简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the combined effects of radial extracorporeal shockwave therapy (rESWT) and evidence-based physical therapy (EBPT) interventions for patients with adhesive capsulitis. The main questions it aims to answer are:
What is the effectiveness of combining rESWT with EBPT interventions for the management of adhesive capsulitis compared to EBPT alone? How does the combination of rESWT and EBPT affect pain, range of motion, and functional outcomes in patients with adhesive capsulitis?
Researchers will compare rESWT plus EBPT to a sham rESWT plus EBPT to see if rESWT provides better results for subjects with adhesive capsulitis.
The study will randomly assign participants to receive either rESWT plus EBPT or sham rESWT plus EBPT over a 6-week intervention period. The primary outcomes will be pain and disability, while secondary outcomes will include shoulder range of motion, psychological distress, and health-related quality of life. These outcomes will be assessed at baseline, post-intervention, and 12 weeks post-randomization.

结局指标
主要结局
Visual analogue scale
时间窗: baseline, and at 7 and 12 weeks
Visual analogue scale for pain intensity measurement (0 (no pain) - 10 (worst pain))
Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand Quick version (DASH)
时间窗: baseline, and at 7 and 12 weeks
Shoulder disability was measured using the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand Quick version (DASH) questionnaire (0-100). It's an 11-item questionnaire that measures a patient's ability to perform specific upper extremity tasks, and higher scores on the scale indicate a higher disability. The scale ranges from 0 to 100; where higher score indicates higher disability.
次要结局
- Short Form-12(baseline, and at 7 and 12 weeks)
- Range of Motion (passive and active)(baseline, and at 7 and 12 weeks)
- Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS-12)(baseline, and at 7 and 12 weeks)
