The specific treatment with extracorporeal Shock Waves is applied on an outpatient basis, therefore not requiring
hospital admission. In treatments on the bone plane, pseudoarthrosis or delayed consolidation, the patient will
be admitted as a control measure for the anesthesia applied. It is a conservative therapeutic process, which has
been used for years and has demonstrated its usefulness and effectiveness in the management of certain painful
processes (tendinopathies in general, shoulder tendonitis, epicondylitis, epitrochleitis, trochanteritis, patellar
tendonitis, Achilles tendinitis and plantar fasciitis). , as well as in the treatment of pseudoarthrosis and/or delays in
bone consolidation.
It is applied through an extracorporeal Shock Wave generator, based on a transducer that, through an
/electromagnetic/piezoelectric/electrohydraulic/ phenomenon, transforms electrical energy into sonic energy. The
generated shock wave is transmitted through a degassed aqueous medium contained between the generator and a
membrane. We use technology with ultrasonic/radiological/laser/locator that allows us to correctly locate the area to
be treated.
1. Hematomas: The appearance of hematomas in the area of application of Shock Waves is not common, except in
those patients who present some type of blood coagulation disorder. If they do appear, they are usually limited to the
application area and generally disappear within a few days.
2. Skin erythema: Sometimes, dermal alterations in the form of erythema may appear in the area of application of
Shock Waves, although their appearance is infrequent and they usually disappear in a few days.
3. Subsequent situations and discomforts derived from this treatment, such as pain in the application area, general
discomfort and lack of symptomatic improvement.
4. The pain usually appears within hours of the treatment and remains during the treatment phase.
It should be treated with usual analgesics or anti-inflammatories.
In the case of increased pain and/or appearance of local inflammation at the site of Shock Wave application in the
hours following the treatment, it is recommended to take regular analgesics, apply local cold and rest the area. treated.
The evolution of the process is slow both in the application of the soft tissues, tendonitis with or without calcification
and in the bony parts to be treated and the final result is in the medium term, objective improvement beginning
approximately after the sixth week. Each patient presents a different evolution over time that will be evaluated in each
particular case. We cannot guarantee results given the processes in which we are immersed. Each patient has a
different previous evolution and therefore the evolution will be different.
