Effects of Combining Mobilization With Movement and Spencer's Technique in Diabetic Adhesive Capsulitis Patients

Adhesive Capsulitis Clinical Trial

Official title: Effects of Combining Mobilization With Movement and Spencer's Technique in Diabetic Adhesive Capsulitis Patients

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This study will be a randomized control trial conducted on 44 patients diagnosed as adhesive capsulitis in headquarter hospital Gujar khan. Subjects will be divided equally into 4 groups (n=11 in each group) that are Group A, B, C and D by sealed envelope method. Pre-intervention assessment will be done by using data collection tools and then intervention will be applied. Group A will receive mobilization with movement (MWM) technique along with Spencer's muscle energy technique (MET) with conventional therapy. Group B will receive MWM along with conventional therapy. Group C will receive Spencer's MET along with conventional therapy. Group D will receive conventional therapy alone. All subjects will be given a home exercise plan. Assessment will be done after 1st session, 1st week, 2nd week, 3rd week and finally after 2 weeks on follow up using data collection tool. Data collection tools are semi-structured questionnaire (informed consent, demographic details, goniometric measurements), Visual analogue scale (VAS), shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI) and universal goniometer.

Clinical Trial Description

One of the numerous disorders that causes pain and increase resistance to the active and passive movements of shoulder is the adhesive capsulitis. The pathology of the shoulder can be the extrinsic or intrinsic that induces pain and stiffness that is why the treatment should be according to the actual cause of pathology. Another term which is used for these pathology is 'Frozen Shoulder' which is used by the Codman for the first time in history. Adhesive capsulitis does not represent a single pathology rather it is applicable to most of the conditions that causes myospasm most specifically adhesion that forms in the bursa or joint capsule and rotators of the shoulder. Most specifically the term adhesive capsulitis is actually a pathology that includes the capsule's inflammation which results in thickness and fibrosis and consequently adherence to the shoulder as well as the neck of humerus. About 2%-5% of the global population is affected by the adhesive Capsulitis that's why it is considered as a common condition. Frozen shoulder the alternative term for adhesive capsulitis affect the 2% of the total world population because of the absent of most accurate criteria for diagnosis and sometime due to the over diagnosis. It is uncommon in people under the age of 40, peak prevalence is in people elder than 40 and younger than 60 and is uncommon in people above 70years except for secondary cause and in the manual workers as according to a cumulative incidence of 2.4 persons per 1000 in a year. Economically the impact of adhesive Capsulitis is underscored i-e 8.2% for men and 10.1% for women for adults in working age. It is more prevalent in women as compared to the men. It cannot develop in the same shoulder after the first time but in 20% of people it is seen to develop in the opposite Shoulder.14% of patients have seen to develop in both shoulders at one time, and 80% are those who develop this condition on opposite side within the next five years. Frozen shoulder is mostly common in patients suffering from diabetes mellitus. 71.5% of the people are estimated to have the diabetes and frozen shoulder at the same time half of them are previously diagnosed with type I or type II diabetes mellitus and remaining have high glucose tolerance test or increased fasting glucose level.The suspected risk of having frozen shoulder have increased a 10% to 20% in people who are diabetic, having 4% point prevalence, and 2-4 times on greater risk as compared to normal population. ;
