Brief Summary

This study will compare shoulder range of motion assessment using the Kinect motion tracking system vs goniometer in patients with adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder) undergoing ultrasound-guided capsular distention procedures (standard of care). The investigators hypothesize that, for shoulder adhesive capsulitis, the Kinect Motion Analysis 2.0 system will provide reliable results in a shorter and more efficient amount of time in comparison to traditional goniometer methods.

Conditions

Adhesive Capsulitis; Adhesive Capsulitis of Shoulder; Frozen Shoulder; Shoulder Frozen; Shoulder Pain; Mobility Limitation

Keywords

adhesive capsulitis; frozen shoulder; shoulder pain; range of motion; capsular distention; capsular distension

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• change in shoulder range of motion

  measured in degrees (high number of degrees = better range of motion)

  12 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• PROMIS score - upper extremity

  12 weeks

• DASH score

  12 weeks

• VAS score

  12 weeks

Study Arms (1)

measurement before and after capsular distention

OTHER

Other: Kinect motion tracking system

Interventions

Kinect motion tracking system OTHER

Kinect motion tracking system is used to measure shoulder range of motion compared to goniometric measurement.

measurement before and after capsular distention

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years+
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: Yes
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

• diagnosis of limited ROM due to adhesive capsulitis
• duration of symptoms of ≥ 3 months
• persistent functional limitation (defined as either limitations occupationally, in independent activities of daily living, or activities of daily living)
• X-rays and MRI excluding alternative diagnosis
• age 18 years or older.

You may not qualify if:

• prior shoulder surgery on the affected side
• complete rotator cuff tear (based on clinical history, examination, and imaging) or planned surgical intervention on the affected side
• ipsilateral subacromial injection within the last 3 months
• autoimmune or rheumatologic disease affecting the joints
• lack of scheduled same-day physical therapy appointment
• inability to complete follow-up appointments or surveys
• inability to provide informed consent
• symptomatic glenohumeral or acromioclavicular pathology
• referred pain from the neck or internal organs
• generalized myofascial pain syndrome
