Brief Summary

The aim of the study to investigate the effectiveness KT application with different verbal inputs on pain, function and range of motion (ROM) on patient with rotator cuff tear.

Conditions

Rotator Cuff Tear

Keywords

shoulder pain; shoulder function

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Visual Analogue Scale

  Pain intensity was assessed using the VAS; each patient was asked the pain during the rest, activity, and at night (on a 0 -10 numerical pain rating scale with zero corresponding to no pain and 10 corresponding to terrible pain). The rest, night and pain in activity were assessed by VAS before, after 30 min and 24 hours after KT application

  The rest, night and pain in activity were assessed by VAS before and after 30 min, before and after 24 hours of KT application

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Shoulder range of motion

  ROM (range of motion) assessed by goniometer before and 24 hours of KT application.

• Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire

  Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) was evaluated before and 24 hours of KT application.

• American Shoulder and Elbow Surgery score (ASES)

  American Shoulder and Elbow Surgery score was evaluated before and 24 hours of KT application.

Study Arms (3)

Group 1

EXPERIMENTAL

it has been limited evidence of KT is effective

Other: Negative Verbal Input

Group 2

EXPERIMENTAL

it has been not known that KT is effective or not

Other: Neutral Verbal Input

Group 3

EXPERIMENTAL

it has been known that KT has excellent result

Other: Positive Verbal Input

Interventions

Negative Verbal Input OTHER

The treatment group received a standardized therapeutic KT application. The physical therapist said that it has been limited evidence of KT is effective during application.

Group 1

Neutral Verbal Input OTHER

The treatment group received a standardized therapeutic KT application. The physical therapist said that it has been not known that KT is effective or not during application.

Group 2

Positive Verbal Input OTHER

The treatment group received a standardized therapeutic KT application. The physical therapist said that it has been known that KT has excellent result during application.

Group 3
