“…This study confirms that adhesive capsulitis is more predominant in females in the 5 th and 6 th generations, 14 since it is a disease commonly associated with other systemic and non-systemic disorders 15 found in 65.1% of cases, of which 11.6 % were secondary to hypothyroidism. Bilateral disease was one of the study's exclusion criteria and, thus, it was not possible to compare our data with those in the literature, where the prevalence of bilateral disease is reported to be between 20 and 40%.…”

“…9,16,17 However, the progress of research on QoL outcomes contributes to the perception of patients regarding their health and life by providing a validated subjective score of their symptoms, free from medical bias. 1,3,4,6,14 The main objective of this study was to assess QoL and FC in adhesive capsulitis patients using two assessment instruments, WHOQOL-BREF and DASH. Gupta et al studied the impact of adhesive capsulitis in diabetic and elderly patients but used the Oxford Shoulder Score and Short Form-36 (SF-36) to do so.…”

“…They concluded that adhesive capsulitis worsened the diabetics' quality of life. 18 The course of this disease is prolonged, 14,19 greatly impairing sleep and the patients' everyday activities and, therefore, their physical, psychological and social QoL as reflected in the various WHOQOL-BREF domains before SSNB treatment. Baums et al used the SF-36 to examine the QoL of adhesive capsulitis patients before surgical release and found that the physical component was considerably affected.…”

“…20 The DASH score confirms major functional disability caused by adhesive capsulitis in the affected shoulder as cited in the literature. 7,9,14 SSNB is one of the treatment options for adhesive capsulitis. 8,16 It was used alone in the present research, on a weekly basis, with no simultaneous physiotherapy or any other additional method.…”

Objective: To evaluate patient-reported measures of quality of life and functional capacity in adhesive capsulitis before and after suprascapular nerve block treatment; to analyze the influence of clinical and sociodemographic variables on both the outcome and correlation between the respective instruments. Method: A prospective clinical study was performed with adhesive capsulitis patients. Inclusion criteria were clinical diagnosis of adhesive capsulitis and a shoulder imaging test. The WHOQOL-BREF and DASH instruments were administered before and after treatment. A Constant test score of 55 points was used as a cutoff point for discontinuation of treatment. Mean values were compared using paired t-test and Wilcoxon. The Pearson or Spearman coefficients were used for correlation analysis. Multiple linear regression analysis was carried out using variables with p<0.20 as predictors in univariate analysis and WHOQOL domains and DASH as outcomes. The significance level was 5%. Results: Forty-three patients were evaluated. The comparison between WHOQOL-BREF and DASH mean values before and after the blocks, p<0.05. DASH correlated negatively with the physical, psychological and environmental WHOQOL-BREF domains. Older patients and those with higher levels of education influenced the improvement in patients' quality of life and functional capacity. Conclusion:The improvement of adhesive capsulitis with treatment involves an improvement in quality of life and functional capacity. The greater functional capacity of the shoulder matches a better quality of life for patients. Age and education level are the variables that most influence improvement in quality of life and functional capacity.

Key Points Question Are any treatment modalities for frozen shoulder associated with better outcomes than other treatments? Findings In this meta-analysis of 65 studies with 4097 participants, intra-articular corticosteroid was associated with increased short-term benefits compared with other nonsurgical treatments, and its superiority appeared to last for as long as 6 months. The addition of a home exercise program and/or electrotherapy or passive mobilizations may be associated with added benefits. Meaning The results of this study suggest that intra-articular corticosteroid should be offered to patients with frozen shoulder at first contact.

The best available data show that a combination of manual therapy and exercise may not be as effective as glucocorticoid injection in the short-term. It is unclear whether a combination of manual therapy, exercise and electrotherapy is an effective adjunct to glucocorticoid injection or oral NSAID. Following arthrographic joint distension with glucocorticoid and saline, manual therapy and exercise may confer effects similar to those of sham ultrasound in terms of overall pain, function and quality of life, but may provide greater patient-reported treatment success and active range of motion. High-quality RCTs are needed to establish the benefits and harms of manual therapy and exercise interventions that reflect actual practice, compared with placebo, no intervention and active interventions with evidence of benefit (e.g. glucocorticoid injection).
