Brief Summary

This study on frozen shoulder addressed the null hypothesis that there is no difference in the motion of scapula against the thoracic wall between affected and non-affected shoulder.

Conditions

Frozen Shoulder

Keywords

Frozen shoulder; scapulothoracic angle; scapulohumeral angle; acromiohumeral distance; center equator distance; shoulder radiography

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Radiographic parameter (scapulothoracic angle) measured in angle

  one year

Other Outcomes (3)

• Center equator distance

  one year

• Scapulohumeral angle

  one year

• Acromiohumeral distance

  one year

Study Arms (1)

shoulder radiography

OTHER

Bilateral shoulder AP standard plain x-ray in 0 and 90 degrees of arm abduction. Non-affected shoulder is used to be compared with the affected shoulder.

Radiation: Bilateral shoulder anteroposterior radiography

Interventions

Bilateral shoulder anteroposterior radiography RADIATION

1. Patient standing with the tube in front and 105 cm far from the shoulder radiating perpendicular to the cassette in the back, both arms hanging aside the trunk in 0 degrees of arm abduction, 0 degrees of rotation and 0 degrees of extension with the thumb facing forward to obtain true bilateral shoulder anteroposterior view. Voltage and exposure time differs regarding each person's body mass. 2. In the same position, the patient only elevates the arm up to 90 degrees of abduction.

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 40 Years+
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

• adult patients with unilateral shoulder pain lasted for more than one month, accompanied by passive and active limitation of range of motion in all directions

You may not qualify if:

• bilateral involvement, history of trauma, history of surgery on the affected shoulder, history of fracture, shoulder osteoarthritis, symptoms less than one month and any signs of rotator cuff tear. MRI will be done to rull out the rotator cuff tear.
