Summary

A prospective, multicentre, randomized controlled study comparing the efficacy of conservative treatment for early adhesive capsulitis

Detailed description

This clinical trial evaluated the most common protocols for the treatment of adhesive capsulitis in secondary hospitals. To compare the efficacy of manipulation under anesthesia and supervised home conservative treatment of early adhesive capsulitis.

Conditions

• Adhesive Capsulitis

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	manipulation under anesthesia	After the anesthesia took effect, the patient was placed in the supine position, and the experienced surgeon stood at the head of the bed to release the affected limb by four angles of forward flexion, abduction, external rotation and internal rotation. After the operation is completed, 1ml de Bosson (MSD) +2.5ml sodium hyaluronate (Biochemical Industries Co., LTD.) is injected once.
PROCEDURE	supervised home rehabilitation	The doctor instructs the patient in exercise training at the outpatient clinic. At each clinic visit, the doctor will guide the different stages of the movement. At the first visit, the doctor guides the patient through the first phase of the rehabilitation program to improve the patient's basic mobility. At the first month of follow-up, the second phase of rehabilitation program was guided, and the recovery of mobility was accompanied by muscle training, including wall climbing and muscle resistance exercises. 1ml Debossone (MSD) +2.5ml sodium hyaluronate (Biochemical Industries Co., LTD.) was injected once at the clinic. All the training required patients to do their best at home to complete 3 sets of 5 each. At the end of each day, the patient will upload a video to the platform, and the doctor will evaluate whether the patient's recovery is in place.
