Aidan Rich, Jillianne Cook, Andrew Hahne, Jon Ford

PMID 40469642

WHAT IT FOUND

No patient outcomes are reported.

This commentary describes a staged physiotherapy protocol for proximal hamstring tendinopathy, so it does not show whether the approach works.

What this paper is

This is a clinical commentary describing an individualized physiotherapy protocol for proximal hamstring tendinopathy. It contains no methods, participants, results, or outcomes. It notes that a randomized controlled trial using the protocol is underway, so there is no finding here to change practice on.

Declared interests

The authors report no conflicts of interest. The work was funded by La Trobe University.

The easy way to misread this

Do not treat the described protocol as proven effective for proximal hamstring tendinopathy. This paper is a commentary, not a trial, and reports no patient outcomes.
