Journal ArticleDOI

Corticosteroid injections, physiotherapy, or a wait-and-see policy for lateral epicondylitis: a randomised controlled trial.

TL;DR: C corticosteroid injections were significantly better than all other therapy options for all outcome measures, and physiotherapy had better results than a wait-and-see policy, but differences were not significant.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cost effectiveness of physiotherapy, manual therapy, and general practitioner care for neck pain: economic evaluation alongside a randomised controlled trial

TL;DR: Manual therapy (spinal mobilisation) is more effective and less costly for treating neck pain than physiotherapy or care by a general practitioner and patients undergoing manual therapy recovered more quickly than those undergoing the other interventions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Manual therapy, physical therapy, or continued care by the general practitioner for patients with neck pain: long-term results from a pragmatic randomized clinical trial.

TL;DR: Short-term results have shown that MT speeded recovery compared with GP care and, to a lesser extent, also compared with PT, and in the long-term, GP treatment and PT caught up with MT, and differences between the three treatment groups decreased and lost statistical significance at the 13-week and 52-week follow-up.
Journal ArticleDOI

Economic evaluations and Randomized trials in spinal disorders: Principles and methods

TL;DR: The various steps in an economic evaluation are described, using as example a study on the cost-effectiveness of manual therapy, physiotherapy, and usual care provided by the general practitioner for patients with neck pain, to improve the methods of economic evaluations in the field of spinal disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cost effectiveness of interventions for lateral epicondylitis: results from a randomised controlled trial in primary care.

TL;DR: The results of this economic evaluation provided no reason to update or amend the Dutch guidelines for GPs, which recommend a wait-and-see policy for patients with lateral epicondylitis.
