation questionnaire for lateral epicondylitis was used for functional evaluation. Comparison of the pre and post values was done following the treatment. Results. Within group analysis showed that there was statistically significant improvement in both the groups in the pain, grip strength and functional performance. (p<0.0001) whereas between group analysis revealed that Group A showed significant improvement compared to Group B in terms of pain and functional performance. Conclusion. This clinical trial provided evidence to support the use of cyriax physiotherapy and taping techniques in relieving pain, improving grip strength and improve functional performance in subjects with tennis elbow. Results supported that Cyriax physiotherapy was more effective than taping technique in reducing pain and functional performance.
        Cotul tenismenului sau epicondilita lateral este o afecţiune musculoscheletală des întâlnită, caracterizată prin durere în porţiunea laterală a cotului, asociată cu reducerea forţei prehensiunii. În tratamentul kinetic s-au adăugat terapia Cryax şi kinesiotaping. Obiective. Scoul lucrarii este de a studia comparativ eficienţa terapiei Cyriax şi a tapingului, în cazul cotului tenismenului, referitor la durere, forţa prehensiunii şi a activităţilor funcţionale. Metode. 40 subiecţi cu cotul tenismenului de mai bine de 3 luni, cu vârste între 20 şi 50 ani au participat la studio. Durerea iniţială, forţa prehensiunii şi evaluarea funcţională s-au efectuat înainte (ziua1) şi după tratament (ziua7). S-a folosit dinamometrul pentru evaluarea forţei prehensiunii, SAV pentru durere şi un chestionar de evaluare funcţională pentru funcţia cotului. Compararea rezultatelor pre şi post intervenţie s-a realizat la sfârşitul studiului. Rezultate. Analiza intragrup demonstrează îmbunătăţiri semnificative statistic la ambele grupe de subiecţi, privind durerea, forţa prehensiunii şi performanţa funcţională (p<0.0001), pe când analiza intergroup demonstrează că grupul A a prezentat îmbunătăţiri semnificative faţă de grupul B în ceea ce priveşte durerea şi performanţa funcţională. Concluzii. Acest studiu oferă informaţii care sprijină idea folosirii terapiei Cryax şi a tapingului în reducerea durerii, creşterea forţei prehensiunii şi a performanţei funcţionale, la pacienţii cu epicondilită laterală. Rezultatele demonstrează că terapia Cyriax a fost mai eficientă decât tapingul în reducerea durerii şi a performanţei funcţionale.
