5. Study Description

Brief Summary
the aim of this study is to investigate the Effect of mulligan technique on sub-acromial space in patients with shoulder impingement syndrome
Detailed Description
Shoulder Impingement Syndrome (SIS) is defined as the mechanical entrapment of the rotator cuff (mainly the supraspinatus tendon) or the sub-acromial bursa in the sub-acromial space between the humeral head and the acromion or coracohumeral ligament .It is typically exacerbate when the arm is elevated or when overhead throwing activities are performed . Mulligan technique is a type of manual therapy with hypoalgesic effects, increases joint ROM, enhances muscle function and treats specific pathologies. Mobilization with movement (MWM) can be defined as the application of a sustained passive accessory force / glide to a joint while the patient actively performs a task that was previously identified as being problem.

8. Arms, Groups, and Interventions

Arm Title

Arm Description
the patient will receive Shoulder complex mobilization with movement three time a week for two weeks
Arm Title
Group B
Arm Type
Active Comparator
Arm Description
will receive Conventional therapy three times a week for two weeks.
Intervention Type
Other
Intervention Name(s)
mulligan technique
Intervention Description
The patient will be in sitting and the therapist stands on the contralateral side of pain, stabilizing the scapula posteriorly with one hand. The head of the humerus is translated posteriorly and laterally with the other hand, along the plane of the glenoid fossa. While the glide is sustained, the patient actively elevates their arm through the plane of abduction or scaption (elevation). Apply 6-10 repetitions in a set, with 3-5 sets in a treatment session the perform mobilization on acromioclavicular and sternoclavicular joint
Intervention Type
Other
Intervention Name(s)
conventional therapy
Intervention Description
Flexibility exercises: enhance flexibility of the glenohumeral Posterior capsule, pectoralis muscle, and upper thoracic spine. Strengthen the rotator cuff and scapular stabilizers. Improve upper-quarter postural awareness
Primary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
sub-acromial space
Description
sub-acromial space will be measured by ultrasonography
Time Frame
up to two weeks
Secondary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
shoulder range of movement
Description
shoulder range of motion will be measured by digital goniometer
Time Frame
up to two weeks
Other Pre-specified Outcome Measures:
Title
pressure pain threshold
Description
pressure algometer will be used to measure pressure pain threshold
Time Frame
up to two weeks
Title
shoulder function
Description
quick DASH will be used to measure shoulder function. DASH is a shortened version of the DASH questionnaire that uses 11 items to measure the degree of difficulty in performing various physical activities due to a shoulder, arm, or hand problem (6 items); the severity of pain and tingling (2 items); and the problem's effect on social activities, work, and sleep (3 items).
Time Frame
up to two weeks
