About this study

This study on frozen shoulder addressed the null hypothesis that there is no difference in the motion of scapula against the thoracic wall between affected and non-affected shoulder.

Read the detailed description

Adult patients with unilateral shoulder pain lasted for more than one month, accompanied by passive and active limitation of range of motion in all directions will be included. Patients with bilateral involvement, history of trauma, history of surgery on the affected shoulder, history of fracture, shoulder osteoarthritis, symptoms less than one month and any signs of rotator cuff tear will be excluded. MR imaging will be done to exclude other pathologies and frank rotator cuff tear.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Bilateral shoulder anteroposterior radiographyRadiation

    1. Patient standing with the tube in front and 105 cm far from the shoulder radiating perpendicular to the cassette in the back, both arms hanging aside the trunk in 0 degrees of arm abduction, 0 degrees of rotation and 0 degrees of extension with the thumb facing forward to obtain true bilateral shoulder anteroposterior view. Voltage and exposure time differs regarding each person's body mass.
    2. In the same position, the patient only elevates the arm up to 90 degrees of abduction.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Bilateral shoulder anteroposterior radiography in people with Frozen Shoulder, run by Mashhad University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Iran.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Iran. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Radiographic parameter (scapulothoracic angle) measured in angle (time frame: one year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Jun 2014.
