Fawcett R, et al. - In this prospective, longitudinal, analytical study, the researchers evaluated shoulder pain and disability in patients undergoing corticosteroid injection into the subacromial–subdeltoid (SA-SD) bursa under ultrasound guidance, assessing both short and long-term outcomes. For this investigation, three hundred seventy-six patients referred for SA-SD bursa injection during a 6 month period were asked to complete a questionnaire assessing shoulder pain and disability in the form of the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI). They reported that the pattern of good short-term, but poorer long-term outcomes from SA-SD bursa injection was in line with previous studies, however, this research provided additional information on the effect of the underlying diagnosis on the potential outcome, especially the presence or absence of a rotator cuff tendon tear.
