Conditions

Adhesive Capsulitis of the Shoulder

Keywords

adhesive capsulitis, rehabilitation, robotic training

Brief summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of robotic training compared to conventional rehabilitation in patients with AC.

Detailed description

Nowadays, rehabilitation focuses on functional work during physiotherapy sessions to improve the patient's autonomy. In the era of new technologies, robotics and virtual reality have shown great interest in functional rehabilitation and cortical reorganization.

Interventions

continuous passive mobilization and robotic therapy on armeo sping

OTHERconventionnal rehabilitation

rehabilitation sessions with a physiotherapist

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
shoulder fonction using Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI)at 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 monthsIt is a self-written questionnaire. It consists of twosubscales. The first assesses the importance of pain felt on five items. Pain scores range from 0 to 50. The second evaluates the difficulty of activities of daily living based on eight. Scores range from 0 to 80.questions

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
pain using a visual analogue scaleat 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 monthsIt is a 100mm ruler that allows patients to rank their pain on a continuum from no pain to extreme pain. The patient places the indicator on a level that represents their current pain.
Active and passive range of motionat 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 monthsActive and passive range of motion is clinically assessed using a goniometer while standing. We measured abduction, extension and external rotation.
