Shoulder Impingement SyndromeSubacromial Impingement Syndrome

This randomised prospective controlled trial will investigate patients with impingement syndrome who undergo arthroscopic subacromial decompression. The intervention group will receive physiotherapy aided by automated sensor-based technology which will help them perform exergames and track their rehabilitation progress. The control group will be treated by standard physiotherapy protocols. The two groups will be compared using patient reported outcome measures and assessment of shoulder range of movement before and after the shoulder surgery. Data will be collected on patient experience, engagement with the rehabilitation process and the usability of the sensor-based technology through the use exergames. This will guide development of methods to quantify patient activation and engagement. Hypothesis: There will be a significant clinical difference in post-surgical improvement measured by patient reported outcomes when physiotherapy is aided by automated sensor-based technology to perform Exergames and track progress, compared to standard physiotherapy protocols. There will be a significant difference in post-surgical improvement in range of shoulder movement and patient improvement, measured by patient reported out-comes when physiotherapy is aided by automated sensor-based technology to perform exergames and track progress, compared to standard physiotherapy protocols.

The Influence of a Cognitive Behavioral Approach on Changing Patient Expectations in Shoulder Pain...

Rotator Cuff Impingement SyndromeRotator Cuff Injury1 more

Background: Despite similar treatment outcomes for surgery or conservative care, the number of surgeries for the care of rotator cuff (RTC) related shoulder pain has increased. With the increase in surgery, there is an increased risk of harms, increased costs, and high re-tear rates. Patient expectations are beliefs or attitudes that include pre-treatment thoughts and beliefs regarding the need for specific treatment methods and the timing and intensity of these methods. Brief interventions designed to alter and enhance treatment expectations for conservative care and have been shown to improve patient expectations, but to date, no studies have explored whether such interventions can influence patient decisions to pursue surgical care. The investigators propose a comprehensive intervention that involves Patient Engagement Education, and Restructuring of Cognitions (PEERC) that is designed to change expectations, will reduce the likelihood that patients will choose to have shoulder surgery and improve functional outcomes. The cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) approaches that form the core of our PEERC protocol are patient-centered and are designed to empower the patient in their own recovery process. Purpose/Aims: To examine the effect of the PEERC protocol on the decision to have surgery (primary), and improve global well-being, pain catastrophizing, pain, functional outcomes, and follow up expectations (secondary).

Acupuncture Treatment of Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

Shoulder Pain

The main objective of the current study was to assess the analgesic effect achieved to short- and medium-term by the use of acupuncture on individuals with impingement syndrome of the shoulder, in comparison to the use of acupuncture at sham points. Furthermore, secondary objectives were also sought, such as the short- to medium-term functional recovery of the affected joint, knowing the possible influence that this has over the recovery of the laterality of the subject, as well as the development of a protocol to select points to treat pain affecting the shoulder area.

This study evaluates the immediate and short-term effects of a supine upper thoracic spine thrust manipulation, seated upper thoracic spine thrust manipulation, and sham manipulation for individuals with subacromial pain syndrome. The participants were randomized to receive one of the three interventions and baseline measures for the dependent variables were repeated immediately after the delivery of the intervention.

Effects of Cryotherapy on Joint Function and Pressure Pain Threshold in Patients With Subacromial...

PainInflammation

Background: Subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) is a chronic and disabling disease, characterized by compression and mechanical abrasion of the tendons of the rotator cuff muscles, subacromial bursa and tendon of the long head of the biceps against the anterior surface of the acromion, coracoacromial ligament or the acromioclavicular joint during arm elevation movement. After the trauma, inflammatory processes initiate and may lead to loss of function when untreated. This inflammation leads the release of cytokines (IL-6, IL-10, IL-1β and TNF-α) whose acts as inflammatory mediators. Physical therapy works in treating SIS with the goal of reducing pain and inflammatory process. Cryotherapy is widely used in physical therapy by anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, low cost, effectiveness and easy application. Objective: The aim of the study is to evaluate the effects of a cryotherapy protocol, applied on shoulder of subjects with SIS, on serum inflammatory mediators (cytokines) and local pressure pain threshold. Possible changes in function and pain will also be evaluated. Materials and Methods: 30 subjects will be selected and share in two groups, 15 healthy subjects and 15 subjects with SIS. Function assessments and quality of life will be held using the DASH and WORC questionnaires. Cryotherapy will be applied for 4 consecutive days, lasting 20 minutes without interruption through ice pack over the shoulder of SIS carriers. For the blood samples, 20ml of blood will be collected at the first and last day of the intervention, and then stored at -80 ° C.
