Functional Results of Infiltration for Biceps Tendonitis Guided by Ultrasound vs Anatomical Repairs: Variation in Technique
Sponsor: Hospital Universitario San Ignacio
Summary
A randomized clinical trial aimed at comparing the functional outcomes of brachial biceps infiltration guided by anatomical landmarks versus ultrasound guidance. Given that ultrasound guidance has shown an efficacy of 91%, this intervention could potentially be more effective in delivering medication to the target area and achieving improved therapeutic outcomes

Interventions
injection in the bicipital groove guided by anatomic landmarks
Anatomical landmark-guided puncture involves patient positioning and palpation, whereas ultrasound-guided involves identifying the biceps tendon's axis and inserting the needle parallel to the transducer.
