NCT05920369 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 93

Last updated 2023-06-27

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

A total of 93 suitable patients will be randomly allocated into three groups: Group A will receive both low-energy extracorporeal shock wave therapy and a tailored exercise program, Group B will receive only low-energy extracorporeal shock wave therapy, and Group C will receive only the tailored exercise program.

Conditions

  • Axillary Web Syndrome

Interventions

OTHER

low-energy extracorporeal shockwave and a tailored exercise program

the patient will be positioned lying supine with the affected shoulder in an abducted position to expose the axillary cords. Each patient received a total of 3000 shocks, which were delivered to different areas, including 1000 shocks to the axillary area, 500 shocks to the upper arm, 1000 shocks along the course of the cords, and 500 shocks to the antecubital space. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) was administered in two sessions during the first two weeks of the intervention, and one session each in the 3rd and 4th weeks. The energy flux density was 4 Hz with a range of 0.056-0.068 mJ/mm. Snow Angel, Butterfly Wings, Forward Pinky Slide, Corner Stretch, Chest Stretch, Self-tissue Stretching, Overhead Moose Stretch, and Crescent Side Bend exercises
