Filter by:The goal of this interventional study is to compare the outcomes of two different injection aprroaches in patients with frozen shoulder. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is hydrodilatation better than intraarticular corticosteroid injection? - Is there any prognostic factors that will help clinicians guide their decision making when choosing between these two treatments? Participans will receive an injection(cortcosteroid and local anesthetics alone or with hydrodilatation-corticosteroid and local anesthetics plus sterile saline solution) and then they will follow a rehabilitation program.
Trigger points (TP) are described as "hard, palpable nodules located within the taut bands of skeletal muscle". The aim of this study is to evaluate the reproductibility of palpation of TP between osteopaths and to compare this perception to ultrasound measures of echogenicity. Method: A sample of 61 patients will be included in the study. An osteopath will determine the eligibility of the study. The supraclavicular area will be mark every 2 cm to establish a grid for all evaluations. All included osteopaths will receive a formation to test and treat with the same approach and the same strength during all stages. First an osteopath will evaluate with palpation the presence of TP at every box of the grid. A second osteopath will evaluate the same boxes and will be blinded to the result of the first osteopath. At each step of palpation, a pain assessment will be carried out at each box. Then, the ultrasound technician will evaluate the echogenicity of every box and will be blinded to the prior results. Every patient with a TP diagnosed by the first osteopath, will be randomised into two groups (inhibition of trigger point technique with a long standing press on the TP, placebo technique with four light touch techniques on both shoulders, sternum and rachis). The second osteopath will evaluate the same boxes and will be blinded to the randomisation process. At each step of palpation, a pain assessment will be carried out at each box. The ultrasound technician will evaluate an other time the echogenicity of every box and will be blinded to the prior results, and randomisation. A blinded statistician will evaluate the efficacy of inhibition technique on echogenicity and patients' pain during the tests. The protocol has been approved by a french ethic committee.
The primary aim is to compare the efficacy of neurofeedback training (NFT) and pain management protocol (PMP) in pain reduction, restoration of shoulder function, and improved cognitive performance as the post-operative rehabilitation protocols in shoulder pain patients.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare how a program of proprioceptive exercises for the shoulder could influence in pain, functionality, quality of life and shoulder muscle overload in people that are undergoing a immobilization period after a wrist fracture. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Study the relationship between shoulder muscle overload and shoulder pain. - Evaluate the effect of a proprioceptive program on pain and patient's satisfaction. Intervention will be: - Control group: participants of this group are not going to receive any protocol of exercises during the immobilization period. - Experimental group: participants of this group are going to receive a protocol of proprioceptive shoulder exercises to do during the immobilization period. Researchers will compare control and experimental group to see if a implantation of a proprioceptive program for the shoulder has benefits on pain, function, quality of life and muscle overload.
The study compares between the success rate of interscalene block and upper trunk block performed by anesthesia trainee for intra and postoperative analgesia during shoulder arthroscopy. The duration of performing the block, guidance intervention by the consultant and block failure will be recorded.
This randomized clinical trial aims to compare the efficacy of corticosteroid injection and tendon dry needling for the treatment of subacromial impingement syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of mild hydraulic distension with intra-articular corticosteroid injection for the treatment of subacute hemiparetic shoulder pain with a capsular pattern of restricted shoulder motion.
Trigger points (TP) are described as "hard, palpable nodules located within the taut bands of skeletal muscle" (Bardoni, 2022). The aim of this study is to evaluate the reproductibility of palpation of TP between osteopaths and to compare this perception to ultrasound measures of echogenicity. Method: A sample of 61 patients will be included in the study. An osteopath will determine the eligibility of the study. The supraclavicular area will be mark every 2 cm to establish a grid for all evaluations. First an osteopath will evaluate with palpation the presence of TP at every box of the grid. A second osteopath will evaluate the same boxes and will be blinded to the result of the first osteopath. At each step of palpation, a pain assessment will be carried out at each box. Then, the ultrasound technician will evaluate the echogeneicity of every box and will be blinded to the prior results. The protocol will be approve by a french ethic committee.
In this study, for the first time in our country, acupressure will be examined on post-cesarean shoulder pain and breastfeeding self-efficacy by using a combination of shoulder (GB21), hand (LI4) and leg (ST36) points and applying acupressure as repeated sessions.
Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of motor imagery on muscle activity, pain, and function in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Methods: As a result of the power analysis (G-Power), 36 participants are planned to be included in this study Block randomization will be used to divide participants into 2 groups, each with at least 18 participants: Group 1 (MI group) and Group 2 (Control group) (Randomizer.org). Both groups will receive a 4-week physical therapy program. MI (Motor Imagination) group will receive a motor imagination program in addition to the physical therapy program. Data will collect using the visual analog scale (VAS), goniometric measurement, circumference measurement, Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand Questionnaire (DASH), Kinesthetic and Visual Imagery Questionnaire- KVIQ-20, Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale, 3-question satisfaction questionnaire, superficial Electromyography (EMG) (BTS Bioengineering Free EMG 100 RT). Practice Implications: The current study will contribute to understanding how motor imagination affects muscle activity and muscle atrophy.
