Influence of Interferential Current Therapy in the Treatment of Individuals With Shoulder Impact Syndrome: A Randomized, Placebo Controlled Clinical Trial.

Start date: January 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This project will analyze the influence of interferential current therapy in an exercise program for individuals with a unilateral impact syndrome diagnosis. To that end, volunteers of both genders, aged 18-59 years, had an unilateral, unilateral pain in the shoulder with more than 3 months duration, at least grade 4 pain by the numerical scale of pain assessment, positivity In at least 2 of 3 orthopedic tests for impact syndrome, will be randomized into the following groups: exercise group, exercise + ultrasound group, exercise group + interferential current. Sixteen consecutive treatment sessions will be performed, and the volunteers will be evaluated before and after, by means of the following instruments: Numerical scale of evaluation of pain, Shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI), Pain-Related Catastrophizing Thoughts Scale, being applied the Numerical scale of evaluation of pain at the end of Each session and one month after the end of treatment.

NCT ID: NCT02926443 Completed - Clinical trials for Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

Effectiveness of Supervised Motor Control Exercises on Rotator Cuff Tendinopathies

Start date: January 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body but still has the responsibility of ensuring a strong stability of our upper limbs during daily activities. The shoulder joint therefore requires a significant level of neuromuscular control at all times. The shoulder heavily relies on 4 key stabilizing muscles, known as the rotator cuff complex (RC). A tendinopathy of the RC may cause pain, significant muscle weakness, and a decrease in motor control of the shoulder during functional activities as well as work tasks. Individuals who have an RC tendinopathy often have neuromuscular and proprioceptive deficits. The objectives of this study are to evaluate the effectiveness of a brand new group strength and motor control exercise program for the upper extremities and to compare the effectiveness of this program to usual one-on-one physiotherapy care (such as manual therapy, motion exercises, strengthening, manual techniques) in reducing shoulder pain and improving overall function. A total of 33 participants suffering from an RC tendinopathy have been recruited; 16 have been assigned to the exercise group (EXP) and 17 participants have received usual physiotherapy care (CTL). Participants in the EXP group partook in the new exercise program 3 times / week for 6 weeks whereas participants in the CTL group received usual physiotherapy treatments twice / week with home exercises for 6 weeks. The results of this study will provide clinicians with a cost-effective and innovative treatment approach to treating shoulder pain. This study will provide active rehabilitation guidelines for reducing shoulder pain and the incidence of recurrence.

NCT ID: NCT02870257 Completed - Clinical trials for Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

Effects of Overload Progressive in the Treatment of Shoulder

Start date: August 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Seventy subjects with shoulder impingement syndrome associated with scapular dyskinesis will be recruited and randomized into two groups of treatment. The group "a" will receive a strenghtening protocol with progressive overload during 20 sessions and group "b" will receive the same protocol with minimal load, without change during the 20 sessions. The primary outcomes measures will be pain, function, quality of life, global impression of recovery. The change will be measure from baseline at 10 weeks (after 20 sessions), 3 and 6 months (follow-up). The secundary outcomes will be disability, quality of life measure by other instruments, shoulder muscle strength and scapular 3d kinematic variables. For these data, change will be measure from baseline at 10 weeks (after 20 sessions).

NCT ID: NCT02833779 Completed - Mobility Clinical Trials

Trial to Compare the Effectiveness of Group Versus Individual Therapy on Alternate Days in Patients With Subacromial Impingement Syndrome

Start date: April 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Pathology of the rotator cuff and subacromial bursa is considered to be the principal cause of pain and symptoms arising from the shoulder. Physiotherapy specialists often disagree about which type of exercise is most appropriate. Manual Physiotherapy combined with guided exercise is a commonly applied clinical treatment, but no proof of its effectiveness has been shown. Clinical trials comparing results of treating subacromial syndrome of the shoulder with guided self-treatment and conventional physiotherapy yielded a slightly higher improvement, basically because patients suffered from chronic tendinitis and the treatment period lasted only two weeks. That is the reason why the investigators propose a long-term follow-up study and a more complete assessment of effectiveness of the exercise prescribed to improved this pathology. Objectives: - Assessment of effectiveness of two different types of treatment of subacromial syndrome of the shoulder. - Comparison of effectiveness of both treatments in order to select that one yielding better results as the one to be applied as a routine practice. Patients will be assigned one of the following treatments: - Group 1: patients will be taught exercises in groups of six people, on a daily basis for twelve sessions. - Group 2: patients will be taught the same exercise as Group 1, individually, and will receive manual therapy consisting of muscular and joint re-centering. A modified version of the Constant scale will be used to assess mobility and pain shoulder.

NCT ID: NCT02725749 Completed - Clinical trials for Subacromial Impingement Syndrome

Low Level Laser Therapy Associated With Exercise in Subacromial Impingement Syndrome

Start date: January 2013
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Objectives: The objective was to compare low level laser therapy (LLLT) therapy versus low LLLT therapy in combination with an exercise or exercise only on pain, range of motion (ROM), functionality, and activity limitation in patients with subacromial impact syndrome. Design: Randomized and placebo-controlled clinical trial. Setting: The setting for the study was the Municipal Clinic of Barueri, São Paulo, Brazil. Participants: 60 patients with subacromial impact syndrome were randomly assigned in three groups. Interventions: Group I, experimental (n=21) treated with low level laser therapy and exercises; Group II, experimental (n=21) treated with exercises; and Group III, experimental (n=18) treated with low level laser therapy. Laser used were GaAs (904 nm, 60 mW), in continuous emission. The participants received application of laser three times or week for eight weeks, on 9 shoulder points (3 Joules/point) per session. Main outcome measures: Visual Analogic Scale (VAS) score, Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI), goniometer, Modified-University of California at Los Angeles Shoulder Rating Scale (UCLA), recorded before and after treatment.

NCT ID: NCT02705521 Completed - Clinical trials for Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

Comparing Gamification With Remote Monitoring Against Standard Rehabilitation, for Patients After Arthroscopic Subacromial Decompression Surgery

GAME
Start date: March 29, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This randomised prospective controlled trial will investigate patients with impingement syndrome who undergo arthroscopic subacromial decompression. The intervention group will receive physiotherapy aided by automated sensor-based technology which will help them perform exergames and track their rehabilitation progress. The control group will be treated by standard physiotherapy protocols. The two groups will be compared using patient reported outcome measures and assessment of shoulder range of movement before and after the shoulder surgery. Data will be collected on patient experience, engagement with the rehabilitation process and the usability of the sensor-based technology through the use exergames. This will guide development of methods to quantify patient activation and engagement. Hypothesis: 1. There will be a significant clinical difference in post-surgical improvement measured by patient reported outcomes when physiotherapy is aided by automated sensor-based technology to perform Exergames and track progress, compared to standard physiotherapy protocols. 2. There will be a significant difference in post-surgical improvement in range of shoulder movement and patient improvement, measured by patient reported out-comes when physiotherapy is aided by automated sensor-based technology to perform exergames and track progress, compared to standard physiotherapy protocols.
