Filter by:This study was conducted to compare the efficacy of hydrodilatation with steroid via posterior approach versus rotator interval approach for treating patients with adhesive capsulitis.
This study is to test a new treatment method, arterial embolization of the shoulder (AES), to reduce the severity of pain and improve range of motion (ROM), and to see if it can be performed safely.
To investigate the factors associated with improvement after intraarticular steroid injection for patients with Frozen shoulder
We will recruit a total of 40 patients from the Vanderbilt Sports Medicine Clinics who have been diagnosed with adhesive capsulitis and have not undergone any previous treatment. The 40 patients will be randomized, with 20 in the control group of 3 intra-articular injections of 40mg Methylprednisolone spaced every two weeks, and 20 in the experimental group of 3 intra-articular injection of 50mg doxycycline spaced every two weeks. Both groups will begin a standardized physical therapy program within a pain-free range of motion 4 weeks after the initiation of treatment. We will prospectively follow patients for one year, with follow-up at 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 6 months, and 12 months after the initiation of treatment. Outcomes will be measured using the American Shoulder and Elbow Score (ASES) and objective measurements of shoulder range of motion, which will be collected by the treating physician. Both the patients and physicians participating in the study will be blinded.
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of abdominal breathing exercises on pain, sleep quality and quality of life with adhesive capsulitis patients. The 41 adhesive capsulitis patients, 29 women and 12 men aged between 40-65 years, had divided into two groups by simple random sampling. In the study group, abdominal breathing exercise training was applied to routine physiotherapy program, in the control group routine physiotherapy program was applied for 8 weeks. Individuals were assessed for lung function test, range of motion, pain, sleep quality and quality of life. First assesment were performed at the beginning of treatment, 2nd assesment were performed at the end of 8 th week.
This pilot randomized trial will compare the preliminary effect of a regular physiotherapy (PT) program to a regular PT combined with a progressive walking program (PT+) in patients with and without diabetes who have adhesive capsulitis. After signing the consent form, recruited participants will be randomized into either PT group (control) or PT+ group (experimental). Participants in both groups will be referred to a physical therapy facility. The intervention will be chosen by treating physical therapist. In PT+ group, participants will also be asked to perform free walking at their own pace. Outcomes measures for the primary outcome (shoulder functional performance) will be evaluated at baseline and after 6 weeks. Secondary outcomes (shoulder ROM, pain and function, muscle strength, and physical activity level) will be evaluated at baseline, at 3 and 6 weeks, and again at 12 weeks after enrolment. We expect adding a progressive walking program to regular PT will result in better outcomes.
This study aims, by means of a randomized control trial, to investigate which treatment method (corticoid injection + physiotherapy with a focus on manual therapy and home-exercises versus corticosteroid injection + physiotherapy with focus on education and supported home exercises) gives better results on clinically relevant outcomes (range of glenohumeral motion, psychological factors, pain, shoulder function, quality of life) and on parameters derived from arthroscopic glenohumeral investigation by means of MRI. Furthermore, associations between (1) the results on the MRI investigation, (2) the range of glenohumeral motion, (3) shoulder function and pain, and (4) psychological factors will be assessed at different time-points (before and at 6-12-18 and 52 weeks after the first injection).
This study aims to evaluate physical therapy (standard of care) and home exercise vs. home exercise alone for the treatment of adhesive capsulitis.
Patients presenting with subacute, less than 6 months of evolution, adhesive capsulitis are randomly attributed to the control or study group. Both groups receive a series of 3 suprascapular nerve blocks under ultrasound guidance with either 5ml saline or 5ml ropivacaine 2mg/ml ( ref) at 1 week interval. Testing consists of glenohumeral range of motion (ROM) (anterior elevation, lateral elevation, external and internal rotation) measured by goniometer, Constant score and visual analog scale (VAS) pain score. Evaluations are done immediately before and one hour after every suprascapular block and at 4 weeks after the third suprascapular block. All suprascapular nerve blocks are performed by one physician and the evaluations are done by a occupational therapist or MD experienced in glenohumeral function evaluations. All practitioners are blinded to the assigned group. All patients continue their pre-study treatment of physiotherapy and per os pain medication. Patients keep a record of analgesics and NSAID use during the trial. Drop-out rate is measured.
This study was conducted to compare the efficacy of hydrodilatation with hyaluronic acid under ultrasonographic guidance plus physical therapy (PT) with that of PT alone for treating adhesive capsulitis.
