About this study

Official title: Clinical and Functional Outcomes of a Single Dose Ozone, Three Doses of Ozone and Corticosteroid Injection in Patients With Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

Ozone injection has lately been utilized as a safe alternative to corticosteroids in the management of musculoskeletal diseases with fewer side effects. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of a corticosteroid, single dose and three doses of ozone injection in shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS).

Read the detailed description

A hundred and eight SIS patients were divided into three groups and underwent subacromial injections in this prospective study. Group 1 received a single dose (n:36), group 2 (n:36) received three doses of ozone injection (n :36). Group 3 (n:36) was treated with a corticosteroid injection. Patients were evaluated using the visual analog scale (VAS) and Constant Murley Score (CMS), pre-injection and at 4 weeks and 12 weeks.

Being tested
combined oxygen-ozone and corticosteroid

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing combined oxygen-ozone and corticosteroid in people with Research on the Effectiveness of a Corticosteroid, Single Dose and Three Doses of Ozone Injection in Shoulder Impingement Syndrome, run by Erzurum Regional Training & Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Mar 2022. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

The visual analog scale (VAS) (time frame: 3 months). 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 31 Mar 2022.
