What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Numerical pain rating scale

    patients rate their pain from 0 to 10, from 0 to 20, or from 0 to 100. Zero represents "no pain," whereas 10, 20, or 100 represents the opposite end of the pain continuum (e.g., "the most intense pain imaginable," "pain as intense as it could be," "maximum pain").

    Measured: Change from Baseline in pain to 6 week

  2. Universal Goniometry

    Universal goniometer (UG) is commonly used as a standard method to evaluate range of motion (ROM) as part of joint motions.

    Measured: Change from Baseline in range of motion to 6 week

  3. Shoulder Pain and Functional Disability Index

    The Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) is a self-administered questionnaire consisting of items grouped into pain and disability subscales.

    Measured: Change from Baseline in disability to 6 week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Active Release Technique and muscle energy technique in people with Adhesive Capsulitis, run by University of Lahore at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Jul 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 Pakistan. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Numerical pain rating scale (time frame: Change from Baseline in pain to 6 week). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 7 Jul 2022.
