This study is a double blind, randomized controlled trail. condition/disease: Patient with acute shoulder pain and restricted movement due to a traffic accident. treatment/intervention: Chuna therapy for the shoulder, including integrated Korean medicine treatment
The investigators intend to conduct a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of Chuna therapy for shoulder pain and restricted movement caused by a traffic accident. The study will involve administering shoulder Chuna therapy from the second day of hospitalization until discharge, with the aim of assessing its effects on shoulder pain relief and recovery of range of motion. Although the effectiveness of Korean medicine for treating trauma from traffic accidents has been well studied, the research has largely focused on spinal conditions, such as those affecting the cervical and lumbar spine. Likewise, most studies on Chuna therapy have centered around spinal disorders. Through this study, the investigators aim to explore the therapeutic effects of shoulder Chuna therapy, an area that has not been extensively researched.

|---|---|---|---|
| Shoulder chuna treatment | Experimental | During the hospitalization period, Chuna therapy for the shoulder joint will be performed once a day for a total of 10 to 15 minutes, including before, during, and after the treatment. The practitioner will assess the condition and select one of three techniques-posterior displacement, anterior displacement, or lateral displacement-to apply Chuna therapy |
|
| Korean medical treatment | Active Comparator | The control group were received Korean medical treatment everyday after hospitalization: acupuncture, chuna, pharmacoacupuncture and Korean herbal medicine. |

| Shoulder chuna treatment(posterior displacement, anterior displacement, or lateral displacement) | Procedure | The Shoulder Chuna therapy for the shoulder joint will be performed on the affected shoulder from the second day of hospitalization until the day before discharge. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Numeric Rating Scale(NRS) of Shoulder pain | NRS is a pain scale in which the patient indicates their subjective pain as a whole number from 0 to 10. The participant is asked to report their shoulder pain and discomfort using NRS, where 0 indicates 'no pain or discomfort' and 10 indicates 'the most severe pain and discomfort imaginable'. | Screening, From baseline(Day2) up to Discharge 1 day, 2week after enrollment, 1month after enrollment, 3month after enrollment |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Location of shoulder joint displacement | The location of shoulder pain varies depending on the nerve. The assessor will ask patients where the pain occur. | Screening, From baseline(Day2) up to Discharge 1 day, 2week after enrollment, 1month after enrollment, 3month after enrollment |
| Shoulder Pain intensity scale: Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) |

VAS is an assessment index in which the patient records their pain on a 100mm line from 'no pain' at one end, and 'the most severe pain imaginable' at the other end. |
| From baseline(Day2) up to Discharge 1 day |
| Physical examination (Shoulder active range of motion) | The patient's maximum active and passive range of motion (ROM) of the shoulder, which they can move without pain, will be measured. The shoulder ROM will include six movements: flexion, extension, adduction, abduction, internal rotation, and external rotation. Measurements will be taken before and after treatment using a goniometer. If the patient refuses the measurement due to severe pain or other reasons, a value of 0 degrees will be recorded. | From baseline(Day2) up to Discharge 1 day |
| Shoulder Pain and Disability Index(SPADI) | The patient's functional status will be assessed using the SPADI questionnaire. The SPADI was developed to evaluate the degree of disability related to shoulder pain and consists of 13 items in total: 5 items on the severity of pain and 8 items on the degree of discomfort. Each item is rated on a 10-point scale, with scores ranging from 0 to 10. Higher scores indicate greater disability. A validated Korean version of the SPADI questionnaire will be used. | From baseline(Day2) up to Discharge 1 day, 2week after enrollment, 1month after enrollment, 3month after enrollment |
| EuroQol 5-Dimension (EQ-5D) | The EQ-5D is a method of indirectly calculating the weights of certain health states for quality of life after a multidimensional investigation of health states, and is the most widely used instrument for this purpose. The EQ-5D consists of 5 questions about current health state (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain, anxiety/depression), and each question is scored on a 5-point Likert scale (1=no problems, 3=moderate problems, 5=severe problems). In this study, the investigators will use the Korean version of the EQ-5D, which has been demonstrated to be valid. | From baseline(Day2) up to Discharge 1 day, 2week after enrollment, 1month after enrollment, 3month after enrollment |
| Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) | The PGIC is an index that assesses improvements in functional limitation caused by whiplash injury. Participants rate the improvement in functional limitations after treatment on a 7-point Likert scale (1=Very much improved, 4=No change, 7=Very much worse). This index was originally developed for use in Psychology, but is currently used in various other medical fields to assess improvements in pain. | Discharge 1 day, 2week after enrollment, 1month after enrollment, 3month after enrollment |
