Prevalence of Adhesive Capsulitis in Diabetic Patients in a Tertiary Care Centre – An Observational Study
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 12
Abstract
Introduction: Adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder) is a clinical condition characterized by painful, restricted range of motion of the shoulder. It is more common in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. We aim to study the prevalence of adhesive capsulitis in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients and to study its relationship with age, gender, duration of diabetes, glycaemic control and BMI. Methods: An observational study was done in 300 patients with type 2 DM. Patients with shoulder pain and restricted active and passive shoulder joint movements were diagnosed as having frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis).The data were statistically analysed. Results: Adhesive capsulitis was present in 32.3% of patients with type 2 diabetes. It was also found that there was a statistically significant association between occurrence of adhesive capsulitis and increasing age, duration of diabetes and poor glycaemic status. Conclusion: Adhesive capsulitis was seen to be the most commonly prevalent musculoskeletal disorder among patients with type 2 diabetes. Its occurrence was found to be more prevalent with increasing age, greater duration of diabetes and poorly controlled glycaemic status.
