Filter by:Atrophy and weakness of the shoulder are a common problem following treatment of a number of shoulder and elbow pathologies. Even with relatively short periods of reduced activity, the magnitude of muscle loss can be quite substantial.
The purpose of this study was to translate and culturally adapt the MSQ to Turkish language and test the validity and reliability of Turkish version of MSQ in shoulder dysfunction patients. And also, the ultimate goal was to facilitate international researches in shoulder problems as well as to serve the physicians for their clinical practice.
The goal of this study is the evaluation of erector spinae plane (ESP) blocks as an alternative to interscalene brachial plexus nerve blocks for rotator cuff repair and total shoulder arthroplasty procedures. Currently, single shot interscalene nerve blocks are performed for rotator cuff repair surgeries, and interscalene nerve catheters are placed for total shoulder arthroplasty surgeries. Erector spinae plane blocks are commonly used as part of the anesthetic plan for other surgeries, but less so for shoulder surgeries. The investigators would like to study whether an ESP block can provide similar pain control compared to an interscalene nerve block, with less risk of upper extremity motor block and phrenic nerve block.
There is currently no consensus amongst orthopedic specialists on the best way to treat 3- and 4-part proximal humerus fractures. No surgery and surgery with a type of shoulder replacement called a reverse total shoulder arthroplasty are two options that many orthopedists use. This study is being performed to evaluate the differences in short- and long-term pain and functional outcomes between patients who are treated with these two different options.
Interscalene brachial plexus block (ISB) constitutes the analgesic criterion standard for shoulder surgery. However, it is associated with a high incidence of hemidiaphragmatic paralysis (HDP) that may not be tolerated by patients with chronic pulmonary disease. Continuous ISBs have not avoided this complication with the reported and regularly used local anesthetic dilutions (i.e. 0.125% bupivacaine, 0.25% ropivacaine, etc). This observational study will register the incidence of HDP in continuous interscalene block (CISB) using a very diluted solution of levobupivacaine (0.04%) in patients undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery. The main objective of this study is to determine the frequency of HDP the first postoperative day before patient discharge(POD).
Interventions focused on the scapula have been frequently used to treat shoulder pain. However, most studies do not assess the contribution of scapular movement alteration for the symptoms. Objectives: To compare the effects of two interventions for shoulder pain: Scapular Movement Training and General Exercises.
Shoulder injury is a common problem of overhead athletes, as swimmers. It's reported a reduction of side-to-side glenohumeral rotation from 11 to 18 degrees can increase 1.9 points the injury risk, because an alteration in biomechanics can turn lead to clinical findings of impingement and labral pathology. Posterior deltoid is a main muscle for propulsion in swimming stroke. To our knowledge, it isn't known how a posterior deltoid static passive stretch could reduce glenohumeral rotation restriction after swimming competition.
The overall purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of a corticosteroid shoulder injection on glucose levels in insulin-dependent diabetic men and women.
This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the different programmes of four Spanish hospitals about prevention of axillary lymphadenectomy sequels in breast cancer patients.
In this study, patients with upper arm fracture will receive an additive robotic-assisted training using the Armeo®Spring robot for three weeks on the injured arm in addition to conventional physio- and occupational therapy. The supportive treatment and execution of specific exercises on the Armeo®Spring should lead to improved recovery of function and mobility of the upper arm compared to conservatively treated patients.
