Filter by:To compare the effect between the exercise intervention (strengthening exercise and stretching exercise) and exercise intervention with taping on decreasing round shoulder posture and improving symptoms in subjects with shoulder impingement syndrome/round shoulder syndrome.
Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair is associated with poor post-operative pain management. The multimodal analgesic scheme (oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs associated with oral opioids) currently used according to the pain management guidelines is insufficient for most of these patients. There are few reports on the use of buprenorphine in post-operative pain with encouraging results. There is no evidence of its use in the management of post-operative pain of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair
Kinesiotape (KT) is widely used in musculoskeletal rehabilitation as an adjuvant to treatment but minimal evidence supports its use. The aim of this study is to determine the immediate and short-term effects of shoulder KT on muscular activity, mobility, strength and pain after rotator cuff surgery. Our hypotheses were that KT should not improve muscle function, mobility, strength or pain in a clinically meaningful way. Methods: Thirty-nine subjects with shoulder rotator cuff surgery were tested 6 and 12 weeks post-surgery, without tape, with KT and with a sham tape (ST). KT and ST were applied in a randomized order. For each condition, muscular activity of upper trapezius, three parts of deltoid and infraspinatus during shoulder flexion, range of motion (ROM) and pain intensity were assessed. At 12 weeks, isometric strength at 90° of shoulder flexion, with related muscular activity and pain intensity were also measured. Subjects maintained the last tape applied for three days and recorded pain intensity at wake-up and during the day.
The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of the video-based rehabilitation program on pain, functionality and quality of life in the conservative treatment of partial tears of the rotator cuff whether it was as successful as the physiotherapist-supervised rehabilitation program.
Background: Despite similar treatment outcomes for surgery or conservative care, the number of surgeries for the care of rotator cuff (RTC) related shoulder pain has increased. With the increase in surgery, there is an increased risk of harms, increased costs, and high re-tear rates. Patient expectations are beliefs or attitudes that include pre-treatment thoughts and beliefs regarding the need for specific treatment methods and the timing and intensity of these methods. Brief interventions designed to alter and enhance treatment expectations for conservative care and have been shown to improve patient expectations, but to date, no studies have explored whether such interventions can influence patient decisions to pursue surgical care. The investigators propose a comprehensive intervention that involves Patient Engagement Education, and Restructuring of Cognitions (PEERC) that is designed to change expectations, will reduce the likelihood that patients will choose to have shoulder surgery and improve functional outcomes. The cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) approaches that form the core of our PEERC protocol are patient-centered and are designed to empower the patient in their own recovery process. Purpose/Aims: To examine the effect of the PEERC protocol on the decision to have surgery (primary), and improve global well-being, pain catastrophizing, pain, functional outcomes, and follow up expectations (secondary).
The shoulder pain is commonly seeing in orthopedic consultation. Many patients was affected in activities of daily living and in laborer absent. One of the first treatment lines is the steroid infiltration for pain relieve, however in several times is only effective by a short period of time, and the symptoms usually appear again. One of the not known infiltration is the high volumen infiltration in subacromial space, this treatment appears to be an effective treatment for this patients.
A randomised and controlled trial to people diagnosed with rotator cuff injuries who are divided into 3 groups of treatment: shoulder myofascial trigger points release, manual diaphragm release and diaphragm mobilization through hipopressive gymnastic exercise. The pain and range of shoulder movement are assessed before and after the treatment in all the participants. Hypothesis of the clinical study: the treatment of diaphragm muscle, via manual release or active mobilization, has impact on rotator cuff injury symptoms comparing with a standard treatment of shoulder myofascial trigger points release. Discussion: The relation between shoulder and diaphragm muscle, through innervation (phrenic nerve and brachial plexus), embryology and myofascial connections, could lead to include in clinical practice the examination and treatment of other structures besides shoulder girdle such as diaphragmatic region in rotator cuff injuries.
The purpose of this study is to investigate and compare the acute effects of isolytic and static stretching training in individuals having subacromial impingement syndrome with glenohumeral internal rotation deficit. Isolytic group will receive isolytic stretching in modified cross body position. Static group will receive static stretching in modified cross body position. Stretching groups will be evaluated before and just after stretching exercise. Control group will receive no stretching. Control group will be evaluated for the first time and then will be waited until the duration of the stretching exercise program. Afterwards, second evaluation will be performed
The purpose of this study is to investigate and compare the effect of isolytic and static stretching training in individuals having subacromial impingement syndrome with glenohumeral internal rotation deficit. Isolytic group will receive isolytic stretching in modified cross body stretching position and standard physiotherapy program. Static group will receive static stretching in modified cross body stretching position and standard physiotherapy program. Control group will receive only standard physiotherapy program.
The purpose of this study is to collect postmarket data in subjects who receive surgical treatment of a full-thickness rotator cuff tear (of at least 1.5 cm) with the BioWick⢠SureLock⢠implant. Both performance and safety data will be collected.
