EFFECTIVENESS OF TRANSCUTANEOUS ELECTRICAL NERVE STIMULATION AND INTERFERENTIAL ELECTROTHERAPY IN ADHESIVE CAPSULITIS
Journal Title: International Journal of Orthopaedics Traumatology & Surgical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
A total of 50 subjects were randomly allocated to receive (i) trancutaneous electrical nerve stimulation(n=25) (ii) interferentialelectrotherapy (n=25) . Subjects in groups (i) and (ii) received 10 sessions of therespective treatment. Each subject's score on Range of Motion,Constant Murley Assessment and visualanalogue scale were recorded at baseline, posttreatmentsession and subsequentfollowupsessions. Inboth the trancutaneous electrical nerve stimulation and interferential electrotherapy groups, the Range ofMotion , Constant Murley Assessment score increased and the visual analogue scale score decreasedsignificantly (both p < 0.0001), and significant difference was found between the 2 intervention groups(all p < 0.05). The observed improvement was well maintained in both intervention groups at least until the6monthfollowupsession. Both trancutaneous electrical nerve stimulation or interferential electrotherapyare effective in treating frozen shoulder patients. Interferential therapy is more effective in reducing painintensity and restoring shoulder function for people with adhesive capsulitis.
