Elbow joint movement is assisted by muscles and tendons. Elbow issues occur when any of these structures are damaged or ill. Lateral epicondylitis (LE) is the most common overuse injury of the elbow, popularly known as the "Tennis Elbow." LE is a condition that causes substantial discomfort and dysfunction in the upper extremity. Thermal and electrical agents are examples of conservative techniques. Lateral epicondylitis is an important public health concern since it frequently occurs as a result of the occupation. It also happens in recurrent upper extremity motions including computer use, hard lifting, forceful forearm pronation and supination, and repetitive vibration which are the most common activities performed by an engineer. This review aims to determine the effectiveness of PowerBall: A Gearing System-based rehabilitation in an individual with Lateral Epicondylitis. Three databases (PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science) were searched from 2008 till date. Studies on the effect of PowerBall-based rehabilitation in individuals with Lateral Epicondylitis. High-quality trials were chosen for the study. 20 articles were extracted, and 5 articles were included in the study emphasizing the importance of rehabilitation using PowerBall. Studies show inconsistent results on the use of PowerBall in patients with Lateral Epicondylitis. The benefits and reasons for the success of PowerBall applications for rehabilitation were outlined in this systematic research. According to the existing evidence, patients may benefit from using PowerBall for rehabilitation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
