Summary

Shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS) is responsible for 44% to 60% of medical consultations related to shoulder pain with an approximate prevalence of 70-200 per 1000 adults, which implies a remarkable use of health care resources. The cost for society is high and patients with shoulder disorders account for 20% of all disability due to musculoskeletal disorder. The underlying mechanisms are thought to include inflammation, degeneration of the tendons or bursa, dysfunctional scapulothoracic and glenohumeral mechanics, debilitated scapular musculature, joint capsule irregularities, postural abnormalities of the neck and shoulder, and morphological abnormalities of the relevant skeletal elements. There is a need for well-designed structured exercise program in detail considering content, dosage and progression to guide treatment for patients with sub acromial pain.

The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a structured exercise protocol and to assess its effectiveness in patients with sub-acromial impingement syndrome. Through the extensive literature review, the exercise program would be proposed. In Phase 1, We will develop and validate a structured exercise programs for sub acromial impingement syndrome using an expert consensus Delphi-based survey technique. In phase 2, a randomized controlled trial will be conducted. Group A (Experimental Group) will receive newly structured exercises for twelve weeks and Group B (control group) will receive conventional exercise program for 12 weeks. Evaluation of the participant will be done at the baseline using Constant Murley Score, shoulder pain and disability Index (SPADI). Shoulder range of motion, shoulder muscles extensibility will be assessed and scapulothoracic ratio will be calculated and documented. T-FAST test will be conducted to score the patients functional performance.

Assessment will be done at baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 weeks in both the groups. At the end of the study the data will be collected, coded and tabulated using descriptive and inferential statistics.

Conditions

  • Subacromial Impingement Syndrome

Interventions

OTHER

Structured exercise program

This intervention will be based on shoulder kinetic control, load modification exercises and lumbopelvic stabilization with core stability exercises which is not a part of conventional exercise program for shoulder impingement syndrome patients.

OTHER

Conventional Exercise Program

Conventional exercise program for shoulder impingement syndrome patients
