PROJECT SUMMARY Shoulder pain is secondary only to lower back pain in occurrence. Impingement is one of the most common shoulder disorders. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of kinetic chain exercises on pain, ROM and disability in patients with shoulder impingement syndrome which is important in establishing eveidence for a holistic and potentially more effective rehabilitation method for shoulder impingement syndrome. This study will be a randomized control trial and will be conducted in Riphah International University associated hospital and physiotherapy outpatient department of Jinnah hospital Lahore. Non probability consecutive sampling will be used. Sample size of 32 subjects with age group 30 to 50 years will be taken. Data will be collected from patients having present complaint of shoulder pain due to shoulder impingement. Outcome measures will be taken using numeric pain rating scale(NPRS) for pain, universal Goniometer for ROM and Shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI) for function. An informed consent will be taken. Subjects will be selected on the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria and will be equally divided into two groups. Group A will receive kinetic chain exercises (both open and closed chain exercises) and group B will receive conventional physical therapy treatment. Data analysis will be done by SPSS version 28

NCT06435494
This research project aims to test if systematic (extensive) use of patient-reported outcomes across treatment boundaries can 1. improve patients' and health professionals' understanding of individual patients' conditions and health changes, 2. improve indications for treatment, 3. strengthen patient empowerment, and 4. reduce patients' utilization of health services. The study will be performed in the particular context of patients with chronic degenerative conditions of the shoulder. These patients are characterized by contact with numerous health professionals from different health sectors, such as general practitioner, physiotherapists and surgical referral centres, which challenges coherence and communication for the individual treatment decisions. The research project will be performed as a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with a 1-year inclusion period and two years of follow-up.
NCT06754592
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of dynamic high-resolution ultrasonography in identifying various abnormalities of the shoulder impingement syndrome, especially the subacromial type, and to determine the added value of dynamic ultrasonography compared to static examination of such cases. Furthermore, we will compare these findings to MRI, which we regard as the standard in our cases.
NCT06713005
Chronic shoulder pain due to impingement syndrome and supraspinatus tendinosis is a debilitating condition. Suprascapular nerve innervates most part of shoulder joint. Supraspinatus nerve block can be used as a part of pain therapy. However, its efficacy is short-lasting. To prolong analgesia, short bursts of electrical stimulation to suprascapular nerve may be applied. To the date there is no consensus about duration of these type of stimulation. Investigators' aim is to investigate efficacy of two different duration of stimulation (pulsed radiofrequency) on chronic shoulder pain.
NCT06195956
The goal of this clinical trial study is to investigate the effect of performing lower limb kinetic chain exercise on muscle activation of scapular muscle strength ratio in patients with shoulder impingement. the main question it aims to answer is: Does the addition of lower limb kinetic chain exercise to a shoulder exercise program improve scapular muscles strength ratio in patients with shoulder impingement? participants will be devided into two groups to be compared: The first group will be given a rehabilitation program consisting of strengthening exercises (for scapular stabilizers and rotator cuff) and stretching exercises (for pectoralis major, pectoralis minor, latissimus dorsi, levator scapula) The second group will be given the same exercises in addition to lower limb kinetic chain exercise

Shoulder problems causing pain and decreased function are very common. Many of these problems are related to the rotator cuff tendons. Shoulder arthroscopy surgery (keyhole surgery) is a common treatment for this pain. This can involve an Arthroscopic Subacromial Decompression (ASAD) an operation used to remove bony spurs which may be the cause of the pain. This procedure is widely used despite limited evidence of any effectiveness. This is a randomised controlled trial that will compare ASAD against an investigational shoulder arthroscopy (without spur removal/decompression) to indicate whether spur removal is really necessary and in turn, assessing the effectiveness of the ASAD procedure. Both surgical interventions are routine and will mirror each other except for the spur removal element. Both treatments will be compared against a control (non operative management with specialist reassessment) group to indicate whether surgery in general is effective for patients with subacromial pain. Patients randomised to either of the surgical options will be blinded to the type of surgery they have. This is a multicentre trial taking place in 10 centres in England and Wales. Two satellite studies will also take place. One will involve a subset of patients undergoing MRI scans to examine the effects of their shoulder pain on their brain transmissions. The other will involve collecting tissue samples from patients undergoing surgery.

