Filter by:This study aimed to investigate whether laser and neuromuscular electrical nerve stimulation applied in addition to conventional physical therapy exercises in hemiplegic shoulder pain seen in patients with stroke provides an additional contribution to pain, range of motion, spasticity, upper extremity functions and whether the two treatment types are superior to each other.
Background: Hemiplegic shoulder pain is one of the most common complications after a stroke. There are many treatment strategies for this complication. High-intensity laser therapy (HILT) is a new treatment option, and we aimed to compare the effectiveness of conventional electrotherapy agents and HILT in this study. Patients and methods: Participants (N = 42) were randomized into the HILT (n = 21) and TENS+US (n = 21) groups. Group 1 received 3 sessions of HILT per week for 3 weeks in addition to a therapeutic exercise program that performed 5 sessions per week for 3 weeks. Group 2 received conventional physical therapy and a therapeutic exercise program for HSP of 5 sessions per week for 3 weeks. Patients were assessed before and after treatment on the on the 6th week for radiological evaluation with ultrasonography and for clinical parameters with VAS, AMAT, MRS, and FIQ scores.
This study assesses the feasibility and safety of performing osteopathic manual treatment (OMT) for hemiplegic shoulder pain in stroke patients. This study's participants will be adults with a first-time stroke diagnosis in the past 5 years and shoulder pain on the same side affected by stroke. Eligible participants will be placed on study for approximately 6 weeks and given either OMT or a sham treatment each week.
The aims of this study is to investigate sono-guided shoulder steroid injection combined with Kinesiotaping applications in reducing shoulder pain, improving functional performance on upper extremity and quality of life in stroke patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain.
The post-stroke survivors suffered from shoulder pain are very common. The investigators performed Fu's subcutaneous needling (FSN). This experiment used a randomized controlled trial to assess the immediate, short-term and long-term effects of Fu's subcutaneous needling therapy on hemiplegic shoulder pain in patient with stroke.
Effects of TENS and Interference on Pain, Functional Status and Range of Motion in Shoulder Pain in Stroke Patients
In this study, it is investigated that whether Bobath approach is superior to conventional physiotherapy in terms of improving hemiplegic shoulder pain, spasticity and upper extremity functionality in stroke patients.
Hemiplegic shoulder pain is a common clinical consequence of stroke and can result in significant disability.There are several treatments for Hemiplegic shoulder pain. Patient and family education (ie, range of motion and positioning) is recommended for shoulder pain and shoulder care after stroke, particularly before discharge or transitions in care. Ultrasound therapy is frequently used to relieve pain in hemiplegic shoulder; although there were limited evidences of benefit of ultrasound in hemiplegic shoulder. Laser therapy has become increasing use in hemiplegic shoulder pain. Previous study shows that low level laser therapy significantly reduced pain and improved range of motion in hemiplegic shoulder compared with electrotherapy. High intensity laser therapy (HILT) has been known to reduce pain through multiple pathways including central nervous system pathway, peripheral nervous system pathway and tissues pathway. According to Latest systematic review and meta-analysis, HILT significantly improved pain and disability scores compared with control in musculoskeletal disease especially with neck and back pain. To the best of our knowledge, there is no clinical trial regarding the efficacy of HILT in hemiplegic shoulder pain. Therefore, the aim of our study is to investigate the beneficial effects of HILT on pain reduction, ROM and function in patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain.
"The Effect of Hemiplegic Shoulder Pain on Balance, Upper Extremity Function and Quality of Life"
Suprascapular nerve block versus(vs) intra-articular steroid injection in the management of hemiplegic shoulder pain (HSP): a randomised, double blinded, controlled trial BACKGROUND Hemiplegic shoulder pain (HSP) is a common complication of stroke. It can happen as early as one week post stroke with a frequency as high as 72%. HSP can result in significant disability as pain and limited shoulder range of motion (ROM) decrease hand function, reduce participation in rehabilitation activity and delay functional recovery of the patients. Management of HSP focused on reducing pain and improving shoulder ROM. Minimally invasive treatment of HSP with intra-articular shoulder steroid (IAS) injection and supra-scapular nerve block (SSNB) have gained interest. OBJECTIVES Primary objective: 1. To assess the analgesic effect of SSNB vs IAS in HSP among Malaysian stroke population. Secondary objectives: 2. To assess the improvement of passive ROM post SSNB versus IAS in HSP. 3. To assess for improvement of functional outcome post SSNB versus IAS in HSP. METHOD A prospective, double blinded interventional study will be conducted in the Rehabilitation Medicine Clinic, University of Malaya Medical Centre for a duration of 1 year. Eligible subjects will be enrolled from all referrals of hemiplegic shoulder pain (HSP), following computer-generated randomization they will be allocated to either supra-scapular nerve block (SSNB) (intervention) or intra-articular shoulder steroid injection (IAS) (control) groups. The subjects and assessors are blinded to the intervention received, which will be performed by an experienced interventionist, not participating in randomization or data collection and analysis. Demographics of participants time since stroke, etiology, presence of spasticity, Numerical Rating Score (NRS) pain score at maximal passive ROM, maximum passive ROM of shoulder flexion, abduction, internal and external rotation as well as SDQ and SPADI will recorded prior to injection, 1 hour, 1 month and 3 months post injection. Mann-Whitney U tests and Chi-Square test of association will be used as appropriate to compare groups at baseline. Shoulder ROM and NRS pre and post intervention will be analysed using paired t-test and ANOVA. Functional outcome of SDQ and SPADI pre and post intervention will be analysed using paired t-test as well.
