Effect of Ultrasound-Guided Intra-Articular Injection of Sodium Hyaluronate Combined with Exercise Therapy on Shoulder Joint Pain and Function in Patients with Shoulder Periarthritis
Objective To analyze the effect of ultrasound-guided intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate combined with exercise therapy on patients with shoulder periarthritis.Methods A total of 84 patients with shoulder periarthritis admitted to Yicheng District People's Hospital in Zaozhuang City from January 2021 to October 2023 were selected as the research objects and randomly divided into a control group and an observation group,with 42 cases in each group.The control group received exercise therapy,while the observation group received under ultrasound-guided intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate.Compare the clinical efficacy,pain level,shoulder joint range of motion,shoulder joint function,and quality of life between two groups.Results The total effective rate of the observation group was 95.24%,which was higher than the control group's 80.95%,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,the pain Visual Analogue Scale score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group,and the range of motion of the shoulder joint in flexion,abduction,internal rotation,and external rotation was higher than that of the control group,with statistically significant differences between the groups(P<0.05).After treatment,the observation group had higher scores on the Constant Murley Shoulder Function Assessment Scale and various dimensions of the Quality of Life Comprehensive Assessment Questionnaire compared to the control group,with statistically significant differences between the groups(P<0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate combined with exercise therapy can alleviate shoulder pain in patients with shoulder periarthritis,improve shoulder range of motion,promote shoulder function recovery,and improve quality of life.
