Abstract

Background/aim: To compare the efficacy of suprascapular nerve block[SSNB]and physical therapy (PT) in patients with shoulder pain.Materials and methods: 60 patients with shoulder pain of at least one monthduration were included. Patients with positive provocative tests ( Neerimpingement sign, Hawkins test, Jobe Test, and painful arc test) were evaluatedwith shoulder ultrasound imaging. The patients were randomized in twogroups. First group received PT composed of therapeutic ultrasound (US) andtranscutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS). Second group received SSNBunder the guidance of anatomic landmarks. Exercises were prescribed to bothgroups.Pain was evaluated by visual analog scale. For functional evaluation, Constant –Murley scoring were performed. Treatment outcomes were compared withinand between groups at first and third months.Results: Visual analog scale scores and activities of daily living, active range ofmotion and pain scores of Constant Murley scoring significantly improved inboth groups. Improvement in activities of daily living was greater in PT group.Conclusion: Both suprascapular nerve block and physical therapy in addition toexercises have produced comparable relief of pain and improvement inmovement in shoulder pain. Improvement in activities of daily living wasgreater in the physical therapy group.

Özet

Amaç:Omuz ağrılı hastalarda supraskapular sinir bloğu ve fizik tedavi ajanlarının etkinliğini karşılaştırmak amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve yöntem: En az bir ay süreli omuz ağrısı olan 60 hasta çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Provakatif testleri (Neer impingement bulgusu, Hawkins test, Jobe Test ve ağrılı ark testi) pozitif olan hastalar omuz ultrasonu ile değerlendirilmiştir. Hastalar iki, gruba randomize edilmiştir. İlk grup 10 seans terapötik ultrason ve transkutanöz elektriksel sinir stimülasyonu(TENS)’i içeren fizik tedavi ajanlarıyla tedaviye alınmıştır. İkinci gruba anatomik işaretleme ile supraskapular sinir bloğu uygulanmıştır. Her iki grupta da standard ev egzersiz programı tedaviye eklenmiştir. Ağrı Görsel analog skala ile değerlendirilmiştir. Tedavi sonuçlarını değerlendirmede Constant Murley skorlamasının ağrı, günlük yaşam aktivitesi ve aktif omuz eklem hareket açıklığı parametreleri kullanılmıştır.Birnci ve üçüncü ay tedavi sonuçları grup içi ve gruplararası karşılaştırılmıştır. Bulgular: Görsel analog skala ile değerlendirilen ağrı, ve Constant Murley skorlamasının ağrı, günlük yaşam aktivitesi ve aktif omuz eklem hareket açıklığı parametreleri her iki grupta da düzelme göstermiştir. Günlük yaşam aktivitelerindeki düzelme fizik tedavi grubunda daha fazladır. Sonuç: Ağrılı omuzda egzersiz ile birlikte uygulanan supraskapular sinir blokajı(SSNB) ve terapötik ultrason ve transkutanöz elektriksel sinir stimülasyonunu(TENS) içeren fizik tedavi ajanları ağrıda azalma ve eklem hareketinde benzer düzelme sağlamıştır. Fizik tedavi grubunda günlük yaşam aktivitelerindeki düzelme daha fazladır.
