Summary

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of progressive resistance training of the biceps in shoulder rehabilitation in patients with subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS).

Method: a randomized controlled clinical trial, with analysis intention-to-treat, approved by the Ethics and Research (1019/08), containing sixty patients of both sexes, SIS, evaluated at the initial time (T0), with 45 days (T45) and 90 days of treatment (T90). We analyzed the pain at rest (VAS), range of shoulder movement, strength, function by The Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) and quality of life by Short Form-36 (SF-36) and Western Ontario Rotator Cuff Index (WORC). They recommended the use of NSAIDs and analgesics in the presence of pain exacerbated, every eight hours. Study groups will perform therapeutic exercises for the shoulder and scapula stabilizers. In the experimental group associate progressive resistance training of the biceps.

Conditions

  • Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

Interventions

OTHER

therapeutic exercises

therapeutic exercises for the shoulder and scapula stabilizers using bat without charge, training and isometric exercises commuting to the cuff muscles, without producing subacromial impaction.

OTHER

biceps resistance training and therapeutic exercises

The biceps resistance training based on calculations of maximum resistance (MR), being conduct in three series 10 reps with 50% of MR in the first series of training and 75% of MR in the second series, with 2 minutes between each and therapeutic exercises for the shoulder and scapula stabilizers.
