Electroacupuncture for the treatment of frozen shoulder: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract: BackgroundElectroacupuncture (EA) has reportedly been successful in controlling pain, but there have been no systematic reviews examining the impact of EA on patients with frozen shoulder (FS). The purpose of this review is to provide evidence on the safety and efficacy of EA for pain management in patients with FS.MethodsWe searched 11 databases from their inception: EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, PubMed, AMED, one Chinese medical database, and six Korean medical databases. Two researchers independently perfor… Show more

“…In contrast, electroacupuncture (EA) has received increasing attention from acupuncturists due to its four clear, quantified and easily controlled stimulation parameters (waveform, frequency, time, and current intensity) ( Omura, 1987 ; Baba et al, 2002 ), and there are more RCTs comparing the effects of different stimulation parameters of EA ( Liu et al, 2017 ; Zheng et al, 2018 ). For example, there are correlations between different frequencies ( Humaidan et al, 2006 ; Yang et al, 2020 ; Yao S. et al, 2020 ), current intensities ( Tamai et al, 2020 ), stimulation time ( Heo et al, 2022 ) and different therapeutic effects, so dose-effect relationship studies of EA provide rich evidence and references for its clinical application. This paper reviewed the different stimulation parameters related to the effect of MA intervention, their common options and values, corresponding effects and potential mechanisms of action.…”
