Primary | Change in Visual Analog Scale for Pain | A Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain is a commonly used tool to measure the intensity of pain experienced by a patient. It typically consists of a horizontal or vertical line, typically 10 centimeters long, with endpoints labeled as "no pain" and "worst possible pain." The patient is asked to mark on the line the point that best represents the intensity of their pain, with the distance from the "no pain" end of the line to the patient's mark representing the pain score. | First day, after three weeks, after three months | |
Primary | Change in The Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) | The Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) is a validated patient-reported outcome measure that is commonly used to assess pain and functional disability related to shoulder disorders. The SPADI consists of 13 items that assess pain and disability in two domains: 1) pain and 2) disability. The pain domain consists of five items that assess the intensity and frequency of shoulder pain, while the disability domain consists of eight items that assess the impact of shoulder pain on daily activities such as sleeping, dressing, and carrying objects. | First day, after three weeks, after three months | |
Primary | Change in Range Of Motion (ROM) Measurements | ROM of the shoulder joint is typically assessed using a goniometer, a device that measures joint angles. The goniometer is used to measure the degree of movement in different directions, including flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, internal rotation, and external rotation. The measurements obtained from the goniometer can then be used to determine the improvement or deterioration in ROM over time, which can be an indicator of treatment efficacy. | First day, after three weeks, after three months |
