NCT02773654 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 50

Last updated 2019-03-21

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the ability of a mobile clinical application to reliably and accurately track scapular motion in people with asymptomatic and symptomatic shoulders. The ability to accurately and reliably measure shoulder position clinically is an important first step in choosing the best treatment techniques to treat shoulder movement dysfunction. Therefore, the primary objectives of the study are:

1. To determine the inter- and intra-rater reliability of shoulder joint position measurements in symptomatic and asymptomatic subjects, by using a mobile application, with and without use of a handle for a smartphone
2. To determine the validity of the shoulder joint position measurements measurements as described above.

Conditions

  • Shoulder Pain

Interventions
