High Energy Density Pulse Electromagnetic Field for Patients With Adhensive Capsulitis
Adhesive Capsulitis
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Adhesive Capsulitis focused on measuring adhesive capsulitis, high energy density pulse electromagnetic field
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: Physicians diagnose frozen shoulder by considering the patient's medical background, conducting a physical assessment, and reviewing X-ray and ultrasound findings. The symptoms endure for a duration exceeding 3 months. There exists a decrease of no less than 30 degrees in a minimum of two joint angles of the affected shoulder, namely flexion, abduction, and external rotation, in comparison to the corresponding angles of the unaffected side. Exclusion Criteria: Musculoskeletal ultrasound of the shoulder identifies a full-thickness tear or substantial tear in the rotator cuff tendons or presents calcific tendinitis. Presence of systemic rheumatic disease. Prior history of shoulder fracture or surgical intervention involving the shoulder joint. Acute compression of cervical nerve root. Patients displaying instability (e.g., those with signs of internal bleeding) or individuals with cancer. Recent receipt of shoulder injections for treatment within the last 3 months. Impaired cognitive function that hinders the patient's ability to provide informed consent or engage in rehabilitation therapy. Expectant or breastfeeding women. Meets any of the contraindications for high-energy electromagnetic pulse therapy: individuals with organ transplants, implanted cardiac pacemakers, defibrillators, metal implants (such as stents), cochlear implants, and those requiring insulin supplementation.
