About this study
This study is a randomized clinical trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of using interactive digital devices to guide home exercise for patients with frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis).
Background: While exercise therapy is a crucial treatment for improving joint mobility and reducing pain in frozen shoulder patients, ensuring proper technique and compliance during home exercises can be difficult.
Read more
Methodology: The trial plans to enroll 30 participants, randomly assigning them to either an interactive device group or a control group. Both groups will undergo standard hospital rehabilitation twice a week.
Intervention: The intervention group will be provided with an iPhone containing interactive rehabilitation software to perform 15 minutes of guided home exercise daily. The control group will receive standard home exercise education.
Hypothesis: The study hypothesizes that after a 4-week period, the group utilizing the interactive device for home exercise will demonstrate superior improvements in pain, joint angle, grip strength, and quality of life compared to the control group.
Read the detailed description
Background and Rationale Frozen shoulder, formally known as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition causing restricted shoulder movement and significant pain, which severely impacts a patient's quality of life. The disease progression typically involves three stages: freezing, frozen, and thawing. While standard treatments include medication and physical therapy, exercise therapy-specifically home exercise-is a critical component for restoring joint mobility and muscle strength. However, patients often struggle with compliance and correct form when exercising unsupervised at home. This study introduces an interactive digital system to provide real-time guidance, movement monitoring, and immediate feedback to optimize home rehabilitation.
Study Design The study is a randomized parallel experimental clinical trial. It plans to enroll 30 patients diagnosed with adhesive capsulitis from the Rehabilitation Medicine Outpatient Department. Participants are randomly assigned to either an interactive device intervention group (15 patients) or a control group (15 patients). The total intervention period for each participant is 4 weeks.
Intervention Details
- Interactive Device Group: Participants receive standard hospital physical therapy (including manual therapy, electrotherapy, and thermotherapy) twice a week. Additionally, they are provided an iPhone equipped with the "HappyGoGo" interactive rehabilitation software to perform 15 minutes of home exercise daily. The software uses gamified scenarios to guide patients through shoulder flexion, abduction, push/pull, internal/external rotation, and elbow flexion exercises. The system tracks movement, and post-session data (such as joint angles and movement trajectories) is uploaded to a cloud server, allowing the medical team to remotely review the patient's execution quality and daily compliance.
- Control Group: Participants receive the same standard hospital physical therapy twice a week. Instead of the interactive device, they are given standard home exercise education by the clinical staff.
Outcome Measures
Both groups undergo a pre-test before the intervention begins and a post-test exactly 4 weeks later. The trial evaluates the following parameters to compare the clinical effectiveness of the two approaches:
- Pain records.
- Joint angle measurements.
- Grip strength tests.
- Upper limb function (assessed via the DASH questionnaire).
- Quality of life (assessed via the SF-36 scale).
Safety and Monitoring Safety is monitored both in the clinical setting and remotely. For the home exercise component, the assigned movements are low-intensity, and patients are thoroughly trained on the equipment in the hospital prior to taking it home. The medical team actively monitors for adverse events through phone follow-ups and data tracking. Home exercises are suspended or adjusted if a patient experiences significant pain (VAS > 5), extreme exertion (RPE > 9), or is consistently unable to complete more than 40% of the daily exercise program.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
"HappyGoGo" interactive rehabilitation softwareDevice
Core Intervention: Participants are provided with an interactive digital device (an iPhone) equipped with the specialized "HappyGoGo" interactive rehabilitation software.
Home Exercise Regimen: Patients are instructed to use the device to perform 15 minutes of home exercise daily. The software utilizes gamified scenarios to guide them through specific movements, including shoulder flexion, abduction, push/pull, internal/external rotation, and elbow flexion.
Monitoring and Data Collection: As the patient exercises, the device tracks real-time movement data, such as joint angles and movement trajectories. This data is automatically uploaded to a cloud server, allowing the medical team to remotely monitor the patient's exercise form, execution quality, and daily compliance.
Standard Care Included: In addition to the home device, participants also receive standard hospital-based physical therapy (manual therapy, electrotherapy, and thermotherapy) twice a week.
Standard home exercise education alongside standard hospital physical therapyBehavioural
Core Intervention: Participants receive standard home exercise education from the clinical staff, utilizing conventional verbal and written instructions. They do not receive the interactive digital device.
Standard Care Included: Like the experimental group, these participants continue to receive standard hospital-based physical therapy (manual therapy, electrotherapy, and thermotherapy) twice a week.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing "HappyGoGo" interactive rehabilitation software and Standard home exercise education alongside standard hospital physical therapy in people with Frozen Shoulder and Adhesive Capsulitis, run by Taipei Medical University at 1 site in Taiwan.
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 12 Aug 2026. 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 Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
