Background: Adhesive capsulitis of shoulder is characterized by insidious and progressive pain and loss of active and passive mobility of glenohumeral joint. In many physical therapy programs for subjects with adhesive capsulitis of shoulder mobilization techniques are an important part of the intervention. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of PNF stretching techniques and Self stretching techniques in subjects with adhesive capsulitis.Objective: To compare the effectiveness of PNF stretching and self stretching in improving ROM, shoulder pain & disability index in patients with adhesive capsulitis.
Method: 30 subjects diagnosed by an orthopedic surgeon as having adhesive capsulitis of shoulder joint and who showed a typical restriction of external rotation and abduction were selected. Subjects were randomly taken, divided into two groups each of 15 subjects. Group A: (n=15):- Treated with PNF stretching. Group B: (n=15):- Treated with self stretching. Analysis was based on ROM and Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) sub scores and total scores.
Outcome measures: The following outcome measures were measured at baseline, 2nd week and 4th week follow up.
1. Active ROM of shoulder External rotation and Abduction.
2. Shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI).
Results: The ROM and SPADI percentage across baseline, 2nd week and 4th week follow up showed a significant improvement statistically in their mean scores within Group A and Group B. Statistically significant greater changes in score were found in PNF Stretching (Group A) for ROM and SPADI as compared to Self Stretching (Group B).
Conclusion: The results indicate that PNF Stretching (Group A) and Self Stretching (Group B) are significantly effective in improving ROM and SPADI (sub scores and total scores). However PNF Stretching (Group A) appears to be more effective in improving glenohumeral joint mobility and reducing disability as compared to Self Stretching (Group B).

Back ground: stroke patients are having variety of disable functions, including limited hand functions which has key role to do activities of daily living.Objective: To determine the added effects of electrical stimulation combined with task oriented training in stroke patients.
Methods: 30 subjects were selectively divided in to two groups. Group A received Eletrical stimulation with Task oriented training while Group B received only task oriented training. Outcome measures were grip strength, Box and Block test, 9 hole peg and ROM.
Findings: statistical significant difference found for all the variables used in methods in between the groups.
Conclusion: Electrical stimulation with task oriented training improves hand functions more effectively compared to only task oriented training in stroke patients.

Background: People with stroke are at risk of falls. The majorities of individual with stroke has some degree of residual impairment, but regain walking ability and will be discharged home. Three quarters fell in the first six month after their discharge from hospital. Identify increased knowledge of incremental risk factors for falling and the assumption that some of the identified risk factors can be modified may lead to development of intervention to reduce number of fallsObjective: To explore the relationship between cognition, mobility and functional performance with respect to fall incidence in recovering stroke patients.
Methods: 110 subjects with stroke completed the study. Subjects were assessed on the basis of cognition, mobility and functional performance during 4th week after stroke incidence. Information regarding number of falls and characteristic of fall gained during a personal interview after six month from stroke. Number of falls correlated with baseline scores.
Findings: There is a significant good correlation found between cognition, mobility, and functional performance to number of falls in recovering stroke patients.
Conclusion: Cognition, mobility and functional performance might contribute to fall risk and fall related injuries in recovering stroke patients.

Back ground: Adhesive capsulitis, most commonly referred to as frozen shoulder (FS), is an idiopathic disease with 2 principal characteristics: pain and contracture, affecting the external rotation most. In contrast to traditional mobilization technique andrea et al found posterior glide more effective in improving external rotation ROM and pain.Objective: To find out the effective stretch glide for external rotation ROM and pain in patients with primary adhesive capsulitis.
Methods: 30 subjects were divided into two groups called Anterior stretch glide (ASG) and Posterior stretch glide (PSG). Each group received ultrasound, same exercise protocol along with their designated glides for 2 weeks. Outcome measures were External Rotation ROM and VAS. Data was analyzed by using the SPSS software. Wilcoxon signed rank and rank sum tests were used to measure the differences in VAS and Paired and unpaired t tests were used for ROM evaluation.
Findings: There was a significant difference in External Rotation ROM and VAS in both the groups after the intervention, even there is a significant difference between the groups.
Conclusion: anterior stretch glide is very effective in reducing pain or unpleasantness intensity and increasing external rotation range of motion at shoulder in patients with primary adhesive capsulitis.
