Effectiveness of Ultrasonography-guided Pericapsular Nerve Group Block in Patients With Adhesive Capsulitis

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of ultrasonography-guided PENG block prior to joint mobilization therapy on shoulder pain, function, and kinesiophobia in patients with AC resistant to conservative treatment, in comparison with a control group

The mobilization methods encompassed the scapula and clavicular joints, in addition to the glenohumeral (GH) joint, taking into consideration their biomechanical interactions. These exercises were supervised and administered by the physiotherapist during each session. Additionally, the patients were provided with a home exercise program that included exercises for posture, thera band, and finger ladder, with instructions to perform 10-15 repetitions twice a day independently \[
