Filter by:The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the additional effects of upper extremity plyometric training versus strength training alone in recreational overhead athletes with shoulder instability. The investigators hypothesis that compared to strengthening training alone, plyometric training combined with strengthening training will significantly improve shoulder isokinetic strength, proprioception, scapular kinematics, symptoms of shoulder instability, and shoulder function.
Various stretches are used to lengthen the posterior shoulder capsule. No study has reported the comparison of the pragmatic posterior capsular stretch and cross body stertch

The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of Battlefield Acupuncture (BFA) in addition to usual post-surgical shoulder physical therapy compared to a standard shoulder rehabilitation program in reducing medication use and pain in patients who have undergone shoulder surgery. Measurements of medication (opioid, NSAID, acetaminophen, etc.) use (daily number of pills consumed), pain rating, patient specific functional scale and global rating of change will be taken at 24, 72 hours, 7 days, 14 days and at six weeks post-surgery. It is hypothesized that the inclusion of Battlefield Acupuncture will result in a decrease in medication use and post-surgical pain when compared to rehabilitation alone. The population for this study is male and female DoD beneficiaries, ages 17-55 (17 if cadet) that are not participating in other shoulder research studies. The subjects in the experimental group will receive Battlefield Acupuncture in addition to their respective post-surgical shoulder rehabilitation protocol.
The purpose of the trial is investigate the benefits of a novel, newly invented exercise technique protocol relative to physiological changes in upper limb proprioception (primary) and subjective readiness for return to sport (secondary). The intervention (Overhead perturbation training) will be compared with a control intervention (non-perturbed stimulus) in a population of type II anterior glenohumeral joint instability patients (according to the Stanmore classification of instability). Each group will be assessed at baseline for glenohumeral joint proprioception (via lazer-pointer active relocation test), as well as perceived functional level (via Western Ontario Shoulder Instability index) and Shoulder Instability‑Return to Sport after Injury (SIRSI) score. They will then undertake a 6 week exercise regime which is exactly the same- except the intervention used perturbated stimulus and the control uses non-perturbed stimulus. Outcome measures are re-assessed at the end of the intervention period. Results will be assessed statistically for statistical significance.
