Manage episode 426427958 series 3583541
There is a saying... don't guess, assess.
But what are the most important things to measure for people with tendinopathy?
In the first MMRU podcast conversation, Peter Malliaras and Luke Perraton discuss the nine core health-related domains for tendinopathy as determined by the 2019 International Scientific Tendinopathy Symposium Consensus (ICON) consensus group and Delphi study.
The conversation summarises the methods and findings of the study, the core domains and other important outcome measures in tendinopathy.
The nine core domains were:
- Patient rating of condition
- Participation in life activities (day to day, work, sport)
- Pain on activity/loading
- Function
- Psychological factors
- Physical function capacity
- Disability
- Quality of life
- Pain over a specified time
