One of the most common shoulder condition in developed and developing countries is Adhesive Capsulitis, also known as Frozen Shoulder. Adhesive Capsulitis is a major cause of shoulder functional disability in patient as it is characterized by painful, restricted range of motion and capsular stiffness leading to difficulty in performing normal ADLs, causing an individual's activity limitations in dressing one's self, performing household chores and participation in the society. This study aims to determine the combined effects of Niel Asher Technique (NAT) and Scapular Clock Exercises on Pain, Range of Motion and Functional Disability in patients with Adhesive Capsulitis. This Randomized Controlled Trial will be conducted was conducted in RC medical Centre Lahore, over a 9-month period. A sample of 34 participants, aged 40-55 years were selected using non-probability convenient sampling. Informed Consent was obtained from all participants. Participants were divided into two groups: Group A received Niel Asher Technique and Scapular Clock Exercises along with conventional physical therapy, while Group B received only conventional physical therapy which included a moist hot pack, Therapeutic ultrasound, Shoulder Active Range of Motion Exercises and Maitland's Mobilization. Treatment duration will be 3 sessions/week for 4 weeks. Outcome measures including Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), Universal Goniometer and Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) Urdu were assessed at baseline and after 4 weeks. Inclusion Criteria includes Stage II and III Adhesive Capsulitis, Positive Capsular pattern with limited both Active and Passive range of motion, shoulder pain with an NPRS score \>3 to ≤8. Exclusion Criteria includes patients with any systemic illness, metabolic disorder, prior history of shoulder surgery or shoulder dislocation. Data was analyzed using IBM SPSS version 27.0.
NCT06490172
Adhesive capsulitis (AC) is a debilitating condition that causes global restriction and pain at the glenohumeral joint. Physiotherapy treatment is often first line treatment management. Patients with failed conservative management are commonly referred to a specialist consultant for further treatment. Over the last 20 years, extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) has gained popularity as a treatment for various orthopaedic presentations, including chronic soft tissue conditions, being non-invasive, resulting in good outcomes with minimal side effects. There is a lack of evidence on the clinical effectiveness of ESWT for chronic AC following failed conservative treatments, with the available literature reporting positive outcomes, however, with heterogeneity in treatment protocols. This proposed study aims to explore the feasibility of a full trial of ESWT as a treatment for AC using a standardised treatment protocol, and clinical effects on outcomes of pain, function and shoulder joint range of movement in persons with chronic adhesive capsulitis. A Delphi study will first explore expert opinion for the optimum treatment protocol of ESWT as a treatment for chronic AC, followed by a mixed methods explanatory sequential study that includes a pilot trial with nested qualitative interviews. The Shoulder Pain and Disability Index, numerical pain rating scale, EuroQol-5D, and digital goniometer will be used to measure self-reported pain and function, pain, health-related quality of life, and shoulder joint range of movement, respectively. Quantitative data will be analysed by descriptive statistics. Qualitative data will be collected through semi-structured interviews. Interview data will be analysed using Braun and Clarke's inductive thematic analysis approach. The study will be conducted in an out-patient clinical setting in a community health hub facility, with patients recruited from an NHS Orthopaedics waitlist. Data collection is planned over a nine month period. This study is not affiliated with funding streams.
NCT04831255
Adhesive capsulitis is a fairly common orthopedic condition that causes pain and loss of range of motion. There are a variety of ways to treat adhesive capsulitis, one of them being an intra-articular steroid injection. This is done to help decrease the inflammatory response caused by adhesive capsulitis. In this study, all participants will receive an intra-articular glenohumeral injection of ZILRETTA and will be followed up with at four time points over 1 year to observe pain, function and range of motion following the injection.
NCT02461368
The investigators compared the results of the ultrasound-guided anterior and posterior approaches to administer glenohumeral steroid injections to patients with primary adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder joint by a single experienced provider.
NCT05977985
Adhesive capsulitis (AC) is a significant cause of chronic shoulder pain and disability. Non-surgical option consisting of intraarticular corticosteroid (IA CS) injection with structured physiotherapy (PT) is the current standard of care. More recent randomized controlled trials have found that rotator interval (RI) hydro-dissection approach leads to better improvement in pain as compared to IA approach. Despite being non-inferior to surgical management, long-term outcome studies of patients treated with IA CS injection and PT have shown that patients only achieve satisfactory outcomes in 72.3% of patients after a mean symptom duration of 41.8 months. Furthermore, CS injections are associated with significant systemic and local adverse effects such as Cushing syndrome, osteopenia/ osteoporosis, infection, and hyperglycemia. In recent years, dextrose injection has emerged as an effective alternative to CS-based injections to treat chronic painful musculoskeletal conditions such as chronic low back pain, peripheral nerve entrapment and lateral epicondylitis. The investigators aim to study the effects of RI hydro-dissection with dextrose 5% (D5%) on pain relief, shoulder ROM and shoulder function in patients with primary AC.
NCT03320200
The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of a CNS-directed treatment program versus a standard medical and physiotherapy care program on outcomes in participants with FS.Participants will be randomized to receive either a 10 weeks CNS-focused treatment program or standard medical and physiotherapy care.To evaluate the results of the interventions, the subjects will be assessed at the beginning, at the end of the treatment program (week 10) and at 3 and 6 months of follow-up.
NCT03929276
Adhesive capsulitis is an idiopathic disease characterized by a decrease in the volume of the glenoid capsule, the development of fibrosis and a progressive decrease in the range of joint movement with pain. Shoulder pain and stiffness are accompanied by disability. The purpose of the study is to evaluate and compare the effects of high-intensity laser therapy on pain, disease - related disability and quality of life in patients with shoulder restriction and pain due to adhesive capsulitis.
NCT03951896
This study was done to investigate whether platelet rich plasma(PRP) injections are effective in the management of adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder(AC).Patients were randomized to 2 groups, and one group took PRP injections for 3 times every two weeks, while the other group took saline injections in same frequency and volume. A standardized exercise programme was also applied to all patients. Patients were then evaluated with Shoulder Pain and Disability Index(SPADI), Visual analogous scales for pain and disability, Ranges of Movements and use of analgesics in before, after and 3rd month of the therapy.
