Title:
Study Of The Efficacy And Safety Of Sonotron In The Treatment Of Pain In Human Subjects With Osteoarthritis Of The Knee.
Description:
Check out how the Instrumentation Systems Center of the University Of Wisconsin, USA, conducted a multicenter short term, single administration, double blind randomized placebo controlled study of the efficacy and safety of Sonotron in the treatment of pain in human subjects with osteoarthritis of the knee. They found Sonotron to show a high probability that the subjects' assessment of pain one week after administration was reduced in the treated relative to the untreated control subpopulation. These measures were knee joint pain on passive motion (p-0.001) and knee joint pain at rest (p=0.003). Data was analyzed by Chi-Squared analysis on eleven non-parametric measures to compare the relative responses of the randomly assigned control and treated subpopulations. None of the subjects in the study reported adverse reactions to administration of the Sonotron which the investigators deemed significant or long lasting.
