New Recruiting Trial: USG-Guided Shoulder Injections in Frozen Shoulder

Researchers are testing a new way to inject medicine into the shoulder using ultrasound guidance to help people with frozen shoulder, a condition where the shoulder becomes stiff and painful. Frozen shoulder makes it hard to move your arm, and this study is looking at whether guided injections can help reduce pain and improve movement. The trial is starting in April 2026 at a hospital in Turkey.

WHY IT MATTERSThis trial offers a potentially more precise injection technique for frozen shoulder patients who haven't found relief with standard treatments, using ultrasound to ensure the medication reaches the right spot in the shoulder joint.

WHY IT MATTERSThis validated assessment tool enables healthcare systems to systematically identify and address the specific economic, emotional, and physical support needs of parents caring for children with rare diseases, potentially improving family quality of life and care outcomes.
