Brief summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effect of listening to music during the treatment of frozen shoulder on pain, normal range of motion, functional activity status and quality of life.Upon recruitment, the subjects were randomly assigned to one of four treatment groups: Group 1 received Music + Mobilization + Exercise, Group 2 received Music + Exercise, Group 3 received Mobilization + Exercise, and Group 4 received Exercise only.
Detailed description
Forty individuals diagnosed with frozen shoulder were randomly allocated into four distinct treatment groups. Each participant received a total of eighteen treatment sessions, administered three days per week. Pain levels, range of motion of the shoulder joint, functional status, general health condition, and quality of life were measured and recorded for each participant both before and after the treatment.
Interventions
OTHERTENS
The TENS treatment was conducted using a double-channel TENS device equipped with four electrodes. The electrodes were placed around the painful area to ensure targeted stimulation. Each session lasted for 30 minutes, during which the TENS device operated at a high frequency range of 60-120 Hz. To achieve the desired analgesic effect, a short transition time of 20-120 microseconds was employed.
OTHER432 Hertz frequency music
432 Hertz frequency music was played to patients through headphones during hotpack and TENS applications.
OTHERMobilization
Electrophysiological agents were administered to the affected shoulder joint area before initiating mobilization. The Cyriax mobilization techniques targeted the scapula, clavicular, and GH joints, considering their biomechanical interaction and the specific dysfunction of each patient.
OTHERExercises
The combined utilization of exercises targeting the glenohumeral (GH) joint, scapulothoracic (ST) region, and stretching has demonstrated significant effectiveness in ameliorating range of motion and alleviating pain during the treatment of Frozen Shoulder (FS). These exercises were closely supervised and administered by the physiotherapist in each session. Furthermore, a home exercise program was provided to the patients, consisting of exercises for posture, thera band, and finger ladder. They were instructed to perform 10-15 repetitions of these exercises twice a day independently.
OTHERHotpack
Each group of patients received a 20-minute hot pack application to the scapula and shoulder circumference.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Goniometer | baseline and 6 weeks | A goniometer was used to measure the participants' shoulder range of motion. |
| Visual Analog Scale | baseline and 6 weeks | The Visual Analog Scale is a psychometric response scale used to measure subjective characteristics or attitudes, and it has been utilized to assess the pain levels of participants.10-cm visual analog scale, ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (the worst imaginable pain). |
| Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand | baseline and 6 weeks | I used this scale to evaluate the participants' upper extremity functions.The questionnaire consists of 30 items that cover various activities related to daily living, work, and recreational activities that involve the use of the upper extremities. Participants rate their ability to perform each activity and the severity of their symptoms on a scale from 1 to 5, where 1 represents no difficulty or no symptoms and 5 represents unable to do or extremely severe symptoms.A high score means that the patient's condition is poor. |
| Modified Constant Score | baseline and 6 weeks | The questionnaire used to measure muscle strength was applied because the participants had shoulder joint range of motion less than 90 degrees before treatment.The Modified Constant Score typically evaluates four main components: Pain ( 0 being no pain and 15 being severe pain),Activities of Daily Living (20 points: This section assesses the patient's ability to perform various activities using the affected shoulder, such as combing hair, putting on a coat, and reaching behind the back), Strength ( The examiner rates the strength on a scale from 0 to 25), Range of Motion (40 points). The total Modified Constant Score is the sum of the points obtained in each of these four components, resulting in a maximum score of 100. Higher scores indicate better shoulder function and range of motion. |
| 36-Item Short Form Health Survey | baseline and 6 weeks | Anket used to assess the overall health status of the participants is the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey or SF-36.The SF-36 consists of 36 questions that cover eight health domains: Physical Functioning, Role Limitations due to Physical Health Problems,Bodily Pain,General Health,Vitality, Social Functioning,Role Limitations due to Emotional Problems, Mental Health. Each domain is assessed through multiple questions, and the responses are scored and transformed to create summary scores for each domain. These summary scores can range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better health-related quality of life. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| BMI(Basal Mass Index) | baseline and 6 weeks | BMI is a measure that assesses the relationship between a participants weight and height. BMI is calculated using weight in kilograms and height in meters. The formula for calculating BMI is as follows: BMI = Weight (kg) / (Height)\^2 (m\^2) |
