Filter by:The aim of the study is to examine the relationship between the Patient- Specific Functional Scale (PSFS) and shoulder functions in the physiotherapy and rehabilitation program applied to patients with shoulder problems.
This study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical study aiming to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the rotator cuff function restoration balloon in patients with irreparable rotator cuff tear compared to partial repair of the rotator cuff.
The objectives of this study are the assessment of the clinical, radiographical and patient-reported outcomes of SMR Stemless Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty (LimaCorporate S.p.A.) used as standard of care over a period of at least 2 years of follow-up and the evaluation of the incidence of any complication.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a 8-week pain neuroscience education programme compared to a biomedical education programme on the rehabilitation of patients who undergo arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Outcome measures included pain intensity, patients' attitudes and beliefs about pain, disability and quality of life.
The present study addresses the issue about post-surgical recovery process, for patients arthroscopically treated for rotator-cuff tear. The aim of the research is to test the effectiveness of a new rehabilitation protocol that includes kinematic biofeedback with the motion analysis system ISEO.
The study aims to examine the effect of short-term rehabilitation exercise support using digital healthcare system (Uincare homeplus) in the patients with rotator cuff repair surgery. The study is a two-arm prospective randomized controlled study comparing the effect of rehabilitation exercise digital healthcare system at home with conventional brochure-based home exercise. Simple Shoulder Test (SST), Pain (using Numerical rating scale), shoulder range of motion (ROM), Disability of Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH), Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI), quality of life using EQ-5D will be evaluation on enrollment, 6-weeks, 12-weeks and 24-weeks after enrollment.
The purpose of this project is to extract effusions and damaged tendons during tendon repair therapy in patients with tendon tears. Then, we would analyze tendon-related transcription factors from histology and cytology, and compare changes in tendon with ultrasound images. Helps to understand the mechanism of tendon lesions.
The aim of the clinical trial is to investigate the characteristics of patients, who respond vs. not respond to exercise therapy for the nonsurgical management of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS).
Subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) is a common disorder of shoulder joint. SIS has been accounted for 44-65 % of all shoulder pain. It is believed that one important contributing factor is scapular dyskinesis. Patients with SIS demonstrates scapular dyskinesis, including decrease in upward rotation, scapular posterior tilt, and external rotation. Altered muscle activity of scapular muscles may contribute to scapular dyskinesis, such as increase in activity of upper trapezius, and decrease in activity of lower trapezius and serratus anterior. In addition to these changes in neuromuscular control, central nervous system may be re-organized in patients with musculoskeletal disorders. Evidence has been reported that center of gravity of motor mapping changes, corticospinal excitability decreases and inhibition increases in patients with shoulder injuries such as instability, rotator cuff tendinopathy and SIS. These corticospinal changes are believed to be related to chronicity of symptoms and lack of treatment effects. Previous studies have applied many types of treatments to SIS, such as manipulation, taping, and exercises. However, most studies mainly focused on the outcomes of pain and function, few studies investigated changes in neuromuscular control following treatments. Yet, no study has addressed how corticospinal system changes following treatment in patient with shoulder injuries. Motor skill training, which has been widely used in training healthy subjects or patients with neurological disorders, has been shown to change corticospinal systems, including increasing excitability and decreasing inhibition. To our knowledge, no study has integrated the concepts of motor skill learning into a short-term treatment or investigated the effects of motor skill training on corticospinal systems in patients with SIS. The purposes of the study are to investigate the effects of short-term motor skill training on pain, neuromuscular control, corticospinal system in patients with SIS, and also to investigate whether changes in corticospinal parameters will be related to changes in pain, function and neuromuscular control.
The aim of the trial is comparison of the effectiveness of three methods of conservative treatment in partial thickness rotator cuff injury (PTRCI): collagen with PRP injections, PRP injections alone and collagen injections alone.
