== Clinically Relevant Anatomy<br> ==
 
Adhesive capsulitis is also known as frozen shoulder.&nbsp; It involves progressive stiffness of the glenohumeral joint.<ref name="Brue">Brue S et al. Idiopathic adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder: a review. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc. 2007. 15:1048-1054.</ref>&nbsp;&nbsp; Adhesive capsulitis can be primary when it is idiopathic or secondary when it results from a known cause or surgical event.&nbsp; <ref name="Walmsley">Walmsley S et al. Adhesive Capsulitis: Establishing Consensus on Clinical Identifiers for Stage 1 Using the Delphi Technique. Physical Therapy. September, 2009. 89(9): 906-917.</ref><br>
 
== Mechanism of Injury / Pathological Process<br> ==
 
Adhesive capsulitis has been reported to affect 2-3% of the general population and up to 30% of people with type II diabetes.&nbsp; It is more common in women aged 40-60. <ref name="Walmsley" />&nbsp; While recurrence in the same shoulder is rare, contra-lateral shoulder involvement has been estimated between 20-30%.<ref name="Brue" />&nbsp; Other identified risk factors include&nbsp; cervical disk disease, iimmobilization of the shoulder, cardiovascular disease, pulmonary disease, hyperthyroidism, and autoimmune diseases.&nbsp; <ref name="Jewell">Jewell DV et al. Interventions Associated With an Increased or Decreased Likelihood of Pain Reduction and Improved Function in Patients With Adhesive Capsulitis: A Retrospective Cohort Study. Physical Therapy. May, 2009. 89(5): 419-428.</ref><br>
 
== Clinical Presentation  ==
 
Patients may report progressive difficulty with dressing, grooming, and performing overhead activities. Literature describes adhesive capsulitis occuring in three overlapping phases.&nbsp; The first phase, the painful stage, involves painful shoulder motion and sleep being interrupted.&nbsp; The second state, the frozen or adhesive stage,&nbsp; is characterized by reduced pain and loss of joint motion.&nbsp; During the third stage, the resolution or thawing stage, pain is resolved and motion is gradually returned.&nbsp; <ref name="Jewell" /><ref name="Walmsley" />&nbsp; Adhesive capsulitis is thought to be self-limiting with the average recovery taking 3 years, though some authors report 50% of patients have pain or stiffness at 7 years. <ref name="Brue" /><br>
 
== Diagnostic Procedures  ==
 
Though there is no valid clinical diagnostic criteria for adhesive capsulitis, a recent study gathered the opinions of 70 experts in adhesive capsulitis. They came to the following conensus on characteristics of people with adhesive capsulitis.
 
*night pain
*increase pain with rapid or unguarded movement
*pain is aggravated by movement
*increased discomfort lying on affected side
*global loss of active and passive motion
*pain at end range in all directions
*generally age of onset is &gt;35 years old.&nbsp;&nbsp;<ref name="Walmsley" />
 
<br>
 
In addition, if radiographs are taken, they are typically normal.&nbsp; <ref name="Brue" />
 
== Outcome Measures  ==
 
DASH (see [[Outcome Measures|Outcome Measures Database]])
 
== Management / Interventions<br> ==
 
Research has shown that joint mobilization and exercise increases the likelihood of successful outcomes.&nbsp; Passive range of motion improved with Matiland grade III or IV mobilizations and posteriorly directed Kaltenborn grade III mobilizations.&nbsp; Two pairs of interventions:&nbsp; iontophoresis and phonophoresis and ultrasound and massage, decreased the likelihood of significant improvement by 19-32%.&nbsp; <ref name="Jewell" /><br>
 
Intraarticular corticosteroid injections are another treatment option.&nbsp; Random, controlled studies show injections with an exercise program improved pain and function scores at 2 weeks, but no difference at 12 weeks.&nbsp; Therefore, cotricosteroids help initially with pain and function during the first few weeks, but not in the long term.&nbsp; <ref name="Bal">Bal A et al. Effectiveness of Corticosteroid Injection in Adhesive Capsulitis. Clinical Rehabiliation. 2008; 22:503-512.</ref>
 
Baums et al analyzed 30 patient who had not improved with 6 months of conservative treatment.&nbsp; Following arthroscopic release, patients demonstrated improved range of motion, functional scores, and decreased pain.&nbsp; <ref name="Baums">Baums MH et al. Functional Outcome and General Health Status in Patients after Arthroscopic Release in Adhesive Capsulitis. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc. 2007; 15:638-644.</ref>
 
== Differential Diagnosis<br> ==
 
Differenctial diagnoses include rotator cuff tear, rotator cuff impingment, OA.&nbsp; <br>
