Filter by:Physiotherapy-led exercises is the first line treatment for patients with subacromial pain. However, current evidence report that most treatment programmes only show a short-term benefit. There seem to be a potential for enhancing the effectiveness of exercise interventions by improving adherence to self-managed exercises, but there is lack of knowledge about adherence to exercise programmes in shoulder pain. Before conducting a planned randomised controlled trial on the clinical effectiveness of an intervention focusing on adherence to a self-managed exercise strategy (the Ad-Shoulder intervention), it is necessary to run a feasibility study in order to establish whether such a resource-demanding trial is worthwhile. Feasibility studies are designed to answer the key question "Can it work?" The main objectives of the present study was to assess the feasibility in terms of recruitment capability, data collection procedures and acceptability of the Ad-Shoulder intervention in patients with subacromial pain receiving treatment in primary or secondary health care.
Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD) is a recent diagnosis that covers generalised joint hypermobility with one or more secondary symptomatic musculoskeletal manifestations. Current clinical management of this population with shoulder symptoms is based on limited evidence and includes a combination of non-specific physiotherapy modalities and exercise prescription. There is some evidence suggesting that strength training may be valuable for treatment of this patient-group. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a heavy shoulder strengthening exercise programme in patients with HSD and shoulder symptoms.
This study was performed to investigate the immediate effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and high voltage pulsed stimulation (HVPS) on resting pain and pain-free range of shoulder motion (pfROM) in patients with subacromial pain syndrome (SAPS).
Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders (HSD) is a recent diagnosis that covers joint hypermobility with one or more secondary symptomatic musculoskeletal manifestations. Current clinical management of this population with shoulder symptoms is a non-standardized combination of physiotherapy modalities including exercise prescription. There is evidence suggesting that progressive heavy resistance training increases muscle strength and tendon stiffness, which may be valuable for treatment of this population. The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of progressive heavy shoulder resistance training (PHSRT) for adults with HSD and shoulder symptoms.
This project aims to study the impacts of self-thoracic spine and rib mobilization on sleep quality in patients who present to UTSW physicians with shoulder pain. The investigators plan to randomize participants into treatment and control groups, but the investigators will provide education on sleep hygiene for each group. The treatment group will also receive instruction to mobilize their thoracic spine and ribs each night before going to sleep.
The investigators aimed to evaluate the short-term efficacy of High Intensity LASER Therapy (HILT) and Ultrasound (US) treatment in chronic shoulder pain. It's a prospective, randomized, controlled, single blind study.141 patients were randomized into two groups, as HILT (n=71) and US (n=70) groups. HILT or US treatment was applied to the patients in addition to 14 sessions of Hotpack (Hp) + Balneotherapy + Exercise treatment. Pre-treatment (Pre-T), Post-treatment 1st day (Post-T1st day) and Post-T findings for the 30th day (Post-T 30th day) were recorded using the visual analog scale (VAS) and shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI) scoring.
The goal of this research study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of a new implanted device designed to treat chronic shoulder pain in chronic post-stroke subjects. The BBPM weighs less than 0.03 ounces and measures 1" x 0.1". It is implanted into the shoulder to stimulate the axillary nerve. Stimulation of this nerve may reduce shoulder pain, reduce shoulder subluxation, improve motion, improve function, and decrease use of pain medication. CAUTION--Investigational device. Limited by Federal law to investigational use.
