Official title
Effect of Scapular Mobilization With Arm Movement on Shoulder Pain and Range of Motion and Disability in Older Adults With Adhesive Capsulitis.
Overview
50 patients with shoulder adhesive capsulitis were admitted. the patients will receive scapular mobilization (downward or upward mobilization) associated with arm movements. The percentage of improvement in shoulder ROM of flexion, abduction, and external rotation; and decrease in shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI).
Interventions
- Other Scapular mobilization with movement
The treatment consisted of scapular mobilization with arm movement in all directions for 15 min/session for 3 sessions/week for 4 weeks. Scapular mobilization included scapular upward glide and downward glid. Scapular upward glide was performed with shoulder adduction and extension, while scapular downward glide was performed with shoulder abduction and flexion.
Primary outcome measures
- Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) [Time frame: 3 months]
- Shoulder range of motion of flexion, abduction, and external rotation [Time frame: 3 months]
- Scapular dyskinesis [Time frame: 3 months]
- Electromyography [Time frame: 3 months]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
- The existence of unilateral adhesive capsulitis (stage II) with incapability of the participant to raise the arm more than 100 degrees in the plane of the scapula
Exclusion criteria
- The presence of any shoulder problem contraindicated for performing exercises to the shoulder joint, such as active inflammatory disease, cancer, active infection, recent subluxations or dislocations, fractures, and surgeries near the shoulder region.
