Active clinical trials for "Shoulder Impingement Syndrome"

The aim of this study is therefore to examine the clinical effectiveness and provide an economic analysis of individual versus group physiotherapy, following corticosteroid injection, for management of Subacromial Impingement (SAI) of the shoulder.

The purpose of this study is to investigate if stretching the contralateral sacroiliac (SI) joint improves GIRD in baseball players. Additionally, we aimed to compare our SI joint stretching regiment with a classically described sleeper stretch routine.

Aim of the study was to compare the effectiveness of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) exercises and Shoulder Mobilization (SM) on pain, range of motion (ROM), functionality, and muscle strength in patients with Subacromial Impingement Syndrome (SIS). Patients received 20 sessions (for 4 weeks) under the supervision of a physiotherapist. Patients were evaluated at baseline, at week two, at week four, and at week sixteen.

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 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.

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.

Various stretches are used to lengthen the posterior shoulder capsule. No study has reported the comparison of the pragmatic posterior capsular stretch and cross body stertch

the current study tends to compare the effect of two different treatment techniques used in the rehabilitation of shoulder impingement syndrome. rigid tapping and scapular stabilizing exercises will be applied and the level of function and pain intensity will be measured before and after the intervention and at 3 months follow up. while both methods of treatment used previously, the comparison between their effects is not yet investigated and no data is available regarding the superiority of one over the other.

Comparative study between pulsed radiofrequency in suprascapular nerve or bupivacaine block for chronic shoulder pain

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of ESWT applied to trigger points on pain, function, and effusion in individuals diagnosed with shoulder impingement syndrome. Material and methods: This was a randomized controlled clinical trial with a total of 32 which were randomly divided into two equal groups (ESWT Group (EG), n = 16; Control Group (CG), n=16). The participants in the EG were given Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy to the trigger point of the patients with a trigger point in one of the supraspinatus, subscapularis and infraspinatus muscles for a total of 5 sessions in 3 weeks (2 sessions in the first week, 2 sessions in the second week, 1 session in the third week) in addition to conventional treatment while CG received only conventional treatments for five days per week for 3 consecutive weeks. The primary outcome was pain intensity Visual analog scale (VAS). Secondary measurements were Tendon thickness and effusion with Ultrasound, Range of motion (ROM), Manual muscle testing (MMT), Corbin posture analysis, Constant Murley Score (CMS), Arm Shoulder and Hand Problems Questionnaire (DASH). Supraspinatus tendon thickness and effusion of the cases included in the study were evaluated by ultrasonography before and after the treatment(3 weeks) by the same specialist physician who was blind to the groups. Normal joint range of motion by universal goniometer, muscle strength by manual muscle test, posture evaluation by Corbin posture analysis, pain evaluation by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), functional evaluation by Constant Murley Score (CMS), Arm Shoulder and Hand Problems Questionnaire (DASH) by physiotherapist It was evaluated before and after the treatment (3 weeks).
