Background The absence of any agreed-upon tendon health-related domains hampers advances in clinical tendinopathy research. This void means that researchers report a very wide range outcome measures inconsistently. As result, substantial synthesis/meta-analysis research findings is almost futile despite publishing busily. We aimed to determine options for, and then define, core for tendinopathy. Methods conducted Delphi study healthcare professionals (HCP) patients three-stage process. In...
