About this study

To evaluate the correlations between structure of supraspinatus tendon (impingement, tendinopathy or partial tear, as well as full thickness tear) on ultrasonography and its response to subacromial hyaluronic acid injection in rotator cuff disease patients

Read the detailed description

Objective: To evaluate the correlations between structure of supraspinatus tendon (impingement, tendinopathy or partial tear, as well as full thickness tear) on ultrasonography and its response to subacromial hyaluronic acid injection in rotator cuff disease patients and also investigate the factors associated with clinically important improvement after subdeltoid hyaluronic acid for rotator cuff disorder.

Design: Prospective, longitudinal comparison study.

Participants: Patients with rotator cuff disease

Intervention: Three subacromial injection with hyaluronic acid with 2 week-interval.

Main Outcome Measures: Visual analog scale (VAS) of the shoulder pain, Constant score, SPADI score, and angles of active shoulder range of motion (flexion, abduction, external rotation, and internal rotation) at pre-treatment, post-treatment at week 4 and post-treatment at week 12.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. constant shoulder score

    the total constant score ranges from 0 to 100 points, with higher scores indicative of better function. The score is divided into four sections: pain, activity of daily living, ROM and the total constant score ranges from 0 to 100 points, with higher scores indicative of better function. The score is divided into four sections: pain, activity of daily living, ROM and strength

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. pain intensity measured by visual analog scale

    pain intensity was measured by visual analog scale. the total score ranges from 0 to 10 points, with higher scores indicative of more painful

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 weeks

  2. Shoulder Pain And disability index

    The Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) is a self-administered questionnaire that consists of two dimensions, one for pain and the other for functional activities. The pain dimension consists of five questions regarding the severity of an individual's pain. Functional activities are assessed with eight questions designed to measure the degree of difficulty an individual has with various activities of daily living that require upper-extremity use. The SPADI takes 5 to 10 minutes for a patient to complete and is the only reliable and valid region-specific measure for the shoulder.

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 weeks

  3. glenohumeral joint range of motion

    Shoulder flexion, abduction, external rotation and internal rotation were measured with goniometer with patient in supine position

    Measured: 0, 6, 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Hyaluronic Acid in people with Rotator Cuff Impingement Syndrome, run by Taipei Veterans General Hospital, Taiwan at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jia Chi Wang, MD (886-2-28757361, jcwang0726@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

constant shoulder score (time frame: 12 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Oct 2018.
