Comparative effects of muscle energy technique and deep friction massage along with static stretching of extensor carpi radialis brevis in patients with lateral epicondylitis
To evaluate the effects of METS and Deep friction massage along with Static Stretching of Extesnsor carpi Radialis brevis in patients with lateral epicondylitis.
Design
Pragmatic, community based, parallel group, double binding, randomised clinical trial
the calculated sample size is 24. After adding 20% dropout ratio, it becomes 30.
Settings and conduct
Conduct
randomized clinical trial
blinding Double blinding was used as patient and assessor was blind, i.e, patient was unware of which treatment was applied to them and assessor was also unware during assessment which treatment was provided to that subject.

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
In this study, participants will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group A and group B using a computer-generated random sequence. Block randomization will be employed to ensure equal allocation across groups. The randomization sequence will be concealed using sealed, opaque envelopes, and the trial will be double-blinded to minimize bias. Randomization is used to ensure comparable groups and to reduce selection bias in the trial.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
Double blinding was used as patient and assessor was blind, i.e, patient was unware of which treatment was applied to them and assessor was also unware during assessment which treatment was provided to that subject.
