Ultrasound-Guided PENG Block for Chronic Shoulder Pain
This study tests whether an ultrasound-guided Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) block can improve pain and function in adults with chronic shoulder pain who haven’t responded to standard treatments.
-
Suprascapular Nerve PRF for Chronic Shoulder Pain: Notch vs Midpoint Approaches
This study tests two ways of applying pulsed radiofrequency to the suprascapular nerve to see which better reduces pain and improves shoulder function in people with chronic shoulder pain from rotator cuff tendinopathy.
-
High-intensity interval training for persistent inflammatory shoulder pain
This study will try short sessions of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) in adults with long-term shoulder pain thought to be driven by low-grade inflammation to see if the exercise is acceptable and whether inflammation and pain-related measures change.
-
Movement-and-thinking therapy versus exercise for chronic shoulder pain
This study will test whether a program that combines movement retraining and changing pain-related beliefs (cognitive functional therapy) helps adults with chronic shoulder pain more than a standard therapeutic exercise program.
-
Investigating the Upper Trapezius Muscle's Role in Chronic Shoulder Pain
This study looks at how the upper trapezius muscle works in people with chronic shoulder pain compared to healthy individuals to see how muscle quality and other factors might affect their pain.
-
Using a smartphone app to track pain and mood changes
This study is testing a smartphone app to track pain and mood changes in people with chronic pain and healthy individuals to see how these factors affect pain over time.
