Validated self-reported outcome measures including the mean numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) and Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (QuickDASH) were taken at baseline. Participants were treated with two to eight sessions of DN to the LHBT and an ECE program and stretching of the biceps muscle. At discharge, patients completed the global rating of change (GROC), QuickDASH and NPRS. Results: Patients had an improved mean NPRS of 3.9 (SD, 1.3; p < 0.001), QuickDASH of 19.01% (SD, 10.8; p < 0.02) and GROC +5.4 (SD, 1.3). Conclusion: Findings from this case series suggest that DN and ECE may be beneficial for the management of patients with chronic LHBT tendinopathy. Further research on the efficacy of this novel treatment approach is warranted.]]> Wed 27 Jul 2022 12:48:25 AEST ]]> The physical therapy management of individuals with long head of the biceps tendinopathy https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50917 Wed 06 Mar 2024 14:49:48 AEDT ]]> Physical therapy interventions used to treat individuals with biceps tendinopathy: a scoping review https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54545 Tue 27 Feb 2024 20:40:18 AEDT ]]> Accuracy of long head of the biceps tendon palpation by physical therapists; an ultrasonographic study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44304 Thu 10 Aug 2023 17:08:23 AEST ]]> Physical Therapy Interventions for the Management of Biceps Tendinopathy: An International Delphi Study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52229 Thu 05 Oct 2023 10:31:26 AEDT ]]>
