Clinical Study of Treatment for Frozen Shoulder with Manipulation Release and Hydraulic Pressure Distension / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of treatment for frozen shoulder by manipulation release combined with hydraulic pressure distension.Methods In this randomized trial,78 patients with frozen shoulder syndrome randomly divided into three groups were enrolled in the study.28 patients were treated by manipulation release under interscalene brachial plexus anesthesia.23 patients were treated by sodium hyaluronate injection into glenohumeral joint combined with manipulation release.27 patients were treated by hydraulic pressure distension combined with manipulation release.All patients were followed for six months.Effective rate evaluation combined with pain evaluation and functional evaluation were adopted for final evaluation.Results There were significant difference between pre-treatment and post-treatment in each group.Effective rate of hydraulic pressure distension combined with manipulation release was 92.6%,which was superior to manipulation release (78.6% ) and sodium hyahronate injection combined with manipulation release ( 82.6% ).There were no significant difference in functional evaluation of the three groups.Conclusion Hydraulic pressure distension combined with manipulation release under interscalene brachial plexus anesthesia is a successful treatment for idiopathic frozen shoulder.
