Filter by:The study will be a Randomized Clinical Trial set to take place at the Department of Physical Therapy, University of Lahore Teaching Hospital, Defence Road, Lahore. It is projected to span 9 months, beginning after the approval of the synopsis. The calculated sample size, utilizing Visual Analogue Scale as an outcome measure with a 20% dropout consideration, will be 34 in each group. Ethical approval from the Research Ethical Committee will be sought, and participant referrals will be facilitated by orthopedic physicians. Eligibility screening will be carried out, and willing participants will be randomized into Experimental and Comparative groups using a lottery method. The study will maintain single-blinding, with assessors remaining unaware of group allocation.
The brain contains the body representation necessary for normal functioning, including goal-directed movements and behaviors. Body representation involves integrated sensory input and ideas about one's body. Both executed and imagined movements depend on the representation of the body in the cortical area. Laterilization is one of the motor imagery methods that requires activation of proprioceptive, somatosensory and premotor regions and enables the determination of pain-induced cortical changes. Another method to determine pain-related somatosensory changes is the two-point discrimination test. It is suggested that laterization and sensory acuity responses may change due to long-term pain and stiffness experienced in people with frozen shoulders. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the laterization and sensory acuity abilities of patients with frozen shoulder.
Abstract Introduction Frozen shoulder is a common musculoskeletal disorder with reported lifetime prevalence to be 2%~5% in the general population. Patients with frozen shoulders present with chronic pain and limited range of motion of affected shoulder and often cause an adverse impact on their daily activities and working ability. Shoulder exercises had been proven to be effective in treatment of frozen shoulders and the effects were even better after intraarticular corticosteroid injection. Strategies to enhance home exercise for patients with frozen shoulders are essential. Objective To compare the effects of home exercises delivered by a newly developed app named Defrozen app with that by convention home exercise for frozen shoulder patients after intra-articular corticosteroid injection. Methods and analysis This is a randomized, controlled, assessor-blinded clinical trial. Seventy-eight individuals diagnosed with frozen shoulders will be randomly divided into two groups. The primary outcome will be shoulder pain evaluated by 11-point numeric rating scale. The secondary outcomes will include shoulder passive range of motion (measured with a universal goniometer), , Oxford shoulder score and Disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand questionnaire. Feasibility of the app includes including Technology Acceptance Model (TAM-2), System Usability Scale (SUS) and Usability, Satisfaction and Ease of Use (USE) questionnaire . The treatment will be conducted for 6 months (Defrozen app home exercise x conventional home exercise by instructions from printed pamphlets).All participants will receive outcome measurements assessment prior to randomization , 4 weeks , 12 weeks after injections interventions. Feasibility will be evaluated 4 weeks after intervention in the Defrozen app group. Ethics and dissemination The study protocol was approved by the Institutional Review Board. The findings of the trial will be disseminated through peer-reviewed journals and scientific conferences.
The aim of our study is to investigate the efficacy of high energy density pulse electromagnetic field for patients with frozen shoulder
Objective: To determine whether ultrasound-guided Intra-Articular Hypertonic Dextrose and hydrodilatation improves pain and function in patients with frozen shoulder(FS)
The aim of this study is to compare the effects of activity versus structural oriented treatment approach on pain, range of motion, and function in diabetic patients with frozen shoulder.
Frozen shoulder, adhesive capsulitis, shoulder, platelet-rich plasma, corticosteroid, injection.
The aim of this study is to determine if there is any difference in terms of pain relief in patients with frozen shoulder, when given a steroid injection as a suprascapular nerve block compared to a glenohumeral joint intra-articular injection. The investigators hypothesis is that there is a significant difference in terms of pain relief at 3 months, 6 months and 1 year between a steroid injection as a suprascapular nerve block compared to a glenohumeral joint intra-articular injection. Participants who attend the orthopaedic clinic and are diagnosed with unilateral frozen shoulder and who are suitable to be treated with a steroid injection will be identified. If the participant consents to having a steroid injection, he/she will then be invited to participate in the trial where they will have an injection either into the glenohumeral joint (ball and socket joint of the shoulder) or as a suprascapular nerve block (injection adjacent to a nerve over the shoulder blade) under ultrasound guidance. Participants will then be followed up at 3, 6 and 12 months after their injection and asked to complete a set of questionnaires assessing pain, function and movement. The results of the groups will then be compared to see if one treatment is superior to the other.
Adhesive capsulitis is a fairly common orthopedic condition that causes pain and loss of range of motion. There are a variety of ways to treat adhesive capsulitis, one of them being an intra-articular steroid injection. This is done to help decrease the inflammatory response caused by adhesive capsulitis. In this study, all participants will receive an intra-articular glenohumeral injection of ZILRETTA and will be followed up with at four time points over 1 year to observe pain, function and range of motion following the injection.
Previous research suggests that general practitioners find handling patients with shoulder pain difficult and that the current care for shoulder pain is not in line with the best available evidence (1).This project aims to assess the effectiveness, costs and implementation of an evidence-based guideline for shoulder pain in general practice.
