Popis: Background: Fire needle which is an integral part of the acupuncture therapy. Periarthritis of shoulder (PAS) is a common disease, which brings lots of pain for patients. The clinical practice indicates that fire needle has a therapeutic effect on the PAS. Here, we will provide a protocol to explore the effectiveness and safety of fire needle for the PAS. Methods: We will search the randomized controlled trails (RCT) literatures of fire needle for the PAS in 9 electronic databases, including 5 English databases (PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials [Cochrane Library], and WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform [TCTRP]) and 4 Chinese databases (Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure [CNKI], Chinese VIP Information, Wanfang Database, and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database [CBM]). We will consider the Ability assessment of daily living activities (ADL) as the primary outcome and the secondary outcome will include visual analogue scale (VAS), shoulder range of motion (ROM) and adverse events incidence caused by fire needle, such as dizziness, nausea, vomiting, weariness, etc. The selection of the studies will be performed by EndnoteX7 software. All analyses will be conducted by using RevMan software V5.3. Result: This study will provide a rational synthesis of current evidences for fire needle on PAS. Conclusion: The conclusion of this study will provide evidence to judge the effectiveness and safety of fire needle on PAS. Registration: PROS-PERO CRD42019119686.
