This loss of function can have a severe impact on the patient's activities, participation and overall quality of life.\n\nThe use of ultrasound-guided (USG) suprascapular nerve blocks (SSNB) and/or intra-articular corticoid injections (IACI) has been supported by many studies. However, double blinded randomized clinical trials using a combination of SSNB and IACI are rare.\n\nThe primary objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of a glenohumeral IACI combined with a SSNB, compared to a glenohumeral IACI combined with a sham SSNB. Outcome measures of interest are shoulder-related disability reported by the patients, shoulder pain and shoulder stiffness. These outcome parameters will be compared between both treatment arms with an intention-to-treat analysis.\n\nAs key secondary objectives, the investigators aim to identify which physical examination tests, or combinations of those, are correlated with MRI diagnostic criteria and favor a more positive evolution. Finally, through predictive analysis the investigators will try to establish which patients benefit the most from the combined SSNB + IACI.", "detailedDescription"=>"Frozen Shoulder (FS) is common disease affecting 2 to 5% of the general population, with a higher prevalence in patients suffering from diabetes and thyroid dysfunction.It remains frustrating for patients and treating health care professionals as severe shoulder pain and loss of function can last for up to two years. 5-7 In the early stage, most patients identify the following symptoms: strong component of night pain, pain with rapid or unguarded movements and aggravated by movement or lying on the affected shoulder.8 Combined with marked pain and limitation in all directions of shoulder range of motion, it is easy to understand that suffering from Frozen Shoulder will have a detrimental effect on quality of life and the ability to perform activities of daily living.\n\nThe overall treatment aim for this condition is to \"improve pain and function\" and treatment goals should be set individually in a shared decision-making process. Patient education on the clinical course and different possible therapeutic interventions, including self-management strategies, should always come first. Clinicians should promote activity modification to utilize pain-free, functional ROM and stretching of the shoulder capsule matching the patient's current level of irritability.\n\nIntra-articular corticosteroid injections (IACI) into the gleno-humeral (GH) joint, combined with shoulder mobility and stretching exercises, have shown to be more effective in providing short-term (4-6weeks) pain relief and improved function compared to exercises alone.\n\nA recent article by Rex et al. places the results of the UK FROST trial in the context of 8 other randomized controlled trials comparing intra-articular corticoid injections (IACI) to manipulation under anesthesia (MUA), arthroscopic capsular release (ACR) and hydrodilatation. These findings did not show clinical superiority of either IACI, MUA nor ACR and evidence for hydrodilatation was inconclusive.\n\nCommon sense, in accordance with the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines, recommends that treatments should be offered in a stepped approach from least to most invasive. In their systematic review from 2020, Challoumas et al. show that in the early phase of Frozen Shoulder IA corticosteroid is associated with better short-term outcomes, with possible benefits extending in the mid-terms. These authors recommend to associate IACI to education for home-based exercises and physiotherapy to increase the chances of resolution of symptoms by 6 months.\n\nUnfortunately, not all patients show sufficient improvement in pain and function with IACI and need other therapies. The suprascapular nerve (SSN) provides 60 tot 70% of sensory innervation of the shoulder and suprascapular nerve block (SSNB) has shown in meta-analysis to significantly improve pain and ROM in patients with Frozen Shoulder. This systematic review however has several limitations. Blinding was not always sufficient to rule out a placebo effect, different injections techniques and products (local anesthetics with or without corticosteroids) were used and only data for pain and ROM shoulder could be aggregated as shoulder function was not evaluated in enough trials.