Manual Therapy Group

Telerehabilitation Supported Group

Arm Description

The home exercise program will be explained to the patients in the control group by the physiotherapist and the relevant brochures will be delivered to the patients. Home exercise program will take 30-45 min. İt will be applied 5 days a week for 8 weeks. Patients will receive a reminder message from the physiotherapist once a week.

Patients in the Manual Therapy Group will receive one-to-one physiotherapy sessions in the hospital 2 days a week for 8 weeks. In these sessions, soft tissue and joint mobilizations and exercises will be applied by physiotherapist.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change from Baseline in Pain at 8 weeks and 12 weeks
Visual Analog Scale will be used where patients will be asked to rate their pain on a scale from 0 to 10 with 0 indicating no pain and 10 the maximum worst pain.
Change from Baseline in Short-Form Mcgill Pain questionnaire (SF-MPQ) at 8 weeks and 12 weeks
The McGill Pain questionnaire will be used to evaluate a person experiencing significant pain.. The pain rating index has 2 subscales: Sensory subscale with 11 words Affective subscale with 4 words from the original MPQ. These words or items are rated on an intensity scale as 0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate and 3 = severe.
Change from Baseline in Posture Analysis at 8 weeks and 12 weeks
Corbin posture analysis will be used. This form include lateral and posterior analyzes. Physiotherapist marks between 0 = none 3= severe point to disorders. Total score will calculate excellent = 0-2 to Poor = 12 or more
Change from Baseline in range of motion of the shoulder at 8 weeks and 12 weeks
Range of motion of the shoulder will be evaluated with a standard goniometer.
Kibler classification for changes in position and scapular movements at 8 weeks and 12 weeks
Kibler classification will be use assessment of Scapular Dyskinesia. Identifying changes in position and scapular movements that predispose to shoulder injuries. Identifying the type of abnormal scapular movement: type I, type II and type III.
Lateral Scapular Slide test at 8 weeks and 12 weeks
Lateral Scapular Slide test will be use assessment of Scapular Dyskinesia. The Measurement should not vary more than 1 to 1.5 cm, more the 1.5 cm difference significant.
Change from Baseline in Glenohumeral internal rotation deficit (GIRD) at 8 weeks and 12 weeks
GIRD is a condition resulting in the loss of internal rotation of the glenohumeral joint as compared to the contralateral side.
Change from Baseline in Subacromial space at 8 weeks.
Subacromial space will be measured from radiographic results. Subacromial space is defined by the humeral head inferiorly, the anterior edge and under surface of the anterior third of the acromion, coracoacromial ligament and the acromioclavicular joint superiorly Interposed between these two osseous structures are the rotator cuff tendons.
Change from Baseline in Critical Shoulder Angle (CSA) at 8 weeks.
CSA will be measured by MRI results. CSA is the angle between the plane of the glenoid fossa (the line from the inferior edge of the glenoid to the superior edge of the glenoid) and a line drawn from the inferior edge of the glenoid to the lateral edge of the acromion.
Change from Baseline in Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (QuickDASH) at 8 weeks and 12 weeks
QuickDASH will be used for assessing functional ability of the patients. The QuickDASH uses 11 items to measure physical function and symptoms in people with any or multiple musculoskeletal disorders of the upper limb.
Change from Baseline in The Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI)at 8 weeks and 12 weeks
The SPADI will be used to assess shoulder pain and dysfunction. It consists of 13 items that assess two different areas. The first five items measure the pain, and the next eight items assess patient's disability.
Patient Satisfaction questionnaire at 8 weeks.
The Patient Satisfaction questionnaire will be used to assess the patient's satisfaction with the treatment received. Patient Satisfaction questionnaire (PSQ) contains 18 items tapping each of the seven dimensions of satisfaction with medical care measured by the PSQ-18.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of supervised exercise therapy with active soft tissue and joint mobilization. The effectiveness of telerehabilitation- active mobilization and exercises in the evaluation of pain and function in patients with subacromial pain syndrome will be examined and compared with face-to-face treatment, which is passive manual therapy.
Detailed Description
Shoulder pain is common in the population. Various treatment modalities are used. Due to the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19), the problems in patients' access to hospitals and rehabilitation services caused telerehabilitation to be on the agenda. Telerehabilitation can be summarized as the delivery of rehabilitation services to those in need by using communication technologies. This method covers the steps of evaluation, monitoring, prevention, intervention, control, training, and consultation. In addition, as a new treatment application, its effectiveness will be measured in patients with shoulder pain.
