Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Pain (Visual analogue scale)

s a validated, subjective measure for acute and chronic pain. Scores are recorded by making a handwritten mark on a 10-cm line that represents a continuum between "no pain" and "worst pain.

Time frame
at baseline and post-procedure at 1, 3 and 6 months.
2

total pain scores

is a combination of simple pain score, radiation, and sleep disturbance score

Time frame
at baseline and post-procedure at 1, 3 and 6 months.
3

shoulder pain disability index

The Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) is a self-administered questionnaire that consists of two dimensions, one for pain and the other for functional activities. The pain dimension consists of five questions regarding the severity of an individual's pain. Functional activities are assessed with eight questions designed to measure the degree of difficulty an individual has with various activities of daily living that require upper-extremity use. The SPADI takes 5 to 10 minutes for a patient to complete and is the only reliable and valid region-specific measure for the shoulder.

Time frame
at baseline and post-procedure at 1, 3 and 6 months.
4

active range of movement of the shoulder joint

The active and passive range of abduction, adduction, flexion , extension , internal rotation and external rotation will be measured using goniometry

Time frame
at baseline and post-procedure at 1, 3 and 6 months.
