What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published

Summary

This study tests whether a robotic arm exoskeleton can help people with frozen shoulder move better and feel less pain. About 40 adults with stiff-phase frozen shoulder will use the robot for assisted exercises. The goal is to see if the robot improves shoulder range of motion and daily function better than standard care.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: \- 1\. Patients aged 20 years or older diagnosed by a clinician with primary or secondary frozen shoulder or adhesive capsulitis: 1. Patients diagnosed by a clinician with frozen shoulder or adhesive capsulitis in the stiff phase. 2. The patient has a loss of at least 50% of passive joint range of motion (including of shoulder flexion, abduction, internal rotation, and external rotation) on the affected shoulder compared to the relatively healthy shoulder. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Individuals with osteoarthritis or other skeletal conditions of the shoulder joint. 2. Individuals with any contraindications to treatment, such as joint fusion, severe osteoporosis, or symptoms of any peripheral nerve compression. 3. Individuals with untreated joint dislocations, fractures, or tendon ruptures. 4. Individuals who have received steroid injections within the month prior to the study. 5. Individuals who are uncommunicated or cognitively impaired. 6. Pregnant women. 7. Patients who refuse recruitment will also be excluded.
