Active clinical trials for "Bursitis"

Adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder) is a condition of uncertain etiology characterized by pain and progressive loss of both active and passive shoulder motion. Shoulder pain and stiffness are accompanied by disability. It is thought that the incidence is 3 to 5% in the general population. Laser therapy is widely used for treating different musculoskeletal diseases, because of its ability to reduce pain and improve the physical function. Also, MWM when used for shoulders with limited range of motion because of pain had shown improvement in range of motion and pressure pain threshold. Previous studies have investigated the efficacy of combining different manual technique with LLLT for treating pain in some body parts. However, up till now the combined effect of MWM with LLLT for treatment of patients with shoulder adhesive capsulitis have not been investigated. So, the present randomized controlled study will be conducted to investigate the effect of adding mulligan mobilization with movement to low level laser therapy in treatment of patients with shoulder adhesive capsulitis.

Adhesive capsulitis refers to the occurrence of pain and a gradual decline in the range of motion (ROM) due to slow increases in synovial hypertrophy and the adhesion between the synovial membrane and articular surface. It leads to the loss of flexibility and difficulties with the activities of daily living (ADLs) due to chronic inflammation accompanied by intra-articular fibrosis. The real cause of this syndrome is unknown but there are some predisposing factors involved such as synovial cell hyperplasia, fibrosis of the capsule due to cytokines or other inflammatory factors. In the current study investigator will compare the effects of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) along with conventional therapy to treat the adhesive capsulitis.

This study aimed to determine the effects of IASTM in combination with exercise in frozen shoulder. Thirty-five patients with phase II frozen shoulder included in this single-blind, randomized study. Patients were divided into two groups. In the first group exercise programme (Group 1) and in the second group IASTM in combination with exercise programme (Group 2) were applied for twelve sessions (two days per week for six week). The primary outcome was the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) score and secondary outcomes were the visual analogue scale (VAS), the range of motion (ROM), The Constant score and Short- Form-36 (SF-36). Outcome measures were performed at baseline, after the 6th session and the 12th session.

A prospective randomized controlled trial enrolled 51 patients diagnosed with shoulder impingement syndrome and mild stiffness. Patients were randomly assigned to two groups: the glenohumeral injection group (Group GH) or the subacromial injection group (Group SA). After the final follow-up, 48 patients (24 in each group) were included for analysis Using ultrasound guidance, a solution containing 1mL of triamcinolone, 4mL of 1% lidocaine, and 7mL of 0.9% normal saline was injected into either the glenohumeral or the subacromial space. The following assessments were conducted at baseline and during follow-up visits at weeks 3, 7, and 13: ROM measurements for forward elevation, external rotation, and internal rotation; clinical scores including VAS, ASES, and Constant.

Adhesive capsulitis is one of the most common problems of the upper limb. Adhesive capsulitis (AC) and frozen shoulder syndrome (FSS) are two terms that have been used to describe a painful and stiff shoulder. Conservative treatment includes transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), Ultrasound, LASER, Range of Motion, stretching and strengthening exercises, patient education, and home exercises. Manual therapy includes mobilization, Spencer's Muscle Energy Technique and Mobilization With Movement.

The aim of this research is to determine the effects of Gong mobilization and Kaltenborn mobilization in patients of frozen shoulder. This is a Randomized clinical trial. The sample size is 40. The subjects are divided in two groups, with 20 subjects in Group A and 20 subjects in Group B. Study duration is of 6 months. Sampling technique applied is Nonprobability Purposive Sampling. Both males and females of aged 40-65 years with Stage-II frozen shoulder are included. Tools used in the study are Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Goniometer, and SPADI (Shoulder pain and disability index) questionnaire.

The objectives of this study are to assess the safety, effectiveness, and immunogenicity of AA4500 in the treatment of adhesive capsulitis.

Inflammation of the trochanteric bursa is a common cause of hip pain. A bursa is a closed fluid filled sac or sac-like cavity found between tissues that function as a gliding surface to reduce friction. Bursitis is the inflammation of the bursa. Inflammation between the trochanteric process of the femur and gluteus medius tendon/ iliotibial tract is the cause of trochanteric bursitis. Several treatments exist for trochanteric bursitis, including a local steroid injection. The injection consists of a mixture of local anesthetic and steroid medications. The steroid is routinely mixed with a local anesthetic. The anesthetic acts to diluent the steroid as well as act as a pain reliever. Various steroid preparations have been used, at varying doses, for trochanteric bursitis. The steroid preparation, triamcinolone is commonly used for various reasons. Besides the procedure associated and injection site risks, risks associated with the use of steroids, though rare, exist. Short term, the steroid can raise blood sugar levels and should be used with caution and be appropriately monitored in diabetics. Additionally, the steroid can suppress the immune system. Long-term risks are related to the dose and frequency of use. These risks include thinning of the skin, easy bruising, weight gain, elevated blood pressure, cataract formation, thinning of bones and joints. Studies have shown the effectiveness of local steroid injections for trochanteric bursitis. Unfortunately, there is limited data on the ideal dose of the steroid preparation. Triamcinolone of 40mg/ mL is commonly used, but, studies have shown effectiveness at various doses, ranging 20 to 160 mg/mL. The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of local steroid injections of various steroid dosages for the treatment of trochanteric bursitis.

Open-label study to be conducted at 2 US investigational sites in subjects who have acute tendonitis or bursitis of the shoulder, elbow, or knee. Eligible subjects receive treatment with the KTP, applied once daily at the same application site for 3 consecutive days.

Achilles tendinitis is a common condition that cause pain along back of leg near the heal. It is an overuse injury of the Achilles tendon, the band of tissue that connect calf muscles at the back of the lower leg to heel bone. There are number of treatment approaches to relieve pain in Achilles tendonitis . Insufficient literature has discuss the combine effect of myofascial release with eccentric resistance. So the aim of the study is to compare the effect of myofascial release with eccentric resistance and without eccentric resistance on pain , range of motion and functional disability in patient with Achilles tendinitis