NCT05892250
Subacromial pain syndrome is one of the most common musculoskeletal health conditions, causing decreased of range of motion, loss of muscle strength and disability in the shoulder region. It has been proposed that dynamic humeral centering exercises could contribute to overcome these disorders, through the modification of the dimensions of the subacromial space, however, there is no consensus on its effectiveness nor direct variables that account for its efficacy. Therefore, the aim of this research is to determine the effects of a dynamic humeral centering exercise program on the functionality and disability of patients with subacromial pain syndrome.The effects of the dynamic humeral head exercises program, as well as the objective description of factors and variables associated with subacromial pain syndrome, will also allow rehabilitation science professionals to aim their interventions according to the knowledge of direct variables, which will allow objective follow-up of interventions on subacromial pain syndrome diagnosed patients.

Shoulder impingement syndrome is a very common cause of shoulder pain and normally treated with physiotherapy or surgery. Research has shown that physiotherapy is as effective as surgery, however, the incidence of surgery for this condition is on the rise internationally, nationally and locally. The most effective form of physiotherapy, however, is not known. Laboratory studies have suggested that posterior shoulder tightness may contribute to irritation of the soft tissue around the shoulder joint and perpetuate pain from shoulder impingement syndrome. There is a lack of good quality evidence to support this perspective. The aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of conducting a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment for posterior shoulder tightness in combination with 'best care' compared with 'best care' alone in individuals with shoulder impingement syndrome. The study will be a randomised, controlled, double blind (patient and assessor), parallel group, feasibility study with 1:1 allocation ratio. Patients awaiting surgery will be assessed for inclusion/exclusion criteria and then randomly allocated into one of two groups. 60 patients will be assigned to receive 'best care' physiotherapy, with or without treatment for posterior shoulder tightness. Physiotherapy treatment will be delivered over 13-15 weeks and outcomes will be assessed at 0, 6-8, 13-15, 26 and 52 weeks. The results will help us to understand if this is an important part of physiotherapy treatment, which might help reduce patient's pain and disability as well as reduce the cost of treatment for the National Health Service.

Shoulder pain is the most common musculoskeletal problem after low back and neck pain. Subacromial impingement syndrome is one of the most common diseases that causes shoulder pain. Many methods are used to reduce pain and accelerate functional rehabilitation in patients with shoulder pain. Transcutaneous pulse radiofrequency therapy (TCPRF) is a needle-free, painless, and outpatient physical therapy modality that can be used to treat shoulder impingement syndrome. Acromio-humeral distance and supraspinatus tendon thickness measurements with ultrasound are reliable and effective methods to diagnose subacromial impingement syndrome. Although there are previous studies investigating the effectiveness of TCPRF treatment in patients with shoulder pain, there are no studies evaluating the effectiveness of treatment with ultrasound examination. In this study, the investigators aimed to show the effect of TCPRF treatment on pain, range of motion, functional status and ultrasound findings in subacromial impingement syndrome.
NCT04014491
Shoulder impingement syndrome is the most common shoulder disorder in overhead athletes. It describes a mechanical compression of subacromial bursa and rotator cuff tendons during arm movement, which results in pain and injuries. Most of previous studies focus on investigating motor performance in individuals with shoulder impingement syndrome and found altered scapular kinematics and muscle activation may contribute to the impingement. Recently few studies found changes in the central nervous system, decreases in corticospinal excitability and increases in inhibition in scapular muscles, by using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Although more studies are still needed to investigate the changes in central nervous system in the individuals with impingement syndrome, the changes in central nervous system are believed to be associated with the deficits of impingement syndrome. However, the exercise protocols for the impingement syndrome are usually designed to restore scapular kinematics and muscle activation, including scapular muscle strengthening exercise and scapular control exercise. To our knowledge, no study has investigated whether these exercise protocols can reverse these changes in the corticospinal system. The objectives of this proposal are to understand neuromuscular and neurophysiological mechanisms of the scapula-focused exercise protocols to improve the effectiveness of treatment. The study aims to investigate the effects of scapular muscle strengthening training and scapular control training on the scapular kinematics, muscle activation and corticospinal system. The study also aims to investigate whether any other cortical mechanisms are also affected by the shoulder impingement syndrome. We will recruit 70 overhead athletes with shoulder impingement syndrome and 22 healthy control athletes. Subjects with shoulder impingement syndrome will randomly receive either scapular muscle strengthening or scapular control training. When performing the exercise, subjects in the scapular control training group will receive electromyography feedback and cues but those in the strengthening training group will not. Immediate effects of these two training protocols on scapular kinematics, muscle activation, and neurophysiological measures will be tested before and after the training. Neurophysiological measures will be tested by TMS, including corticospinal excitability, cortical inhibition, intracortical inhibition, and intracortical facilitation.
