Filter by: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.
This is a randomized controlled trial in which patients with moderate to severe shoulder pain (Visual Analog Scale (VAS) > 40), in the setting of rotator cuff tendinopathy refractory to conservative treatment, will be enrolled. The primary aim of the study is to estimate the effect of transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) with physical therapy (PT) vs PT alone on the change in shoulder pain at 12-month follow up. Scientific objectives also include an assessment of safety of the intervention, assessment of changes in Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Upper Extremity score, Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) scores, MRI Tendinopathy Score between the TAE + PT and PT groups.
Graded motor imagery (GMI): used successfully in chronic, complex and painful clinical conditions accompanied by many pain and movement problems; It is a treatment, education and rehabilitation process that is based on recently obtained scientific data and current clinical studies, is individually adapted and approaches the individual holistically with a biopsychosocial model. Nowadays, it is frequently used in the treatment of some neurological diseases. In addition, these approaches are also used in the treatment of some orthopedic diseases including chronic pain. There are a limited number of studies in which the mentioned approaches are used together in stages, and the stages are mostly used alone. There is only one study in the literature on subacromial pain syndrome (SAS), which is the most common cause of shoulder pain and causes radiator cuff problems. Stage 2 SAS patients were included in the study and only one phase of GMI treatment was used in addition to the traditional physiotherapy program. Despite these positive results in favor of GMI, the fact that there is no study using the entire GMI treatment in SAS shows us that a randomized controlled and blinded study with high evidence value should be conducted on this subject. In addition, determining the effect of GMI on changes in central nervous system such as fear of pain, two-point discrimination, and left/right lateralization speed and accuracy task will help fill the literature gaps on this subject. In the light of this information, the question of planned master's thesis study is the effect of GMI treatment applied in addition to traditional physiotherapy in SAS on pain level, joint range of motion, functionality, pain-related fear, two-point discrimination and left/right lateralization speed and accuracy compared to only traditional physiotherapy. whether it is superior or not.

Objective: We aim to compare the efficiency of the ultrasonography-guided suprascapular nerve block (SSNB) and ultrasonography-guided intra-articular shoulder injection (IAI) techniques in terms of pain and functional status in the treatment of adhesive capsulitis. Design: 60 patients with adhesive capsulitis were divided into two groups: SSNB and IAI. Both groups received an injection of 1 ml of 40 mg of triamcinolone acetonide and 9 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine hydrochloride. The patients' Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) scores, shoulder active and passive range of motions (ROM), and visual analog scale (VAS) scores were evaluated before and after the injection in the 1st week, 4th week, and 12th week.
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the first-line treatment for symptomatic gallstones. Pneumoperitoneum is the process of expanding the abdominal cavity during the surgical procedure by introducing CO2 gas into the abdomen to widen the field of view and operation. Although CO2 gas is usually released through the subumbilical incision at the end of laparoscopic cholecystectomy, some CO2 gas remains in the peritoneal cavity. This CO2 gas remaining in the peritoneal cavity can cause abdominal distension. Abdominal distension may also increase postoperative pain. In a study, abdominal distension was observed in 42.7% of patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia. Although CO2 gas is usually released through the subumbilical incision at the end of laparoscopic cholecystectomy, some CO2 gas remains in the peritoneal cavity. This CO2 gas remaining in the peritoneal cavity may cause abdominal distension. On the other hand the incidence of shoulder pain due to pneumoperitoneum and CO2 insufflation after laparoscopic surgery ranges from 35% to 60%. In a study conducted in the Republic of Korea in 2016 in 105 laparoscopic surgery patients, the incidence of shoulder pain after laparoscopy was found to be 80% in the first 24 hours. Inappropriate treatment of postoperative pain in laparoscopic surgery can lead to delayed mobilization, patient dissatisfaction, delayed hospital discharge, and development of chronic pain. In this study, the effect of respiratory exercises and the use of incentive spirometry in the early postoperative period on abdominal distension, shoulder pain and mobilization process in laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients will be examined. We aimed to evaluate the effect of deep breathing exercises and the use of incentive spirometry in the early postoperative period on abdominal distension and shoulder pain due to insufflation procedure in laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients. It is important to take some precautions from the early period to prevent problems that may develop after abdominal surgery. It is thought that the use of deep breathing exercises and incentive spirometry in the early period after laparoscopic cholecystectomy will have an effect on abdominal distension, shoulder pain and mobilization process due to the insufflation procedure.
Interscalene blocks are frequently performed to decrease postoperative pain after shoulder surgeries and are considered the gold standard for pain control after this type of surgery. Some patients report pain in the axilla (armpit) following shoulder replacement surgeries. Sensation in the axilla is supplied by nerves not covered by the interscalene block. Sensation in the axilla can be decreased by performing an intercostobrachial nerve block. This study aims to study whether adding an intercostobrachial nerve block to the interscalene block decreases recovery room stay time, opioid pain medication requirement, and postoperative pain scores.
The purpose of this study is to assess shoulder pain at rest (average over the last 24 hours) assessed by visual analogue scale from 0 to 100mm on Day 1.
Through this prospective, single-arm cohort pilot study, we plan to explore the safety and effectiveness of Shoulder Radiofrequency Ablation (SRFA) in patients with non-operative chronic shoulder pain due to shoulder osteoarthritis with or without rotator cuff tears.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of muscle energy technique versus Maitland's mobilization on shoulder pain and disability after neck dissection surgeries.
