Filter by:This study aims to address the existing gap in knowledge by conducting a comprehensive comparison of the incidence of pain and common bile duct injuries in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy using Low pressure pneumoperitoneum versus high pressure pneumoperitoneum.
Irritability was defined by Geoffrey Maitland as the vigor of activity to provoke symptoms, the severity of symptoms, and time for symptoms to subside. Irritability is deeply embedded in the physical therapy clinical decision-making process. However, the mechanisms contributing to irritability are unknown. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to characterize pain sensitivity and pain-related psychological factors by irritability level in individuals with shoulder pain.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the presence and severity of pre-treatment central sensitization on the results of subacromial/ intra-articular shoulder injection in patients with rotator cuff lesion/subacromial impingement. The hypothesis of the study is that the treatment response will decrease in patients with pre-injection central sensitization. There are many studies investigating the frequency of central sensitization in various shoulder pathologies. However, the effect of this condition, which is likely to be associated with chronic pain in these patients, on treatment response is unknown. The effect on the results of shoulder injection, one of the most common procedures in physical therapy practice, will be investigated.
The main objective of this study will be to evaluate the effects of the application of the dry needling technique on the activity of the rotator cuff muscles in the shoulder. The evaluation of the effects of the application of the dry needling technique will be carried out in subjects with and without shoulder pain.To do this, muscle strength, possible thickness changes in the muscle and electromyographic activity will be measured before and immediately after the application of a dry needling technique. Likewise, other variables will be measured such as the pressure pain threshold (PPT), pain with a Numeric Verbal Scale, kinesiophobia and catastrophism, the shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI) and the influence of expectations about dry needling.
In this study, among the patients who applied to the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation outpatient clinic of Muğla Training and Research Hospital and were diagnosed with subacromial impingement by anamnesis and clinical tests, inclusion criteria) and exclusion criteria will be included in the study. Demographic data of the patients will then be recorded. DASH (Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand) and Constant Murley scores will be calculated. 4 years of musculoskeletal ultrasound experience will be recorded by a radiologist using ultrasound (Siemens® V8, LA2-14A probe) in modified Crass position (positioning with the palm of the examined side on the posterior iliac wing) by measuring subacromial bursa thickness, supraspinatus tendon thickness, acromiohumeral distance, supraspinatus tendon thickness/acromiohumeral distance ratio. Demographic data of the patients will then be recorded. DASH (Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand) and Constant Murley scores will be calculated.
The aim of this clinical trial was to demonstrate the effectiveness of the application of ultrasound-guided percutaneous nerve stimulation (US-PENS) directed at the axillary nerve and the suprascapular nerve, in patients with post-surgical shoulder pain. This is a randomized, longitudinal, prospective and quasi-experimental clinical trial in which a total of 70 patients divided into two groups; physiotherapy protocol group (n=35) and experimental group to which the same protocol was practiced and a US-PENS session was added (n=35). The intervention and follow-up period of the participants took place over 12 weeks.
The aim of our study to compare DN and IMES for pressure pain threshold, ROM and the shoulder function in active trigger points with adhesive capsulitis. This study will add to the growing body of knowledge that if these two techniques yield comparable outcomes and if one technique is superior to the other, which should be the alternative of therapy. Moreover, it would add to the society as there are very limited researches done in Pakistan using needling for trigger points in adhesive capsulitis.
Pain, particularly shoulder pain, is a social and economic problem worldwide. Although visceral pathology is not yet taken into account in the diagnosis of these pains, it is likely that on numerous occasions the hepatobiliary visceral condition causes referred pain in the metameric area belonging to the shoulder due to the involvement of the phrenic nerve. Therefore, the aim of this project is to study the response of treatment by neuromodulation of the phrenic nerve for shoulder pain in patients with associated hepatobiliary pathologies, assessing the possible visceral involvement in the symptomatology.
Shoulder pain is a common musculoskeletal problem that increases disability and decreases quality of life in addition to socio-economic impact. Chronic pain is defined as pain lasting longer than three months. Chronic pain is a multidimensional and complex experience. According to this model, chronic pain is a multidimensional and complex experience. This experience may be accompanied by different pain beliefs, pain avoidance behaviours, pain-related fear of movement, anxiety and depression. Many conditions involving the shoulder complex including traumatic and non-traumatic pain, subacromial impingement, postoperative pain, rotator sheath tears, rotator sheath tendinopathy, shoulder arthritis, adhesive capsulitis, shoulder instabilities may lead to pain-related fear of movement. Until now, pain-related fear and avoidance behaviours in patients with shoulder pain have been evaluated with the Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale, Pain Avoidance Beliefs Scale and Fear of Pain Scale. However, only patients with low back pain were included in the development of these scales. There was no scale developed specifically for shoulder pain. To fill this gap in the literature, Ansanello et al. developed the "Avoidance Daily Activities Photo Scale for Patients With Shoulder Pain (ADAP)" scale to evaluate pain avoidance behaviours in individuals with shoulder pain. Cross-cultural adaptation, validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the ADAP scale has not been studied. The aim of our study was to perform cross-cultural adaptation, validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Avoidance of Daily Activities Photo Scale for Patients with Shoulder Pain (ADAP Shoulder Scale).
"Investigating the Development, Validity, and Reliability of the Avoidance of Sports Activities Photo Scale" is crucial in determining the specific functional status of the shoulder joint, especially for overhead athletes experiencing shoulder pain, to identify which sporting activities restrict them the most and to fill the gap in the literature. Additionally, visually indicating activities through photographs will provide visual feedback, making it easier to assess functional status. Our study aims to develop a specific functional survey for the shoulder joint in overhead athletes, examine the validity and reliability of this scale, and contribute to the literature.
