Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The efficacy of ultrasound-guided injection with corticosteroid and local anaesthetic for GTPS.

    Difference in pain intensity in the lateral hip region at 4 weeks between the 2 treatment groups, as measured by a NRS. Because the timing of the response to an infiltration is not well established we plan to examine pain both at 4 weeks, as well as longitudinally over 4 weeks(evolution of pain over time).

    4 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Number of "responders"

    4 weeks

  • Number of patients with "low residual disease activity"

    4 weeks

  • PGI patient

    4 weeks

  • Lumbar spine function

    4 weeks

  • Hip joint function

    4 weeks

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients complaining of lateral hip pain for more than 1 month.
  • NRS lateral hip pain score ≥ 4 in the preceding week.
  • Failure of another "standard" treatment:
  • Physiotherapy: local therapy or a stretching program, or
  • Analgesic treatment (minimum of 5 days of consecutive therapy, including, but not limited to, NSAIDs).
  • Typical lateral hip pain reproduced by palpation of the greater trochanter

You may not qualify if:

  • Age younger than 18 years old
  • Concomitant local surgical intervention for tumours, infection or fracture, based on clinical history and physical examination
  • Previous ipsilateral prosthetic hip surgery
  • Scheduled ipsilateral hip surgery within 3 months
  • Fibromyalgia (diagnosis established by a rheumatologist)
  • Flair of chronic inflammatory joint disease (as defined by a rheumatologist)
  • Skin lesions at the injection site
  • Allergy to one of the studied drugs
  • Anticoagulation with internal normalized ration (INR) \>3
  • Blood coagulation disorder, such as haemophilia.
  • Serious and uncontrolled psychiatric disease (as assessed by the clinician as a contraindication for steroid)
  • Other contraindications to steroid use, such as:
  • uncontrolled diabetes (non-fasting blood glucose \> 10 mmol/L)
  • unstable hypertension (systolic pressure \> 160mmHg or diastolic pressure \> 100mmHg), or
  • open or closed angle glaucoma.
  • +4 more criteria
