University of Maryland, Baltimore
The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility, usability and preliminary efficacy of a home-based Functional Electrical Stimulation(FES) in individuals with shoulder adhesive capsulitis. The main question it aims to answer is if combining home-based FES to usual therapy at the clinic will improve pain and improve function of the impaired shoulder.
Individuals with shoulder adhesive capsulitis will be recruited. All participants will complete clinical assessments at 3 time points(baseline, 2 weeks into the intervention and 4 weeks after). Each participant will be asked to complete either one 60min or 2x30 min duration of FES daily for 4 weeks. The following assessments will be performed:Likert rating scales and open-ended questions,The Disabilities the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) questionnaire,Active and passive shoulder range of motion (ROM) will be assessed using goniometric measurements for shoulder flexion, abduction, and externa…

Participants diagnosed with shoulder adhesive capsulitis and being treated at a local physical and occupational therapy outpatient clinic will be deemed eligible for inclusion in the study.The intervention will include home use of Genesis Flex FES device alongside usual rehabilitation care. Usual care therapy may consist of manual therapy, hot packs, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, ultrasound treatments, daily home-based shoulder exercises, and/or acetaminophen for pain, which will be documented.
