Abstract

Objectives: To report change in pain of shoulder joint after ultrasound guided capsular hydrodilatation with corticosteriod injection.

Study design: Retrospective study

Setting: Chophraya Yommarat Hospital, Suphanburi

Subjects:  Patients with a diagnosis of adhesive capsulitis who had pre-treatment subjective numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) at least 4 after physical therapy for at least a month; treated with an ultrasound guided capsular hydrodilatation with a mixture of 4 ml 10mg/mL triamcinolone acetonide, 6ml of 1% lidocaine, and 10 mL of normal saline by a physiatrist; and having at least 3 follow-up re-assessments, were recruited into the study.

Methods: Twenty patients’ medical records were retrospectively reviewed. Outcome measurement was the treated shoulder NPRS at weeks 1, 5, and 12-14 post-treatment; and the data were compared and analyzed by using the linear mixed model.

Results: There were statistically significant improvements in median (minimum, maximum) NPRS (p<0.001) from baseline 6 (4, 7) to 2 (0, 5) at week 1, 1 (0, 5) at week 5 and 0.5 (0, 3) at week 12-14 post treatment. No side effects were found.

Conclusion: This retrospective study demonstrated that the ultrasound guided capsular hydrodilatation with a mixture of normal saline, lidocaine and triamcinolone acetonide, injection done by a trained physiatrist could reduce shoulder pain in patients with adhesive capsulitis.
