Filter by:Subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) is a dysfunction caused by an impingement of the rotator cuff tendon between the head of the humerus and the acromion as a result of changes in the subacromial space. The patients' symptoms, such as pain, limited joint mobility and reduced strength, may lead to a diagnosis of SIS. The conservative treatment of individuals with SIS is includes analgesics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), steroid injections and physiotherapy. Ultrasound therapy is one of the common physiotherapy applications for SIS, but its effectiveness is controversial. Phonophoresis is a combination of ultrasound therapy and medical therapy. In phonophoresis, a medicine in gel form is used as a transmitter with ultrasound instead of the aquatic conductor gel. It was hypothesized that ultrasound waves favoring the penetration of an anti-inflammatory drug would lead to an improved response to the treatment of SIS. However, the effectiveness of ultrasound modes (pulsed or continuous) can be used in phonophoresis is debatable. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of ultrasound therapy, pulsed mode ultrasound and continuous mode ultrasound phonophoresis in patients with SIS.
Subacromial Impingement Syndrome (SIS) is one of the musculoskeletal system problems. SIS, which is the most common cause of shoulder pain, constitutes 44-65% of complaints of shoulder pain. Studies have shown that exercise is effective in treating patients with SIS, but the effectiveness and superiority of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) to each other is uncertain. NMES is widely applied in physiotherapy. In the SIS, the lower trapezius and serratus anterior muscle are affected. Therefore, our aim is to determine the effects of exercises and NMES used in patients with SIS on pain, range of motion (ROM), muscle strength and functional status, neck pain and sleep quality.
The purpose of this study is to investigate and compare the long term effects of traditional and modified static cross-body posterior shoulder stretching training in individuals with subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) having glenohumeral internal rotation deficit (GIRD). Modified cross body posterior shoulder stretching group will receive static stretching in the modified cross-body stretching position and standard physiotherapy program. The traditional cross body posterior shoulder stretching group will receive static stretching and standard physiotherapy program. The Control group will receive only sham stretching and standard physiotherapy program.
To investigate if glenohumeral arthroscopy and arthroscopic subacromial decompression is more effective than glenohumeral arthroscopy alone in improving patient-reported outcome at 12 months in patients with subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) who are non-responders to non-operative treatment.
This study conducted to see the effect of adding mobilization with movement to conventional physical therapy to the subject with shoulder impingement syndrome. The shoulder impingement syndrome is often described as anterior lateral shoulder pain that provoked during shoulder elevation. The pain occurs during shoulder elevation and causes limited range of motion. Moreover, the patients with shoulder impingement syndrome commonly had a forward head posture and slouching shoulder. There is a theory that illustrates the mechanical factors lead to the injury of the bursa or rotator cuff tendons below the subacromial space which is highly related to the posture and scapular movement. Various treatments for shoulder impingement syndrome including medical treatments such as anti-inflammatory drugs, subacromial decompression, and acromion resection surgery. Conventional physical therapy treatments for shoulder impingement syndrome included modalities, exercises and manual therapy. Exercise has been showed to give a significant effect to decrease the pain intensity, increasing the range of motion and shoulder function. There is evidence that supports the use of manual therapy on shoulder impingement, the recent technique introduced by Brian Mulligan is mobilization with movement. Mobilization with movement is a manual therapy technique that uses the active movement while the physical therapist applies an accessory force to align the positional fault of the joint. A previous study investigated the effect of mobilization with movement that uses the mobilization with movement in shoulder impingement syndrome showed different outcomes in the measurement of pain intensity and shoulder range of motion. As the posture may be related to shoulder impingement syndrome, this research will measure the cervical posture, shoulder posture, and muscle strength. Therefore, the purposes of this study will be to compare the effects of conventional physical therapy treatments and the conventional therapy treatments plus the mobilization with movement on pain intensity, shoulder range of motion, cervical and shoulder posture, shoulder muscle strength and shoulder function. The study hypothesis was that mobilization with movement is more effective in improving the investigated outcomes in individuals with shoulder impingement syndrome than the conventional physical therapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine if intravenous TXA is a safe alternative to epinephrine in improving arthroscopic shoulder visualization. Primary Objectives 1. Determine that patients given intravenous tranexamic acid improves surgeon-rated visualization compared to placebo. 2. Determine that intravenous tranexamic acid is a safe alternative to epinephrine mixed irrigation fluid to improve arthroscopic shoulder visualization
In this study, we aimed to evaluate the short-term effects of conservative physiotherapy in the subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) and its relation to the acromion morphology.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of 448 kHz capacitive resistive monopolar radiofrequency in the treatment of subacromial syndrome.
Subacromial Impingement Syndrome (SIS) is a pathology resulting from mechanical repetitive compression and inflammation of the supraspinatus tendon, subacromial bursa and biceps tendon under the acromion and the coracoacromial ligament. It is the most common cause of shoulder pain, with an incidence of 44-65%. Restriction of the range of motion, along with the pain in the anterior region of the shoulder, is the main reason for disability and decreased quality of life in patients with SIS. Physical exercises to improve the range of motion, strengthening, and flexibility is the main part of treatment. The subacromial-subdeltoid bursa corticosteroid injection is shown to decrease pain during the exercise program and increase participation in the treatment. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of a supervised exercise program and home-based exercise program after subacromial-subdeltoid bursa corticosteroid injection in patients with SIS.
The aim of this study is to determine the effects of high intensity laser therapy (HILT) in patients with subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS). This study aims to compare the effects of HILT alone and HILT and therapeutic exercise combination on shoulder pain, ROM, joint position sense (JPS), muscle strength and function.The investigators hypothesized that shoulder pain, ROM, JPS, muscle strength and functionality would improve with both treatments but that HILT combined with exercise would result in better outcomes than HILT alone.
