Comparison of Capsular Stretching and Passive Joint Mobilization in Idiopathic Adhesive Capsulitis

March 4, 2024 updated by: Riphah International University
The aim of this research is to determine the effects of capsular stretching versus passive joint mobilization on Pain, range of motion and Quality of life in patients with Idiopathic Adhesive capsulitis.

Conditions

Detailed Description

In reference study, patients with Adhesive capsulitis were given the option to examine the immediate effects of posterior capsule stretching and scapular mobilization. They came to the conclusion that extending the posterior capsule improved shoulder range of motion. Current study will assess all shoulder movements and also showing effect on Quality of life of patients with adhesive capsulitis.

  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Cyriax capsular stretching
Patient will be subjected to Hot Pack prior to treatment. Detailed intervention will include Active range of motion exercises,Home plan exercises.Anterior, Posterior and inferior capsular stretching.

Hot Pack for 5mins,Active range of motion exercises (10 reps x 3 sets),Home plan include: wand exercises, wall-walking exercises, pendulum exercises,towel stretch exercises, Cross Body Adduction (10reps x 2 sets, each)Cold pack for 5 mins.

Anterior, Posterior and inferior capsular stretching would be performed. Each stretch should be held15-30 seconds and repeated 2 to 4 times.

Active Comparator: Mobilization
Patient will be subjected to Hot Pack prior to treatment. Detailed intervention will include Active range of motion exercises,Home plan exercises and Maitland's Mobilization:

Hot Pack for 5mins,Active range of motion exercises (10 reps x 3 sets),Home plan include: wand exercises, wall-walking exercises, pendulum exercises,towel stretch exercises, Cross Body Adduction (10reps x 2 sets, each)Cold pack for 5 mins.

Maitland's Mobilization: Inferior glide (10x3), posterior glide, (10 reps x 3 sets), anterior glide (10 reps x 3 sets)

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Numeric Pain rating scale
Time Frame: 4th week
The Numeric Pain rating scale is a segmented numeric version of the visual analog scale (VAS) in which a respondent selects a whole number (0-10 integers) that best reflects the intensity of his/her pain.
4th week
Range of motion (shoulder flexion)
Time Frame: 4th week
changes in shoulder flexion Range of motion from baseline to final session was measured
4th week
Range of motion (shoulder extension)
Time Frame: 4th week
changes in shoulder extension Range of motion from baseline to final session was measured
4th week
Range of motion (shoulder abduction)
Time Frame: 4th week
changes in shoulder abduction Range of motion from baseline to final session was measured
4th week
Range of motion (shoulder external rotation)
Time Frame: 4th week
changes in shoulder external rotation Range of motion from baseline to final session was measured
4th week
Range of motion (internal rotation)
Time Frame: 4th week
changes in shoulder internal rotation Range of motion from baseline to final session was measured
4th week
