Predicting outcome in frozen shoulder (shoulder capsulitis) in presence of comorbidity as measured with Subjective Health Complaints and Neuroticism
BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders Sep 12, 2017
Sharma SP, et al. - This study examined subjective health complaints and Neuroticism as potential predictors of prognosis in patients diagnosed with frozen shoulder as measured by the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) and change in SPADI. Findings demonstrated that, in frozen shoulder, psychometric parameters as measured by the Pseudoneurology subscale in Subjective Health Complaints (SHC) questionnaire did predict the treatment outcome as measured by SPADI at 8 weeks, but not by change in SPADI from baseline to 8 weeks. It may be concluded that psychometric parameters may affect symptoms, but do not predict the rate of recovery in frozen shoulder.
