ABSTRACT

CONTEXT: Adhesive Capsulitis has been described as a self-limiting condition, lasting on an average 2-3 years. It is estimated to affect 2% -5% of the population. Usually affects performance in activities of daily living.
AIM: To study the effectiveness of Actual training of ADL’s along with Conventional Occupational Therapy in improving Upper Extremity function in Sub-acute stage of Adhesive capsulitis
METHODS AND MATERIALS: 10 Patients between the age 40-60 years of both the genders, with unilateral shoulder pain for more than 3 months and had received only analgesic treatment.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Statistical analysis-Pain on VAS, UEFI, Muscle Power, ROM And COPM outcomes were done by using descriptive and inferential statistics using chi-square test, Mann Whitney U test and Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test and software used in the analysis were SPSS 24.0 version and GraphPad Prism 7.0 version and p<0.05 is considered as level of significance.
CONCLUSION: On therapeutic basis in Occupational Therapy, the Conventional Occupational therapy and Actual ADL training both were effective in subacute stage of Adhesive Capsulitis.
But, when Client - Centered care perspective considered, then Actual ADL training along with Conventional Occupational therapy is found to be effective than Conventional Occupational therapy alone.

Key words: ADL (Activities of Daily Living), COPM (Canadian Occupational Performance Measure), ROM (Range of Motion), UEFI (Upper Extremity Function Index)
