Is Combined Steroid and Sodium Hyaluronate Hydrodilatation More Effective Than Isolated Steroid Hydrodilatation in Treating Patients With Adhesive Capsulitis

Steroid and Sodium Hyaluronate Hydrodilatation

This study was conducted to compare the efficacy of hydrodilatation with steroid with hyaluronic acid and steroid for treating adhesive capsulitis.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Design: a prospective, double-blinded, randomized, clinical trial

Patient and methods:

Patients with adhesive capsulitis for at least 3 months were enrolled and randomly allocated into group 1 (hydrodilatation with steroid ) and group 2 (hydrodilatation with hyaluronic acid and steroid). The patients were evaluated before treatment and were reevaluated 0, 6, and 12 weeks after the beginning of the treatment. Outcomes measures included a pain scale (visual analog scale), range of motion, Shoulder Pain And Disability Index

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
change in pain intensity
Time Frame: 0, 6, 12weeks
pain intensity was measured by visual analog scale (0-10)
0, 6, 12weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
change in Shoulder Pain And disability index
Time Frame: 0, 6, 12 weeks
The Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) is a self-administered questionnaire that consists of two dimensions, one for pain and the other for functional activities. The pain dimension consists of five questions regarding the severity of an individual's pain. Functional activities are assessed with eight questions designed to measure the degree of difficulty an individual has with various activities of daily living that require upper-extremity use. The SPADI takes 5 to 10 minutes for a patient to complete and is the only reliable and valid region-specific measure for the shoulder.
0, 6, 12 weeks
change in glenohumeral joint range of motion
Time Frame: 0, 6, 12weeks
Shoulder flexion, abduction, external rotation and internal rotation were measured with goniometer with patient in supine position.
0, 6, 12weeks
