The Effectiveness of Isometric Exercise on the Management of Chronic Shoulder Pain

Chronic Shoulder Pain Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Influence of the Intensity of Isometric Exercise on Pain Intensity, Muscle Pain Sensitivity and Function in Patients With Chronic Shoulder Pain: A Parallel Single-blind Randomized Study

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the intensity of Isometric Contraction of shoulder external rotators, comparing the effect of a high-level IC (80% maximal voluntary isometric contraction) versus a low-level Isometric Contraction (20% maximal voluntary isometric contraction) on pain intensity, pain thresholds, and function in chronic pain shoulder patients.

Clinical Trial Description

This was a single-blinded, randomized parallel study. Eighty-two patients presenting chronic musculoskeletal shoulder pain were allocated to two groups. Patients in group 1 (n= 41) received a five-series Isometric Contraction of shoulder external rotators at 20% maximal voluntary isometric contraction, while patients in group 2 (n= 41) received similar protocol but the intensity of contraction was set at 80% maximal voluntary isometric contraction. In both cases, each series of IC was done until exhaustion or up to a maximum of 5 minutes. Patients received five sessions of treatment during a two-week period. Outcome measures included muscle pain sensitivity (pressure pain thresholds) and pain intensity (pain intensity numerical rating score), and shoulder function (Constant Score). ;
