Tendinopathy - why terminology matters

Monash Musculoskeletal Research Unit podcast

Every good conversation starts with an introduction, and getting everyone's names right...

In the second MMRU discussion episode, Peter and Luke discuss the ICON 2019 consensus statement on clinical terminology in tendinopathy published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine.

• Why is it important that researchers, clinicians and patients use consistent terminology for tendinopathy (all for all conditions for that matter)?
• What was it like being a part of the development of an international consensus statement?
• What methods are used for a consensus statement?
• What were the recommendations and what's next?
