“…It contains 11 items, which are measured in a five-point Likert scale and summarized into a total score from 0 ‘no disability’ to 100 ‘most severe disability. The Quick-DASH has adequate reliability, validity, and the ability to measure changes in disability among people with shoulder problems [ 28 ].…”

Introduction Frozen shoulder is a very common musculoskeletal condition and the evidence related to the additional effects of extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) with intra-articular (IA) lidocaine injection in individuals with frozen shoulder is rare. Therefore, this study aims to compare and investigate the additional effects of extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) with intra-articular (IA) lidocaine injection in a frozen shoulder. Methods Sixty eligible participants with frozen shoulder were included and the active group ( n = 30, age 52.12 ± 5.2 years) received a lidocaine injection (1% lidocaine (Xylocaine) and 2cc (80 mg) methylprednisolone acetate) with active ESWT (3.5 bar air pressure and 2000 pulses with an energy flux density (EFD) ¼ 0.16 mJ/mm 2 ) three sessions a week for 4 weeks. The placebo group ( n = 30, age 53.56 ± 5.5 years) received lidocaine injection with placebo treatment (a special head that blocked the shock waves) three sessions a week for 4 weeks. Both groups received progressive resistance exercises (PRE) to the shoulder muscles. The primary outcome was pain intensity, measured with the visual analogue scale. The other outcome measures were the thickness of the coracohumeral ligament (CHL) measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), abduction, and lateral rotation range of motion (ROM), functional disability, kinesiophobia, depression status, and quality of life. Participants were assessed at baseline, after 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and at 6-month follow-up. Results The post-intervention at 4 weeks showed an improvement of 2.0 (CI 95% 1.71–2.28) in the active group compared to the placebo group. Similar effects were noted after 8 weeks (2.2) (CI 95% 1.91–2.48) and at the 6-month (1.9) (CI 95% 1.61–2.18) follow-up. Similar improvements were also found in the thickness of the CHL ligament (0.6) (CI 95% 0.46–0.73), abduction and lateral rotation (ROM) (– 23.6) (CI 95% – 27.47 to -19.72), (- 18.10) (CI 95% – 19.72 to – 16.47), functional disability (16.2) (CI 95% 14.85–17.54), kinesiophobia (11.0 (CI 95% 10.21–11.98), depression status (4.4) (CI 95% 4.03–4.76) and quality of life (0.9) (CI 95% 0.79–1.00) ( p = 0.001) at the 6-month follow-up period, where mean estimates and their confidence intervals all included worthwhile effects. There were no adverse reactions or side effects noted in either the active or placebo groups during and after the treatment. Conclusions The study concluded that the addition of extracorporeal shockwave therapy after intra-articular lidocaine injection improves pain, functional disability, range of motion, kinesiophobia, depression status, and quality of life in people with frozen shoulder.

“…Participants in the current study received physical therapy treatments between the two testing sessions and the type and details of the physical therapy interventions were solely determined by the treating therapist. At both testing sessions, participants were asked to complete the Arabic Quick-DASH [ 12 ], Numeric Pain Rating Scale [ 21 ] Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand [ 22 ], and Global Assessment of Function [ 12 , 23 ]. The Global Rating of Change Scale [ 24 , 25 ] was also completed by all participants in the follow-up testing session.…”

“…The total score was computed by transforming the mean items score to a scale from 0 to 100, where 0 indicates the best upper extremity function and no symptoms.

This study aimed to examine the responsiveness of the Arabic Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand short version (Quick-DASH) in patients with upper extremity musculoskeletal disorders. Participants with upper extremity musculoskeletal disorders (N = 88) under physical therapy care were assessed at initial visit and later at a follow-up visit, and they completed the Arabic Quick-DASH, DASH, Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), Global Assessment of Function (GAF), and the Global Rating of Change Scale (GRC). Responsiveness of the Arabic Quick-DASH was assessed by examining six pre-defined hypotheses. Consistent with the pre-defined hypotheses, the Arabic Quick-DASH changes scores exhibited significant positive correlation with the change in DASH (r = 0.98), GAF (r = 0.67), NPRS (r = 0.72), and the GRC (r = 0.78). As hypothesized, the Arabic Quick-DASH showed a large effect size above the pre-determined level (ES = 1.61, SRM = 1.49) in patients who reported improved upper extremity function. The Arabic Quick-DASH change score discriminated between patients who reported improvement versus no improvement in upper extremity function (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve = 0.90). The results supported 100% (six out of six) of the pre-defined hypotheses. The Arabic Quick-DASH demonstrated sufficient responsiveness where all the pre-defined hypotheses were supported, leading to the established validity of the Arabic Quick-DASH change score as a measure of change in upper extremity function and symptoms. The minimal importance change in the Arabic Quick-DASH needs to be determined in future studies.

Resumen Objetivo El propósito de este artículo fue evaluar la confiabilidad, el error de medición, la validez de construcción y la respuesta de la versión española del QuickDASH para la evaluación de resultados en el síndrome del túnel carpiano (STC). Métodos Una población total de 40 pacientes con diagnóstico de STC completó las versiones en español del QuickDASH, CTS-AL y EQ-5D una semana antes de la cirugía, el día previo a la cirugía y tres meses después de la intervención. La consistencia interna fue analizada mediante el coeficiente α de Cronbach. Para evaluar la concordancia absoluta se utilizaron el coeficiente de correlación intraclase (ICC2,1), el coeficiente de correlación de Lin (CCC) y el límite de acuerdo de Bland y Altman (LoA), mientras que el método no paramétrico de Passing-Bablok (P-B) se empleó para evaluar el sesgo sistemático constante y/o proporcional entre las mediciones. La precisión transversal se analizó con el error estándar de medición (SEM). La precisión longitudinal para el coeficiente de fiabilidad test-retest se analizó con el error estándar de la diferencia de medición (SEMdiff) y el cambio mínimo detectable al 90 % (MDC90) y al 95 % (MDC95) de nivel de confianza. Para evaluar la validez de construcción, se formuló la hipótesis de que el QuickDASH tendría una fuerte correlación positiva con el CTS-AL y una correlación negativa moderada con el índice EQ-5D, utilizando el coeficiente de correlación de Pearson (r) con un nivel de significancia de 0.05. Resultados El coeficiente de Cronbach fue de 0.912. ICC2,1 y CCC mostraron una concordancia absoluta alta (0.868 y 0.738 respectivamente). La regresión P-B no mostró diferencias constantes y proporcionales significativas entre las dos administraciones del QuickDASH. El QuickDASH mostró una respuesta (ES = 2.1; SRM = 1.97) inferior al CTS-AL (ES = 3.53; SRM = 3.50) y superior al índice EQ-5D (ES = 0.78; SRM = 0.83). Conclusión La versión española (España) del instrumento QuickDASH presentó buen nivel de confiabilidad, validez de construcción y respuesta para la evaluación de resultados en STC.
