Filter by:High intensity laser therapy (HILT) has been considered as a treatment option for shoulder pain. In randomized controlled studies with high-intensity laser therapy (HILT), there are publications showing its effectiveness in conditions such as shoulder pathologies such as subacromial impigment syndrome and adhesive capsulitis. However, there are few studies in the literature that focus on the effectiveness of HILT, especially in hemiplegic shoulder pain. In this study, we intended to investigate the effectiveness of HILT on pain, disability, function and quality of life in patients with HSP accompanied by PTRCT.
Introduction: hemiplegic shoulder pain (HSP) in a common post-stroke condition, that can lead to poor motor and functional recovery and lower quality of life. Interventions like intra-articular corticosteroid injection (ICI) and suprascapularis nerve (SSN) pulsed radiofrecuenfy treatment (PRF) has been used to treat the pain. Methods: in this single-center, prospective, randomized controlled study, we included 20 consecutive patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain in subacute stroke phase (2-12 months after diagnosis). Subjects were randomly assigned to the PRF (SSN and shoulder joint) and ICI treatment groups (n = 10 in each). Primary outcome is hemiplegic shoulder pain severity, measured by numeric rating scale, active shoulder range of motion and Fugl-Meyer upper limb assessment. Secondary outcome is shoulder joint and cervicocephalic kinesthetic sensibility. Outcome measurements were assessed at baseline and one, two and six months after each procedure.
This study is a randomized controlled trial conducted to compare the effects of synchronous and asynchronous telerehabilitation programs on pain, disability, and quality of life parameters in patients with shoulder tendinopathy in the Marmara University Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Department.
This randomized, single blinded, clinical trial aims to investigate the efficacy of a multimodal pain control regimen for shoulder arthroplasty. Patients who receive a multimodal pain control regimen alone (study group) will be compared to patients who receive a multimodal pain control regimen plus a standard prescription of an opioid containing medication (comparison group). The primary outcome is average daily Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) pain score in the first 10 days after surgery. We hypothesize that there will be no significant difference in the primary outcome between the two groups.
The aim of this study was to investigate predictors of nociplastic shoulder pain. Factors of psychological distress, functionality, fitness, quality of life, quality of sleep, functioning of the parasympathetic system, and lifestyle will be examined. Patients with nociplastic pain will be identified using the classification system proposed by the IASP.
The aim of this study will be to compare the effectiveness of an exercise therapy program with extracorporeal shockwave therapy, ultrasound-guided percutaneous irrigation and a wait and see approach in people with rotator cuff calcific tendinopathy.
Latissimus dorsi transfer is an established treatment option with favorable results in massive, irreparable rotator cuff tears, however, it is controversial if earlier motion is detrimental or beneficial to the postoperative goal of reduced pain and improved clinical outcomes. Therefore, the aim of this study is to compare the effects of slow and accelerated rehabilitation protocols after latissimus dorsi transfer in massive, irreparable rotator cuff tears.
Postoperative analgesia after shoulder surgery remains a challenge in patients with preexisting pulmonary pathology, as interscalene brachial plexus block (ISB), the standard nerve block for shoulder surgery, carries a prohibitive risk of hemidiaphragmatic paralysis (HDP). Although several diaphragm-sparing nerve blocks have been proposed, none seems to offer equivalent analgesia to ISB while avoiding HDP altogether. For instance, even costoclavicular blocks, which initially fulfilled both requirements, were subsequently found to result in a non-negligible 5%-incidence of HDP. In this randomized trial, the authors set out to compare ISB and combined infraclavicular block-anterior suprascapular nerve blocks (ICB-ASSNB) for patients undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery. The authors hypothesized that ICB-ASSNB would provide equivalent postoperative analgesia to ISB 30 minutes after shoulder surgery and therefore designed the current study as an equivalence trial.
The primary goal of this study is to translate and culturally adapt the Oxford Shoulder Score Scale into Urdu, as well as to assess its reliability and validity in the Urdu-speaking Pakistani community. This research will also look at the relationship between Oxford Shoulder Score Scale and the Shoulder Pain And Disability Index and Short Form - 36 scores for shoulder pain.
As the head and neck cancer (HNC) survival rate has increased and therefore, the focus of post-treatments is to improve the quality of patients' life by decreasing the side effects. Treatment of HNC leads to acute and chronic soft tissue damage, and functional loss. However, patients with HNC need having rehabilitation throughout the post-treatment phase so as to improve functional outcomes because of the long term side effects. Chronic shoulder morbidity is one of the complications after surgery due to spinal accesory nerve injury. Moreover, pain, dysphonia, and musculoskeletal impairments are observed in the individuals after the treatments and the patients also have trouble swallowing problems, loss of taste, dry mouth, trismus, nausea, vomiting, and fatigue during and after therapy. Since there is limited research on the usage of manual therapy techniques in HNC patients, this study aims to investigate muscle changes after surgery and the effectiveness of physiotherapy on muscle material behaviour from a biomechanical perspective by using shear wave elastography. In this respect, the hypothesis is: H0: Physical therapy interventions do not impact mechanical properties of muscle, pain, quality of life, cervical and shoulder functionality in HNC patients after neck dissection. H1: Physical therapy interventions will improve mechanical properties of muscle, pain, quality of life, cervical and shoulder functionality in HNC patients after neck dissection.
