Active clinical trials for "Bursitis"

the volunteers with frozen shoulder will be recruited to this experiment and use devices under a designed experimental procedure. After subjects use device , R&D team will collect subject feedback, efficacy assessments, and various device data. This step will not only help investigators to improve and refine the device but also find the best operating mode and using standard of the device to help the frozen shoulder patients. Subjects in this study will also enter a designed course of treatment. All patients will be distributed equally and randomly to three groups (control , mobilization device, laser acupuncture plus mobilization device) to receive treatment. All groups receive three therapy sessions per week for 8 consecutive weeks. At last, investigators will compare the differences between the three groups to understand the effect of portable laser acupuncture and joint mobilization device on frozen shoulder.

The object of this study is to compare the effect of PRP versus Corticosteroid injection on pain in patients with Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome up to 12 months after treatment. It is believed that PRP will be as good as corticosteroids for short term pain relief, and will produce longer lasting pain reduction.

Adhesive capsulitis is a condition that causes limitation of function and movement in the shoulder joint and affects many activities of daily life. The clinical indicators of adhesive capsulitis; shoulder pain and progressive global stiffness of the glenohumeral joint, night pains and accompanying sleep disturbances, joint capsule contracture, decrease in synovial fluid, abnormal changes in scapular position, functional limitation and consequently decreased quality of life. When we look at the literature, it is seen that traditional rehabilitation practices aim to improve range of motion and reduce pain caused by capsular contracture. In this context, classical therapeutic exercises consisting of stretching and strengthening, joint mobilization methods, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation methods are applied. However, there are limited number of studies investigating the effects of PNF techniques on pain, function and activity limitation. Therefore, within the scope of the research, it is planned to apply a traditional rehabilitation program prepared in accordance with the guidelines for one group, and PNF approaches for the upper extremity and scapula in the other group. Thus, it is aimed to examine the effects of the use of upper extremity and scapula PNF techniques on pain, function, range of motion, proprioception, quality of life, sleep and patient satisfaction compared to traditional exercises in adhesive capsulitis rehabilitation. Exercises will be applied 3 days a week for 4 weeks. Each training session will last 45 minutes. Pain, function, range of motion, proprioception, quality of life and sleep quality evaluations will be performed at the beginning of the study and at the end of 4 weeks.

This is a prospective, self-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of the Quantum spectrum radiation emitter for adhesive capsulitis.

Background: Frozen shoulder syndrome (FSS) or adhesive capsulitits, a condition of uncertain etiology characterized by a progressive loss of both active and passive shoulder motion, is one of the most common musculoskeletal disorders encountered in daily orthopaedic practice and remains challenging to treat. To regain the normal extensibility of shoulder capsule and tight muscular tissues, passive stretching of the shoulder capsule by means of mobilization techniques has been recommended, but limited data for supporting the use of these treatments are available. Due to the performance of techniques (mid-range/end-range mobilizations combined with or without interscalene brachial plexus block), a lack of objective and subjective outcome criteria, an inappropriate research design (case report and clinical trial without control), and utilization of other treatment modalities (home exercises and hot/cold packs), it is not possible to draw firm conclusions about the efficacy of mobilization in patients with FSS. Objective: The aim of our study is to investigate the effect of mobilization treatment and to determine whether a difference of treatment efficacy exists among three mobilization techniques (mid-range mobilization, end-range mobilization, and mobilization with movement) in patients with FSS. Design: We will carry out a crossover multiple-treatment trial on two groups. In group one, an A-B-A-C (A: mid-range mobilization, B: end-range mobilization, C: mobilization with movement) multiple-treatment design will be used. In group two, an A-C-A-B multiple-treatment design will be used. There will be three weeks of each phase. An independent trained outcome assessor, blinded to treatment allocation, will evaluate the participates at baseline and at 3-week intervals for 12 weeks. Outcome assessment include pain perception, disability assessment, and Shoulder complex kinematics and associated muscular activity. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) will be undertaken using the follow up data at 3, 6, 9 and 12 weeks for each of the outcomes, with adjustment for the baseline values of the outcome of interest. Independent t-Tests will be conducted to compare change of outcome variables between two groups (A-B in one group vs. A-C in the other group, A-C in one group vs. A-B in the other group).

Shoulder pain is one of the most common causes of musculoskeletal disability in the adult population. Adhesive capsulitis is one of a multitude of reasons that can cause shoulder pain and dysfunction. It is a painful and disabling condition that can cause frustration for patients and caregivers due to slow recovery time. It is important to meticulously diagnose the source of the symptoms. Adhesive capsulitis is treatment by non-operative therapies such as physical therapy, exercise, steroids & pain medications. For some patients a quicker return to function is necessary; in th is situation an operative treatment is an option. This study will compare two surgical techniques for adhesive capsulitis. Purpose To directly compare outcomes of patients with adhesive capsulitis who have failed pain management and failed improvement in range of motion after at least 3 months of supervised, regimented conservative treatment and have subsequently been randomized to either closed manipulation under anesthesia or arthroscopic capsular release. To blind both patient and assessing physician/nurse study coordinator to the treatment that was received for the duration of the study. This will reduce the effect of any potential bias on the results as much as possible. To collect outcome data, both subjectively from the patient using proven outcome measures, and objectively from regularly spaced follow up visits with blinded assessors. To collect and comment on data from the two treatment groups regarding duration of post-operative narcotic use, duration of post-operative physical therapy required, post-operative pain levels, and elapsed time until back to work/activity post-operatively.

In patients who undergo shoulder manipulation for idiopathic adhesive capsulitis, a postoperative indwelling analgesic pain catheter will improve patient outcomes by decreasing shoulder pain and improving range of motion compared to a single-dose interscalene block.

This is a study on the treatment of frozen shoulder with injection of cortisone into the shoulder joint. The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether injection with stretching of the shoulder capsule or plain injection is more effective than no specific treatment.

This study is to test a new treatment method, arterial embolization of the shoulder (AES), to reduce the severity of pain and improve range of motion (ROM), and to see if it can be performed safely.

This is a long-term follow-up study to evaluate the safety and durability (efficacy) of response to EN3835 compared to placebo in participants who were treated in EN3835-210 or the pivotal Phase 3 parent studies for the treatment of AC of the shoulder (frozen shoulder).
