Summary
This study is a randomized clinical trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of using interactive digital devices to guide home exercise for patients with frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis). Background: While exercise therapy is a crucial treatment for improving joint mobility and reducing pain in frozen shoulder patients, ensuring proper technique and compliance during home exercises can be difficult. Methodology: The trial plans to enroll 30 participants, randomly assigning them to either an interactive device group or a control group. Both groups will undergo standard hospital rehabilitation twice a week. Intervention: The intervention group will be provided with an iPhone containing interactive rehabilitation software to perform 15 minutes of guided home exercise daily. The control group will receive standard home exercise education. Hypothesis: The study hypothesizes that after a 4-week period, the group utilizing the interactive device for home exercise will demonstrate superior improvements in pain, joint angle, grip strength, and quality of life compared to the control group.
