Shoulder block comparison for frozen shoulder pain relief
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests two types of nerve blocks for frozen shoulder. It will see if one works better than the other to improve movement and reduce pain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have had shoulder pain and stiffness for at least 6 weeks
- The problem is in one shoulder only and limits movement in at least two directions (like raising your arm, twisting it out, or rotating it inward)

This trial compares two treatments for frozen shoulder: a corticosteroid injection into the shoulder joint and a nerve block (injection near the shoulder nerve) to reduce pain and improve movement. It aims to find which approach works better for people with frozen shoulder.
This study tests whether a nerve block (numbing injection) can make a shoulder stretch procedure called hydrodistension more comfortable and effective for people with frozen shoulder. If you have persistent shoulder stiffness despite other treatments, you may be a candidate.
This study tests whether ultrasound-guided injections into the shoulder can improve pain and movement in people with frozen shoulder. It may help if you have had shoulder pain for at least 3 months and other treatments haven't worked well.
This trial tests two types of nerve blocks, SHAC and suprascapular, to see which provides better pain relief during and after arthroscopic shoulder surgery. It may help you choose a more effective way to manage pain without relying on opioids.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks for pain relief during shoulder surgery. You will receive either a combined block near the shoulder blade and front of the shoulder, or a standard block in the neck area, to see which provides better pain control.
This trial compares two treatments for frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis): a steroid injection alone versus a steroid injection plus a nerve block. The goal is to find which approach provides better pain relief for people who have not improved after two weeks of conservative care.