\n\nIn a rigorous triple blinded RCT, we demonstrated that three successive SSNB with local anesthetics did not improve shoulder pain and function more than three sham injections in patients suffering from subacute Frozen Shoulder. On the other hand, it has been hypothesized that the SSN may be involved in the pathogenesis of Frozen Shoulder and that therefore using optimal approach and drugs (combination of local anesthetics and corticosteroids) in SSNB should be further evaluated in high-quality RCTs.\n\nIn a retrospective review of 102 patients, Jung et al. showed that the combination of an IACI with an SSNB further increased treatment efficacy compared to a single IACI in Frozen Shoulder patients; as pain, ROM and function scored significantly better at different time points (2weeks, 2months and 1 year).\n\nTo our knowledge, there has been no previous prospective RCT investigating the added value of an SSNB in combination with an IACI, delivering under ultra-sound guidance the same total amount of corticosteroids in both treatment arms and assuring quadruple blinding (participant, care provider, investigator and outcomes assessor).\n\nThe aim of this study is to determine if there is any difference in pain relief and function, as measured by the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI), in patients with Frozen Shoulder when given an GH IACI with a SSNB compared to an GH IACI with a sham SSNB. Furthermore, we want to identify which patients will benefit most from GH IACI or the combination of GH IACI and SSNB. The results of this trial will help to guide clinical practice treating patients with FS and improve resource allocation."}, "eligibilityModule"=>{"sex"=>"ALL", "stdAges"=>["ADULT", "OLDER_ADULT"], "maximumAge"=>"99 years", "minimumAge"=>"18 years", "healthyVolunteers"=>false, "eligibilityCriteria"=>"Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Written informed consent to participate in the study must be obtained from the subject prior to initiation of any study-mandated procedure\n* Suffering from Frozen Shoulder, defined as: Frozen shoulder is a self-limiting disease characterized by pain and functional restriction in both active and passive shoulder motion lasting more than 1 month, for which radiographic findings of the shoulder joint are unremarkable.\n* Dutch or French speaking persons\n* Age ≥ 18 years\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Subjects with posttraumatic or postsurgical stiff shoulder syndrome\n* History of trauma at the onset of symptoms\n* Subjects with rheumatologic or neurologic disease involving the shoulder\n* Subjects with cervical radiculopathy\n* Coagulation disorder\n* Hypersensitivity to local anesthetics or MRI contrast agent\n* Inability to understand the study procedures\n* Psychiatric illness\n* Pregnancy\n* Subjects who have received prior SSNB in the homolateral shoulder\n* Subjects who have received an IACI in the homolateral shoulder in the 3 months before inclusion"}, "identificationModule"=>{"nctId"=>"NCT06229964", "acronym"=>"FROSTBLOCK", "briefTitle"=>"Frozen Shoulder Treatment With Intra-Articular Corticosteroid Injection and Suprascapular Nerve Block", "organization"=>{"class"=>"OTHER", "fullName"=>"Universitair Ziekenhuis Brussel"}, "officialTitle"=>"A Double Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) Exploring the Additional Effect of a Suprascapular Nerve Block in Combination With an Intra-Articular Corticosteroid Injection in Patients With Frozen Shoulder", "orgStudyIdInfo"=>{"id"=>"23454_FROSTBLOCK"}}, "armsInterventionsModule"=>{"armGroups"=>[{"type"=>"ACTIVE_COMPARATOR", "label"=>"SSNB + IACI", "description"=>"Patients randomized to this arm will receive a SSNB (40-mg methylprednisolone acetate and 5-mL Ropivacaine 2mg/ml) than a IACI (40-mg methylprednisolone acetate and 1-mL Ropivacaine 2mg/ml).\n\nRehabilitation/physiotherapy is considered standard of care.", "interventionNames"=>["Other: SSNB + IACI"]}, {"type"=>"PLACEBO_COMPARATOR", "label"=>"Sham SSNB + IACI", "description"=>"Patients randomized to this arm will receive a SSNB (5-mL Linisol 10mg/ml) than a IACI (80-mg methylprednisolone acetate and 1-mL Ropivacaine 2mg/ml)\n\nRehabilitation/physiotherapy is considered standard of care.", "interventionNames"=>["Other: Sham SSNB + IACI"]}], "interventions"=>[{"name"=>"SSNB + IACI", "type"=>"OTHER", "otherNames"=>["Usual care"], "description"=>"Usual care: All patients complete rehabilitation under supervision of their own physiotherapist.
