In the Finnish Imaging of Shoulder study we will recruit 600 participants from a nationally representative general population sample. Participants aged 40 to 75 years will be invited to a clinical visit that includes assessment of general health, shoulder history and symptoms, and bilateral clinical examination and shoulder imaging (both plain radiography and MRI). We aim to assess the prevalence of abnormal imaging findings in both asymptomatic and symptomatic individuals and explore possible risk factors for abnormal imaging findings and shoulder symptoms.
Purpose of the Study: to compare between the effect of kinesio taping technique versus virtual reality technique in rehabilitation of patients with chronic shoulder impingement syndrome.
In recent years the management of shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS) included the thoracic spine as it was proved that it's highly correlated to pathologies in shoulder joint. SIS is proved to be associated with kyphotic posture. Also, It was proved that changing sitting posture affects the measured ROM of shoulder joint and this implicates the influence of changing thoracic position on shoulder mechanics. Explanations were made regarding the role of thoracic spine in affecting the shoulder joint through two ways. Firstly, through affecting the mechanics of scapular movements and secondly through altering the length tension relationship of shoulder musculature. This study would aim at studying the most effective thoracic mobilization in the treatment of SIS.
As it causes pain and disability in individuals with rotator cuff lesions, which is one of the most common causes of shoulder pain, it affects performance in activities of daily living. Shoulder pain significantly affects the quality of life of individuals. The aim of conventional treatment in Rotator Cuff injuries is to reduce the inflammation in the area and to enable the shoulder to perform its normal functions. Conventional treatment is to restore muscle balance in the shoulder area. Muscle balance is achieved by strengthening the teres minor, infraspinatus, and subscapularis, which are also the humeral head depressors, and by strengthening the serratus anterior, levator scapula. For strengthening, the shoulder must have a full range of motion. In our study, stretching exercises, cold pack, Ultrasound, TENS, wand, and Codman exercises, which are classical physiotherapy methods, will be applied to all three groups. There are also studies in the literature investigating the effects of traditional physiotherapy methods on individuals with shoulder Rotator Cuff syndrome. The benefits of breathing exercises on pain, shoulder joint range of motion, and balance have all been researched in the literature. Increased diaphragm activity also guarantees that posture and body positions are maintained healthily. Diaphragm activity generally alters how an individual perceives pain. Diaphragmatic breathing is a therapeutic approach for musculoskeletal disorders.
The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of single PRP injection compared with placebo and multiple PRP injections on pain, quality of life, shoulder function and muscle strength in the treatment of patients who have tendinopathy and/or partial tear in the rotator cuff.
To patients with shoulder collision syndrome, LAENNEC (Human Placenta Hydrolysate) is administered as an injection in the ultrasonic induction underglone, to evaluate the effectiveness and safety.
The investigators aim to determine if a longer acting nerve block, which is a local anesthetic, can help reduce opioid use after surgery in patients that are getting rotator cuff repair surgery. The investigators will also determine if the longer acting block can reduce the number of days that opioids are taken after surgery. Patients that schedule this type of surgery will be given information regarding the study and asked if they want to participate. If they do, they will be randomized to either receive the standard nerve block or the longer acting nerve block. Participants and physicians will not know which nerve block the participants are receiving. Participants will receive a standard pain medication prescription after surgery and will be asked to record pain scores, medications taken and satisfaction level every day in a journal for two weeks. Participants will be asked to bring in their medication bottles and pain journal to the 2-week follow up appointment. Participants' pain scores will be assessed in the office at the follow up appointment and study staff will conduct a pill count. Participants will return for a 6-week follow up appointment and pain scores will be assessed again at that time, and another pill count will be conducted. At this point the study will be complete.
To determine if an acellular dermal graft (ADG) will incorporate into the rotator cuff and subsequently improve outcomes without an increase in risk to the patient
Shoulder arthroscopy is widely used for treatment of different shoulder pathologies. Visual clarity is essential for successful and safe surgery. The aim of present study is to determine whether intraarticular use of tranexamic acid (TXA) in surgery fluid can improve visual clarity and early postoperative pain.
