Clinical Trial Summary

Introduction: Adhesive capsulities or Frozen shoulder is one of the common causes of shoulder pain and disability in the upper extremity. It affects the functions of glenohumeral joint, limiting both active and passive movements of the shoulder. One way of non-surgical treatment method that has been receiving attention recently is extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT). ESWT is a pulsed sound wave, characterized by short duration, high pressure amplitude, and relatively low tensile wave component. ESWT has beenrepotreatingtreat a variety of pain conditions effectively and safely. Purpose: The purpose of the present study is to determine whether ESWT could be effective in thetreatment of adhesive capsulitis or frozen shoulder.


Clinical Trial Description

Methods: Experiment Group patients were given shockwave therapy for 6 weeks as a one session per week follow up after 12 weeks. Control Group patients received shame shockwave therapy inaddition to traditional treatment the same period of the experiment group.Importance: Till date, only a few studies have reported the efficacy and clinical improvements obtained by extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) on frozen shoulder. Limited by asmall number of studies and insufficient outcomes, it is important and necessary to conduct a new randomized controlled trial ;
