Clinical Trial Summary

To determine whether spa therapy has a beneficial effect on pain and disability in the management of shoulder pain due to chronic rotator cuff lesions, this multicentre randomized prospective clinical trial includes patients with shoulder pain due to chronic degenerative rotator cuff tendinopathy who attend French spa resorts as outpatients. Subjects are randomized into two groups: immediate spa therapy (18 days of standardized treatment) and control (spa therapy delayed for 6 months). All patients continue usual treatments during the 6-month follow-up period. The main endpoint is the mean change in the DASH score at 6 months. Secondary endpoints are the mean change in SF-36 components, treatments used, and tolerance. The effect size of spa therapy is calculated and the proportion of patients reaching minimal clinically important improvement (MCII) is compared between groups.
