About this study

Official title: Assessment of the Involvement of the Inferior Glenohumeral Capsuloligamentous Complex in Adhesive Capsulitis Cases Using Shear Wave Elastography: A Study With Magnetic Resonance Imaging Correlation

This study aimed to evaluate the contribution of sonoelastography in the diagnosis of adhesive capsulitis in patients with a clinical prediagnosis of adhesive capsulitis (AC) and inferior glenohumeral capsuloligamentous complex (IGHCC) involvement demonstrated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Read the detailed description

The study will include a total of 30 patients who will be diagnosed with AC based on clinical evaluation by physicians from various clinical departments, including physical medicine and rehabilitation, and orthopedics. The diagnosis will be confirmed by two experienced radiologists specializing in musculoskeletal imaging. Based on clinical evaluation and MRI findings, a control group of 34 individuals without suspected AC will be included. MRI imaging will be performed using a 3 Tesla MRI scanner. Sonoelastography will be performed using a Siemens Acuson-S2000 ultrasound device with a 9L4 (4-9 MHz) linear probe and the Virtual Touch Quantification (VTQ/ARFI) method. Shear wave elastography will be applied to the IGHCC to obtain the mean shear wave velocity (SWV) values. The contribution of sonoelastography in the diagnosis of adhesive capsulitis in patients with a clinical prediagnosis of adhesive capsulitis (AC) and inferior glenohumeral capsuloligamentous complex (IGHCC) involvement will be investigated.

What participants receive

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

  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)Diagnostic test

    MRI imaging is a diagnostic technique that uses magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of the body's internal structures. It provides high-resolution images of soft tissues, organs, and bones, allowing for the detection and evaluation of various medical conditions.Two experienced radiologists specializing in musculoskeletal imaging will evaluate the images obtained through conventional MRI. Cases demonstrating involvement, characterized by findings such as thickening exceeding 4 mm in the inferior glenohumeral capsuloligamentous complex, signal increase indicating edema on fluid-sensitive sequences, and a reduction in axillary recess volume (greater than 0.53 ml), will be included in the study.

  • SonoelastographyDiagnostic test

    Sonoelastography is a medical imaging technique that combines ultrasound imaging with elastography. It is used to assess the mechanical properties and stiffness of tissues in the body.The probe will be carefully positioned perpendicular to the anterior part of the glenohumeral capsuloligamentous complex (IGHCC), ensuring no pressure is applied and preventing anisotropy. It will be specifically oriented in the coronal plane towards the axillary recess. The grayscale examination will reveal irregularly thickened and heterogeneous structures at the axillary recess level in the patient group. On the other hand, in the control group, measurements will be taken from the anterior band of the normal, thin, smooth, and homogeneous structure of the IGHCC.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measuring the Correlation Between MRI Imaging and Sonoelastography Results

    This study aims to compare the measurements of intra-articular glenohumeral capsular thickness (IGHCC) using shear wave elastography in two groups: patients with confirmed adhesive capsulitis based on MRI imaging and patients without adhesive capsulitis on MRI imaging. The correlation between the measured shear wave velocity (SWV) values and the diagnosis of adhesive capsulitis will be examined.By comparing the measurements between and within the groups, the correlation of sonoelastography measurements with MRI imaging in healthy individuals and patients will be investigated using statistical methods. Additionally, the potential impact of sonoelastography on the diagnosis of adhesive capsulitis cases will be examined. This study aims to determine the diagnostic value of sonoelastography in adhesive capsulitis and its potential as a complementary tool to MRI.

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Adhesive Capsulitis, run by Uskudar State Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 inclusion and 5 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 27 Jun 2023. 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.

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?

Contact Hakan H Soylu, M.D. (+905398448025, huseyin.soylu.91@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Measuring the Correlation Between MRI Imaging and Sonoelastography Results (time frame: 1 day). 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 27 Jun 2023.
