Shoulder Pain Chronic Clinical Trial
Official title:
Shoulder Exercises in Patients With Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder and Long-lasting Shoulder Symptoms: A Randomised Controlled Trial
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.
Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD) is a recent diagnosis that covers generalised joint hypermobility with one or more secondary symptomatic musculoskeletal manifestations such as chronic shoulder pain and shoulder instability. The evidence for treatment is sparse, but current clinical management of this patient-group with persistent shoulder symptoms is 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. The intervention consisting of heavy shoulder strengthening exercises has recently been tested to be feasible, and since clinical improvements were seen, the intervention is ready to be studied in a randomised controlled trial. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a heavy shoulder strengthening exercise programme and general advice as compared to shoulder stability exercises and general advice (current standard care) in patients with HSD and persistent shoulder symptoms. The primary hypothesis is that a heavy shoulder strengthening exercise programme is superior to standard care. Sample size considerations: a clinically significant effect of 252 points or more out of 2100 points (SD = 350 points) between the two groups over the 16 weeks is desired, which with a two-sided significance of 0.05, a power of 0.9, and 16% dropout, requires a total of 100 patients. In case 100 patients are not included within 24 months, a stopping rule will be applied as soon as at least 76 patients are included, corresponding to a power of minimum 0.8. ;
