Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Constant-Murley Score (CMS)
The Constant-Mulery score mainly includes 8 aspects related to your shoulder in the past 4 weeks. The proportion of subjective and objective components in the Constant-Mulery score is 35 points/65 points. A total of 100 points.The subjective part of the score includes the score of pain degree and the score of impact on daily life. 35 points in total.The objective part of the score includes the score of shoulder range of motion and strength. 65 points in total.
6months after intervention
Secondary Outcomes (8)

Study Arms (2)
manipulation under anesthesia group
EXPERIMENTALThe patient underwent manipulation under anesthesia
Supervised home rehabilitation group
ACTIVE COMPARATORThe patient underwent supervised home rehabilitation
Interventions
After the anesthesia took effect, the patient was placed in the supine position, and the experienced surgeon stood at the head of the bed to release the affected limb by four angles of forward flexion, abduction, external rotation and internal rotation. After the operation is completed, 1ml de Bosson (MSD) +2.5ml sodium hyaluronate (Biochemical Industries Co., LTD.) is injected once.
The doctor instructs the patient in exercise training at the outpatient clinic. At each clinic visit, the doctor will guide the different stages of the movement. At the first visit, the doctor guides the patient through the first phase of the rehabilitation program to improve the patient's basic mobility. At the first month of follow-up, the second phase of rehabilitation program was guided, and the recovery of mobility was accompanied by muscle training, including wall climbing and muscle resistance exercises. 1ml Debossone (MSD) +2.5ml sodium hyaluronate (Biochemical Industries Co., LTD.) was injected once at the clinic. All the training required patients to do their best at home to complete 3 sets of 5 each. At the end of each day, the patient will upload a video to the platform, and the doctor will evaluate whether the patient's recovery is in place.
