Brief Summary:
This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) and suprascapular nerve block (SSNB) with conventional treatment for hemiplegic shoulder pain. A total of 67 patients aged 45-70 years, treated at the Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation at Başakşehir Çam and Sakura City Hospital between April 1, 2023, and January 1, 2024, were randomly assigned to three groups. The first group (n=24) received conventional treatment, the second group (n=22) received conventional treatment plus one session of ultrasound-guided suprascapular nerve block, and the third group (n=21) received conventional treatment plus ESWT applied for 2 weeks, 4 days per week at 12 Hz and 2-3 bars. All groups were evaluated clinically and ultrasonographically before treatment, at 1 month, and at 3 months. Pain intensity was assessed using the visual analog scale, upper extremity motor function with the Fugl-Meyer Motor Scale, and supraspinatus muscle tear size via ultrasound.
Detailed Description:
This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) and suprascapular nerve block (SSNB) when added to conventional treatment in patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain.
A total of 67 patients aged 45 to 70 years who were treated at the Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation at Başakşehir Çam and Sakura City Hospital between April 1, 2023, and January 1, 2024, were included in the study. Participants were randomly assigned into three groups. The first group (n = 24) received conventional treatment alone. The second group (n = 22) received conventional treatment combined with a single session of ultrasound-guided suprascapular nerve block (SSNB). The third group (n = 21) received conventional treatment combined with extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), applied for two weeks, four days per week, at a frequency of 12 Hz and an intensity of 2 to 3 bars.
All participants were evaluated clinically and ultrasonographically at baseline, at one month, and at three months. Pain intensity was assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Upper extremity motor function was evaluated using the Fugl-Meyer Motor Scale (FMMS). Supraspinatus muscle tear size was measured using ultrasonography.
