"COMPARATIVE STUDY BETWEEN SUPRA-SCAPULAR NERVE BLOCK VERSUS PLATELET RICH PLASMA INJECTION IN THE TREATMENT OF ADHESIVE CAPSULITIS OF SHOULDER JOINT†Candidate: Dr. Buddhadeb Nayak P.G. Resident , Department of Orthopaedics AIIMS, Raipur (C.G.) Guide: Prof. Dr. Alok C. Agrawal (M.S. D.N.B, PhD Orthopaedics, MAMS) H.O.D Department of Orthopaedics AIIMS, Raipur Co-Guide: Dr. Harshal Sakale –M.S Orthopaedics (Assistant professor, Orthopaedics) Dr. Sankalp Sharma-M.D Pathology (Associate professor, Transfusion Medicine) Dr. Mayank Kumar- M.D Anaesthesiology (Assistant professor, Anaesthesiology) DEPARTMENT OF ORTHOPAEDICS ALL INDIA INSTITUTE OF MEDICAL SCIENCES , RAIPUR (C.G) Thesis For M.S (ORTHOPAEDICS ) AIIMS, RAIPUR (C.G.) 2018-2019 •Adhesive capsulitis(Frozen shoulder) is a benign condition of unknown etiology characterised by painful and ≥ 25% limitation of active and passive glenohumeral range of motion in atleast two directions most notably shoulder abduction and external rotation[1]. •First reported by Duplay in 1872 – “periarthritis scapulohumeral†1.Dias R, Cutts S, Massoud S. Frozen shoulder. BMJ 2005; 331:1453-6. (LoE: 3a) 2.Duplay E. De la periarthrite scapulo-humérale et des raideurs de l`épaule qui en sont la conséquence. Arch Gen Med. 1872;20:513–542. Suprascapular nerve block: It is found that in the group receiving Suprascapular nerve block has significant improvement than the control group.[5] The group who underwent ultrasound guided nerve block had more significant pain relief and the effect was more longer than the blind technique.[6] A study from Anaesthetic pain medicine journal reported that few complications are seen with suprascapular nerve block(SSNB) like intra vascular injection, residual motor block, and very rare pneumothorax.[7]

Platelet Rich Plasma: Platelet-rich plasma is a fraction of whole blood. Aslani et al have reported after treatment with platelet rich plasma(PRP) have-[8] • 60% improvement of pain and 70% improvement in functional outcome, •ROM (range of motion): flexion from 70 degree to 150 degree, •Abduction from 75 degree to 135 and •External rotation from 25 degree to 50 degree with 70% satisfaction score. •All above complications of SSNB are not seen with PRP. 8. Hamidreza Aslani, Sayed Taghi Nourbakhsh, Shahin Salehi, Platelet rich plasma for frozen shouder: -: ABJS.Jan 2016. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES:- 1. To evaluate & compare the outcome of frozen shoulder after either injection of Platelet Rich Plasma or Supra- scapular nerve block. MATERIALS & METHODS:- STUDY DESIGN: Prospective Study (randomized, parallel group, active control trial) SOURCE OF DATA: All consecutive patients with adhesive capsulitis who present to the Department of Orthopaedics, All India Institute Of Medical Sciences, Raipur, during study period of May 2018 to April 2019, and those who fulfil the criteria and give consent to participate in the study. INCLUSION CRITERIA: •Pain and stiffness in one or both the shoulders for at least 4 weeks. •Restricted Active and passive range of motion at the glenohumeral joint. •Age of ≥ 40 and ≤60 years. •Patients giving consent for undergoing in the study. EXCLUSION CRITERIA: •patients with chronic shoulder pain due to other causes like nerve damage or neurologic disorders. •Patient having any skin infection over the affected shoulder. •Having abrasion/lacerations over the affected shoulder. •H/o trauma to shoulder joint. •Patient following shoulder surgery. •Allergy to Depomedrol. •Contraindications to methylprednisolone-like bleeding problems, osteoporosis etc. SAMPLE SIZE: The study will be done on 45 patients each of adhesive capsulitis by SSNB and PRP. Total patients will be 90. •Sample size was calculated using the formula, n= zα2pq/L2 . •Where, n= sample size •Zα = 1.96 (A point on normal distribution with 95% confidence level) •p = prevalence of frozen shoulder i.e. 5% (0.05) (refer article) •q = 1-p= 100%-5%= 95% (0.95) •L= Allowable error which is equal to 10% of p = 0.5% (0.005) •The significance level α (type I error) was fixed at 5% •n (Sample size) = (1.96)2 * 0.05*0.95/ (0.005) 2 = 75 •Considering 20 % dropouts, total sample size is 90 •45 will be given Platelet Rich Plasma injection, and 45 suprascapular nerve block. METHOD: Those patient attending OPD, Dept. of Orthopedics, AIIMS, Raipur with pain and restricted shoulder joint mobility in any plane of less than 25% specially abduction and external rotation for more than a month duration and a normal X-ray will be the material of the study. Recruited patients will undergo simple random sampling by lottery method and divided into 2 groups. Group-1 : Will receive Suprascapular nerve block. Group-2 : Will receive Plate Rich Plasma injection. STATISTICAL CALCULATION : •Statistical analysis will be carried out using statistical packages for SPSS 16.0 for Windows (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). •Students t-test will be applied to compare between the two groups. •RM-ANOVA will be used to compare between post- procedure(day-0), 1 day, 1 month and 6 month. •Two sided p values will be considered as statistically significant at p<0.05.
