Abstract
The current research aims at designing a recommended program to increase the functional efficiency of the frozen shoulder in elderly male patients with type 2 diabetes and identifying its effects on improving the muscular strength of shoulder muscles on all directions, the range of motion of the frozen shoulder on flexion, extension and adduction movements, the degree of pain and the blood sugar. The researchers used the quasi-experimental approach (one-group design) with pre-, intermediate and post-measurements. Subjects (n=8) were purposefully chosen from elderly males (50-60 years) with frozen shoulder and type 2 diabetes who undergo treatment at Kafr Al-Shaikh Sports Club rehabilitation clinic. The researchers concluded that using physiotherapy with dynamic rehabilitation exercises increased the muscle strength of the working muscles of the shoulder joint in cases of patients of frozen shoulder with type 2 diabetes. Using physiotherapy with dynamic rehabilitation exercises range of motion of the shoulder joint in cases of patients of frozen shoulder with type 2 diabetes The recommended program led to significant improvements for pain and blood sugarThere are statistically significant differences on all the research variables in favor of the post-measurements. These improvements are due to the use of physiotherapy (thermal treatment) with rehabilitation exercises in cases of elderly people with frozen shoulder and type 2 diabetes.
