Detailed Description
Patients presenting with shoulder pain to the study location will be screened by the principal investigator. Once diagnosed clinically with shoulder subacromial impingement syndrome, they will be invited to join the study. They will be invited to separate academic office to be explained about the study, its voluntary and confidential basis as per our Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved protocols.
After signing informed consent form and recruitment, they will be assigned randomly to one of the study arms through software-generated sequential allocation packaged in an opaque envelope. All involved except the principal investigator and patient are blinded.
There are two groups/arms in the study. The experimental arm will include subacromial injection of study subjects with autologous platelet-rich plasma; wheres subjects in the other study arm will be injected with methylprednisolone.
The outcome will be assessed through three scores. The study subjects will be asked to complete Oxford Shoulder Score questionnaire and health-related quality of life SF-36 questionnaire and Constant-Murley score will be measured through physician-based assessment done by the residents involved in the study. This will be done during the baseline visit before injection and repeated at 2, 6, 12 weeks and 6 months follow-up visits.
Also any adverse effects of both treatment arms will be monitored and reported as appropriate.
The investigators hypothesize that injecting platelet-rich plasma into the subacromial space of patients with subacromial impingement will result in decreased pain and increased function at 6 months follow-up (assessed by Constant-Murley Score, Oxford Shoulder Score, and Short Form-36 (SF-36) questionnaire) as compared to patients injected with methylprednisolone.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: platelet-rich plasma group
Autologous platelet-rich plasma subacromial injection
|
Once randomized to platelet-rich plasma arm, the study subject will have 30cc of blood drawn and centrifuged using the "Recover(TM) Platelet Separation Kit" (Biomet Biologics, Warsaw, Indiana, USA).
The extracted platelet-rich plasma part will be re-injected into the subacromial space of the subject's affected shoulder.

Active Comparator: Methylprednisolone group
Methylprednisolone subacromial injection
|
Once randomized to Methylprednisolone arm, the study subject will have an injection with 2ml of Methylprednisolone (40mg/ml methylprednisolone acetate injectable suspension) (Pharmacia Upjohn, Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA) with 2ml of lidocaine hydrochloride 2% (Hameln Pharmaceuticals Ltd, Gloucester, UK) into the subacromial space of their affected shoulder.
