Outcomes of Treatment Using the ERMI Shoulder Flexionater®

Обзор

Study 1 - Adhesive Capsulitis Study - 110 patients The purpose of this study is to compare treatment of patients with symptoms of adhesive capsulitis, primary and secondary, between three groups: I) Physical Therapy alone; II) ERMI Shoulder Flexionater® alone; III) PT + Device. Study 2 - Postoperative Shoulder Stiffness Study - 90 patients The purpose of this study is to compare treatment of patients with post-operative stiffness indicative of secondary adhesive capsulitis between three groups: I) Physical Therapy alone; II) ERMI Shoulder Flexionater® alone; III) PT + Device. Study 3 - Stiffness after MUA Study - enroll all eligible patients (goal of at least 15) The purpose of this study is to compare treatment of patients who have undergone manipulation under anesthesia or lysis of adhesions between three groups: I) Physical Therapy alone; II) ERMI Shoulder Flexionater® alone; III) PT + Device.
