Active clinical trials for "Bursitis"

To compare the effects of Spencer technique and Cyriax deep friction massage on pain, range of motion (ROM) and functional disability of the shoulder in Adhesive capsulitis

The investigators compared the results of the ultrasound-guided anterior and posterior approaches to administer glenohumeral steroid injections to patients with primary adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder joint by a single experienced provider.

Patients presenting with subacute, less than 6 months of evolution, adhesive capsulitis are randomly attributed to the control or study group. Both groups receive a series of 3 suprascapular nerve blocks under ultrasound guidance with either 5ml saline or 5ml ropivacaine 2mg/ml ( ref) at 1 week interval. Testing consists of glenohumeral range of motion (ROM) (anterior elevation, lateral elevation, external and internal rotation) measured by goniometer, Constant score and visual analog scale (VAS) pain score. Evaluations are done immediately before and one hour after every suprascapular block and at 4 weeks after the third suprascapular block. All suprascapular nerve blocks are performed by one physician and the evaluations are done by a occupational therapist or MD experienced in glenohumeral function evaluations. All practitioners are blinded to the assigned group. All patients continue their pre-study treatment of physiotherapy and per os pain medication. Patients keep a record of analgesics and NSAID use during the trial. Drop-out rate is measured.

The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of a CNS-directed treatment program versus a standard medical and physiotherapy care program on outcomes in participants with FS.Participants will be randomized to receive either a 10 weeks CNS-focused treatment program or standard medical and physiotherapy care.To evaluate the results of the interventions, the subjects will be assessed at the beginning, at the end of the treatment program (week 10) and at 3 and 6 months of follow-up.

Adhesive capsulitis, also known as frozen shoulder (FS), is a condition characterized by the functional restriction of both active and passive shoulder motion with unremarkable glenohumeral joint radiographs findings. Shoulder pain almost exists during the whole course of frozen shoulder. Pain induces muscle spasm and causes pain-spasm-pain cycle resulting in limited range of motion, changed muscle recruitment pattern and finally influences neuromuscular control. Commonly used conservative interventions for FS patients include joint mobilization, corticosteroid injection, exercise, modality and soft tissue mobilization. Despite joint mobilization is the most commonly used manual therapy in patients with FS, the evidence level is weak and the efficacy is not superior to other conservative treatments. Soft tissue mobilization is widely used in lots of musculoskeletal conditions. The effects of soft tissue mobilization include breaking the adhesion tissue and improving range of motion, muscle strength and motor control. However, few studies have investigated the effect of soft tissue mobilization in patients with frozen shoulder. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate and compare the effect of soft tissue biased manual therapy and conventional physical therapy in patients with primary FS.

Adhesive capsulitis is an idiopathic disease characterized by a decrease in the volume of the glenoid capsule, the development of fibrosis and a progressive decrease in the range of joint movement with pain. Shoulder pain and stiffness are accompanied by disability. The purpose of the study is to evaluate and compare the effects of high-intensity laser therapy on pain, disease - related disability and quality of life in patients with shoulder restriction and pain due to adhesive capsulitis.

Adhesive capsulitis (AC) is painful and disabling condition that is associated with a gradual loss of shoulder motion. Intra-articular steroid injection is a common treatment in the initial painful stage of AC, and its use in combination with hyaluronidase may offer increased therapeutic efficacy owing to synergistic effects. We determined the therapeutic efficiency of the co-administration of hyaluronidase in early AC by evaluating symptomatic, anthropometric, and imaging changes.

The main purpose of this study is to compare treatment efficacy of different concentration dextrose injection in chronic subacromial bursitis .

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the ultrasound guided shoulder intra-articular Ozone injection versus pulsed radiofrequency application in patients with shoulder adhesive capsulitis. Primary Outcome : - Pain score using visual analogue scale during rest (VASr) and movement (VASm). Secondary Outcome : Quality of life using Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI). It assesses the overall functionality of the shoulder joint. Levels of serum ICAM -1, and serum high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) are compared before and after treatment intervention.

The aim of this study is to measure the additional effects of thoracic manipulation on pain and restricted shoulder mobility and reducing disability in patients with adhesive capsulitis. A randomized control trail is conducting at Helping hand institute of rehabilitation sciences Mansehra. Patients diagnosed with frozen shoulder were randomized into 2 groups i.e. Group A (n=16) and Group B(n=16) with the help of lottery method. Group A would receive conventional therapy including hot pack, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, stretches and facilitation techniques Group B would receive thoracic manipulation along with hot pack and TENS, stretches and facilitation techniques. The total treatment time is 2 weeks with three sessions per week making a total of 6 sessions. Baseline assessment on 1st visit. 2nd assessment on 6th visit. 3rd assessment on follow up after 3 weeks would be done. The study duration is 6 months. Purposive non probability sampling technique applied. Only 40 to 60 years participants with adhesive capsulitis are including in this trial. Tools use in this study are visual analogue scale (VAS), bubble inclinometer and (disability of arm, shoulder and hand) questionnaire. Data analyzed through statistical package of social sciences version 25.
