    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedics
    • Psychology
    • Medical Research

    Background:

    • Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) is a debilitating musculoskeletal condition.
    • The psychological profile of patients with frozen shoulder requires further investigation.
    • Understanding patient personality traits may offer insights into the condition's development and management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the personality profiles of patients diagnosed with frozen shoulder.
    • To identify potential psychological differences between frozen shoulder patients and a control group.
    • To explore the implications of personality traits for the etiology and treatment of frozen shoulder.

    Main Methods:

    • Fifty-six patients diagnosed with frozen shoulder participated in the study.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • The Middlesex Hospital Questionnaire was utilized to assess personality profiles.
  • Patient data was compared against a control group.

    • Main Results:

    • Female patients with frozen shoulder demonstrated significantly elevated levels of somatic anxiety compared to the control group.
    • No specific personality profile was universally identified across all frozen shoulder patients.
    • Preliminary findings suggest a potential link between somatic anxiety and frozen shoulder in females.

    Conclusions:

    • Somatic anxiety may play a significant role in the etiology and progression of frozen shoulder, particularly in females.
    • Future research should consider sex-specific analyses when evaluating personality profiles in frozen shoulder patients.
    • These findings may inform more targeted and effective treatment strategies for frozen shoulder.
