Frozen shoulder remains a challenging disease to treat as pain and loss of range of motion can persist for many months or even years. This loss of function can have a severe impact on the patient's activities, participation and overall quality of life. The use of ultrasound-guided (USG) suprascapular nerve blocks (SSNB) and/or intra-articular corticoid injections (IACI) has been supported by many studies. However, double blinded randomized clinical trials using a combination of SSNB and IACI are rare. The primary objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of a glenohumeral IACI combined with a SSNB, compared to a glenohumeral IACI combined with a sham SSNB. Outcome measures of interest are shoulder-related disability reported by the patients, shoulder pain and shoulder stiffness. These outcome parameters will be compared between both treatment arms with an intention-to-treat analysis. As key secondary objectives, the investigators aim to identify which physical examination tests, or combinations of those, are correlated with MRI diagnostic criteria and favor a more positive evolution. Finally, through predictive analysis the investigators will try to establish which patients benefit the most from the combined SSNB + IACI.
This study will be conducted to examine and compare the effects of SM versus SPNF on shoulder pain, ROM and functional disabilities in patients with frozen shoulder.
This is a double-blind interventional superiority study evaluating the efficacy of suprascapular nerve block in addition to conventional therapies for adhesive capsulitis. Adhesive capsulitis is a pathology that results in reduced shoulder mobility due to retraction of the periarticular capsule. It may be primary or secondary to traumatic or neurological events, or associated with diabetes in particular. The usual treatment includes re-education sessions to improve joint amplitude and restore shoulder mobility. In persistent forms, intra-articular injection of cortisone is combined with distension of the capsule with a local anaesthetic under radiographic control. In some countries, subscapular nerve block (reversible anaesthesia) is used to improve pain. The combination of arthrodistension and subscapular nerve block has never been performed to accelerate the healing process. The aim of this study is to compare the performance of these two procedures together against the reference technique alone on time to improvement with the number of patients improved at one month according to the Constant score. This score is used to assess shoulder pain and function, with a significant improvement above eight points.
This study aims to investigate whether intra-articular corticosteroid injection, followed by hypertonic dextrose injection and shoulder joint capsular distension, is more effective than saline injection and shoulder joint capsular distension for treating frozen shoulder.
The aim of our study is to investigate whether the combination of hypertonic dextrose injection and shoulder joint hydrodilation, in conjunction with physical therapy, can effectively enhance shoulder joint pain relief, improve range of motion, and enhance daily life functionality in patients with frozen shoulder.
The aim is to investigate whether adding small needle-knife therapy to standard Western medicine enhances the treatment of frozen shoulder by evaluating its impact on microcirculation and meridian unblocking.

The aim of our study is to investigate the efficacy of high energy density pulse electromagnetic field for patients with adhesive capsulitis
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.
