Filter by:Isolated and combined effectiveness of pragmatic protocols on shoulder range of motion had been investigated and found effective in healthy participants. To our knowledge, there was insufficient literature to support the comparison between pragmatic and traditional protocols in the treatment of shoulder pathologies.
The purpose of the proposed work is to screen the effectiveness of an evidence-based, targeted, treatment intervention versus a non-specific, generalized, treatment intervention to treat symptomatic shoulder instability in collegiate swimmers. The results of the study will allow direct observation of treatment effects designed to mitigate the effects of symptomatic shoulder instability. These results will facilitate the optimization of future treatments and interventions.
The purpose of this pilot study is to validate the safety, reliability and usability of FLOAT medical device, a prototypal robotic system for the rehabilitation of the shoulder, designed and developed in the Rehab Technologies IIT-INAIL Lab to fulfil the needs orthopaedic conditions. The acceptance from patients and therapists will be assessed after a single session of robotic therapy in a sample of injured workers suffering from post-traumatic or post-surgical shoulder disorders.
The main objective of this study is whether preloading before positioning would be effective for less hemodynamic instability. The study also analyzes that patients with preloading will decrease postoperative nausea and vomiting, better surgical satisfaction and shortened the duration of surgery and anesthesia.
Background: To compare the pre-season clinical measures with shoulder rotator strength and range of motion between bilateral (swimmers) and unilateral (badminton players) overhead athletes. Design: Prospective cohort study Participants: 42 athletes were enrolled including 24 elite badminton players and 18 elite swimmers Independent variables: A pre-season visit consisted in clinical and isokinetic shoulder strength testing. Clinical testing consisted in the shoulder range of motion (ROM) measurements aIsokinetic internal and external rotator shoulder muscles strength was tested at 60. Conventional and functional (eccentric-to-concentric) ratios (FR) were calculated.
This study is an observational cross-sectional study. Post-operative patients need an immobilization period for a certain period of time after surgery. Kinetic chain changes due to immobilization can affect the symmetry of the core muscle. Therefore, in this study, core muscle asymmetry (CMA) is measured using a whole body tilt device for inpatients who have undergone arthroscopic shoulder surgery. We would like to make a clinical suggestion for post-operative rehabilitation by identifying the characteristics of CMA according to the left or right site.
Background: To assess the impact of pre-season clinical measures and rotator muscles strength on the risk of significant shoulder injury (SSI) in elite badminton players Design: Prospective cohort study Participants: Nineteen elite adolescents badminton players were included and followed over the badminton season (from september 2018 to may 2019 and/or from september 2019 to may 2020) . Independent variables: A pre-season visit consisted in clinical and isokinetic shoulder strength testing. Clinical testing consisted in the shoulder range of motion (ROM) measurements and the table-to-acromion distance (TAD)Isokinetic internal and external rotator shoulder muscles strength was tested at 60 and 240°/s. Conventional and functional (eccentric-to-concentric) ratios (FR) were calculated. SSI collection was performed by an experienced sport physician.
Background: Glenohumeral internal rotation deficit (GIRD) is believed to be one of the risk factors contributing to shoulder injuries. In addition, athletes with GIRD of greater than 20° appear to be at a greater risk for the shoulder injuries and surgery. Recently, GIRD can be divided in anatomical GIRD and pathological GIRD (pGIRD). The dominant arm of the athletes with pGIRD have not only humeral retrotorsion (HR) but also stiffer posterior capsule. The soft-tissue effect is believed to be the key point in pathological cascade of throwers. Therefore, the previous studies use gross GIRD as a risk factor may be modified by ultrasound-guide corrected GIRD. Objective: There are 4 objectives for the present study: (1) to investigate the Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of the gross GIRD; (2) to investigate the ROC curves of the ultrasound-guide corrected GIRD; (3) to compare the area under curve (AUC) of the two methods; (4) to compare the gross GIRD and the ultrasound-guide corrected GIRD in baseball players. Design: Baseball players who have played baseball for at least 1 year and still active in training or competition will be recruited in this study. Participant characteristics will be collected by the main assessor, including age, gender, height, weight, dominant arm, practice time, years of playing baseball. Performance/function will be assessed via a Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic shoulder and elbow (KJOC) self-report questionnaire. The shoulder rotation ROM, ultrasound examination including ultrasound-corrected GIRD and posterior capsular thickness and posterior shoulder tightness will also be measured. we will follow subjects for a season. Once the injury occurs, deterioration or at the end of the season, we will collect the data again. Main outcome measures: The shoulder rotation ROM, ultrasound examination and posterior shoulder tightness are main outcomes of the study.
Background: To assess the impact of pre-season clinical measures and rotator muscles strength on the risk of significant shoulder injury (SSI) in elite adolescent badminton players Design: Prospective cohort study Participants: Nine elite adolescents badminton players were included and followed from September 2018 to May 2019. Independent variables: A pre-season visit consisted in clinical and isokinetic shoulder strength testing. Isokinetic internal and external rotator shoulder muscles strength was tested at 60, 120 and 240°/s. Conventional and functional (eccentric-to-concentric) ratios (FR) were calculated. SSI collection was performed by an experienced sport physician.
Accidental vaccine injection into adjunct shoulder structures can cause tissue damage, termed Shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA). The immunopathological mechanisms and consequences of SIRVA are unknown. The study assesses the clinical and immunological consequences of an influenza vaccine if accidentally administered in periarticular space.
