“…No new study investigating the same parameters was identified in the current review. The 3 new studies deemed to be of low risk of bias in the current review tentatively support the use of manual therapy and stretching in the more stiff than painful stage of the condition (15,28,31). However, small sample sizes, uncertainty over clinically important differences, no differences for certain outcome measures, and potential cost vs benefit of the interventions challenges the certainty of any recommendations regarding manual therapy in the management of FS.…”

“…Ibrahim et al (31) compared the effectiveness of a multi-modal treatment programme consisting of heat packs, therapy to facilitate muscle relaxation and glenohumeral mobilizations (inferior glides, longitudinal caudad) for 2 min, using large-amplitude oscillations and repeated 3 times in a 10-min session (n = 30) and a static progressive stretch device with the multi-modal programme alone (n = 30). Both groups received treat ment 3 times a week for 4 weeks and participants were also provided with a home exercise programme.…”

Frozen shoulder commonly affects people aged around 50 years and is associated with substantial levels of shoulder pain and stiffness that may last for many years. Many people with frozen shoulder report that simple activities, such as dressing, and washing or drying their hair, become almost impossible. The condition may adversely affect the ability to work and frequently causes severe interruptions to sleep. The reasons why up to 5% of the population develop frozen shoulder are unknown. Many treatments, often lacking sound research evidence, have been recommended. Inappropriate treatment may not resolve the symptoms, may be associated with unnecessary expense, and may even cause harm. We have updated a review of the available literature to synthesize the findings of the available research so that we can make recommendations for the best current treatment alternatives to help people with frozen shoulder and for future research. Objective: To update an existing systematic review of randomized clinical trials evaluating the clinical effectiveness of non-surgical management interventions for people with primary frozen shoulder in terms of pain, movement, self-reported function and disability, quality of life, recovery time, return to work and recreation, and adverse events. Data sources: Cochrane CENTRAL, SCI and MEDLINE, CENTRAL between 1 January 2010 and June 2017, plus reference lists of included trials and trial registers. Abstracts were independently screened by 2 reviewers and discussed. Data extraction: Two reviewers evaluated eligibility. Data were extracted by one reviewer and checked by another. Two reviewers evaluated risk of bias. Metaanalyses were not appropriate. Narrative analyses were performed for trials evaluated as low risk of bias. Results: Thirty trials were included, with the majority of studies evaluated as being at high risk of potential bias. Only 4 trials were evaluated as being at low risk of bias and this, plus the variety of participants included/excluded in trials and the variety of methods, interventions and outcomes used across the trials provided limited new evidence to inform the non-surgical management and treatment of people with frozen shoulder. Conclusion: Substantial evidence gaps remain for the non-surgical treatment of people with frozen shoulder.

“…Die Unabhängig vom Schmerz ist jedoch auch die reine Gelenkkontraktur zu beachten, also die Verkürzung des Bindegewebes. Dies zeigte die Studie von Ibrahim et al [27], in der 60 Patienten mit Frozen Shoulder die "traditionelle Physiotherapie" erhielten. Eine Gruppe bekam zusätzlich eine Schienenbehandlung.…”

“…Eine Gruppe bekam zusätzlich eine Schienenbehandlung. Beide Gruppen erzielten die gleiche Schmerzabnahme, doch die Interventionsgruppe erreichte eine signifikante Verbesserung der Beweglichkeit [27]. Die Schienenbehandlung schien folglich gezielt auf die Gelenkkontraktur zu wirken.…”

ZusammenfassungPassive Mobilisation wirkt allgemein schmerzlindernd und kann daher auch bei schmerzhaften Bewegungseinschränkungen der Frozen Shoulder effektiv sein. Die schwache bis moderate Evidenz in der Literatur ist diesbezüglich unklar. Bei der im Krankheitsverlauf der Frozen Shoulder entstehenden bindegewebigen Gelenkkontraktur ist die manuelle Mobilisation unwirksam.Der vorliegende Beitrag erläutert anhand einer narrativen Literaturanalyse die Ursachen einer bindegewebigen Gelenkkontraktur und stellt Behandlungsmöglichkeiten vor. Die tägliche stundenlange Behandlungsdauer scheint hierbei eine entscheidende Rolle zu spielen. Einige Studien erreichten dies mit der Schienenbehandlung. Die praktikable Alternative der Lagerung wird als Teil eines Behandlungsprogramms bei bindegewebigen Gelenkkontrakturen vorgestellt.

There was high-quality evidence that stretch did not have clinically important effects on joint mobility in people with or without neurological conditions if performed for less than seven months. Sensitivity analyses indicate results were robust in studies at risk of selection and detection biases in comparison to studies at low risk of bias. Sub-group analyses also suggest the effect of stretch is consistent in people with different types of neurological or non-neurological conditions. The effects of stretch performed for periods longer than seven months have not been investigated. There was moderate- and high-quality evidence that stretch did not have clinically important short-term effects on quality of life or pain in people with non-neurological conditions, respectively. The short-term effects of stretch on quality of life and pain in people with neurological conditions, and the short-term effects of stretch on activity limitations and participation restrictions for people with and without neurological conditions are uncertain.
