Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the benefits from adding multimedia animations to a paper-based therapeutic exercise program in subjects with rotator cuff related shoulder pain. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Does subjects improve more regarding shoulder disability and pain? - Are the subjects more satisfied with the treatment received? - Do the subjects adhere more to the exercise program? - Do the subjects perform better the trained exercises? - Do the subjects have greater expectations with the treatment received? Participants will perform a therapeutic exercise program within 6 months. Researchers will compare the addition of web-app animations to the classical paper-based information.

External rotation at 0º of abduction with elastic band. Internal rotation at 0º of abduction with elastic band. Shoulder protraction in supine position with weights. Low row with elastic band. Horizontal adduction stretching.
Multimedia animation information
Multimedia animation videos (including audio) showing the performance of the prescribed exercises.
Paper-based information
Paper-based information showing the performance of the prescribed exercises, based on figures and a brief description of the exercise performance.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Change in Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) The SPADI ranges from 0% (no disability) to 100% (maximum degree of disability) Change from baseline to 6-week, change from baseline to 12-week, and change from baseline to 24-week
Secondary Change in Pain intensity Mean pain intensity during last week (at rest, with movement, and at night) measured with a numeric pain rating scale, which ranges from zero (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable). Change from baseline to 6-week, change from baseline to 12-week, and change from baseline to 24-week
Secondary Change in Patient's expectations of improvement Patient's expectations of improvement measured with a numeric rating scale, which ranges from 0 (no expectation of improvement) to 10 (full recovery expectation). Change from baseline to 3-week, and change from baseline to 6-week
Secondary Patient's satisfaction Patient's satisfaction with received treatment measured with a numeric rating scale, which ranges from zero (not at all satisfied with the treatment received) to 10 (fully satisfied with the treatment received) 6-week
Secondary Patient's satisfaction Patient's satisfaction with received treatment measured with a numeric rating scale, which ranges from zero (not at all satisfied with the treatment received) to 10 (fully satisfied with the treatment received) 12-week
Secondary Patient's impression of improvement Patient's impression of improvement measured with the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) scale. The PGI-I is an seven-point ordinal scale ranging from 1 (much worse), through 3 (no change), to 6 (very much better). 6-week
Secondary Patient's impression of improvement Patient's impression of improvement measured with the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) scale. The PGI-I is an seven-point ordinal scale ranging from 1 (much worse), through 3 (no change), to 6 (very much better). 12-week
Secondary Patient's impression of improvement Patient's impression of improvement measured with the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) scale. The PGI-I is an seven-point ordinal scale ranging from 1 (much worse), through 3 (no change), to 6 (very much better). 24-week
Secondary Patient's ability to adequately perform the prescribed exercises Patient's ability to adequately perform the prescribed exercises will be evaluated only in 20 subjects (ten from each group). It will be measured recording videotapes of the patient's performing the exercises, that will be rated by two independent investigators as good/bad performance, five times per exercise (three exercises overall). 6-week
Secondary Patient's adherence Patient's home adherence to the prescribed exercises measured with self-registered calendars, as the percentage of days performing the exercise at home over the maximum days available between the first physical therapy session and the last follow-up. 3-week
Secondary Patient's adherence Patient's home adherence to the prescribed exercises measured with self-registered calendars, as the percentage of days performing the exercise at home over the maximum days available between the first physical therapy session and the last follow-up. 6-week
Secondary Patient's adherence Patient's home adherence to the prescribed exercises measured with self-registered calendars, as the percentage of days performing the exercise at home over the maximum days available between the first physical therapy session and the last follow-up. 12-week
Secondary Patient's adherence Patient's home adherence to the prescribed exercises measured with self-registered calendars, as the percentage of days performing the exercise at home over the maximum days available between the first physical therapy session and the last follow-up. 24-week
Secondary Patient's satisfaction with the multimedia animations Patient's satisfaction with the multimedia animations measured with a 5-point Likert-type scale, which ranges from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). 12-week
Secondary Patient's perceived usability of multimedia animations Patient's perceptions on the usability of the multimedia animations measured with the System Usability Scale (SUS), which is composed of 10 items that are rated in a 5-point Likert-type scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), with an overall rating ranging from 0% of perceived usability to 100% of perceived usability. 12-week
Secondary Patient's perceived usefulness of multimedia animations Patient's perceived usefulness of multimedia animations measured with a 5-point Likert-type scale, which ranges from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). 12-week
