Achilles tendinopathy clinical and patient characteristic subgroups
Listen now
Description
Had an enjoyable chat with Shawn Hanlon a PhD candidate who has recently published a study that investigated a subgroup model for Achilles tendinopathy based on clinical and patient characteristics. Although the model needs to be investigated further there are some useful and interesting clinical implications that we discuss.  I hope you enjoy! And here is the link to the paper: Hanlon, S.L., Pohlig, R.T. and Silbernagel, K.G., 2021. Beyond the diagnosis: Using patient characteristics and domains of tendon health to identify latent subgroups of Achilles tendinopathy. journal of orthopaedic & sports physical therapy, 51(9), pp.440-448.
