Abstract:
Objective To detect the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided glenohumeral joint injection combined with distension for treatment of frozen shoulder.Methods Fifty-two patients diagnosed as frozen shoulder by physical and ultrasound examination were performed the ultrasound-guided glenohumeral joint injection combined with distension.Finally,48 patients completed the continuously three times'treatment were included in this study.Patients were assessed using Visual Analogy Score(VAS),the influence of sleeping and the Active Range of Motion(AROM)at the beginning of each time's treatment and at 2 weeks after the third treatment in order to compare the effectiveness of each time's treatment.Results The pain and sleeping influence of the first treatment were significantly improved compared with before treatment(all P <0.05),but the AROM was not significantly improved(P >0.05).The pain,sleeping influence and AROM of the second treatment were significantly improved by comparing with the first treatment respectively(all P <0.05).The pain and AROM of the third treatment were further improved than the second treatment(all P <0.05).However there was no significant improvement of sleeping influence for the third treatment(P >0.05).Conclusions The pain,sleeping influence and AROM of frozen shoulder patients are significantly improved after the treatment of ultrasound-guided glenohumeral joint injection combined with distension for continuous three times,which is an effective treatment for frozen shoulder.
