Protocol summary

Study aim
Determining and comparing the effectiveness of three methods: 1) suprascapular block injection with 2) methylprednisolone injection with 3) hydrodistension injection, in reducing pain and improving shoulder function and sleep quality of patients.
Design
Our study is a clinical trial without a control group, which is randomized in 3 parallel groups, three blind, and phase 3 is a clinical trial that is conducted on 102 patients. For randomization, block random division produced by Random Allocation Software was used in blocks of six into three groups with a ratio of 1:1:1.
Settings and conduct
Patients after randomization, in room number 9 of the operating room by an anesthesiologist under ultrasound guidance and with a gray spine needle injection of the shoulder in one of three types: 1) suprascapular nerve block and 2) methylprednisolone and 3) hydrodistension of the shoulder joint based on the internal group The envelope is done. In this study, both the patients, the outcome assessor, and the data analyst are blinded. In order to hide the random allocation, the codes created by the software will be placed in non-transparent and sealed envelopes.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Age between 18-60 years Definitive diagnosis of frozen shoulder Failure to respond to non-invasive treatments exclusion criteria: History of recent trauma or surgery Acromioclavicular joint osteoarthritis radiculopathy
Intervention groups
1) Intra-articular injection of the shoulder under ultrasound guidance 2) Suprascapular notch injection under ultrasound guidance 3) Intra-articular hydrodeposition injection under ultrasound guidance
Main outcome variables
Shoulder function, sleep quality

Triple blinded
Blinding description
In this study, the data analyst and the result evaluator and the participant are blinded. Due to the same treatment method (injection) and the same color of injectable drugs and the same injection site in all three groups, the possibility of blinding at the participant level is also possible.

Description
After the diagnosis of frozen shoulder by the orthopedist in the clinic, the patients refer to the operating room for injection and are randomly divided into three groups. For injection, a gray spine needle number 27 is used. The exact location of the injection is determined using an ultrasound guide, and the desired drugs are 2% lidocaine ampoule from Caspin Tamin Company, 40 mg methylprednisolone acetate ampoule from Elixir Company, and distilled water from Shahid Ghazi Company. Only one injection is given to the patients and then they undergo follow-up for 24 weeks, which will include 5 examinations.
