Brief Summary

The aim of this research is to compare the effect of modified cross body stretch and modified sleeper stretch on pain, range of motion, disability and throwing ability in athletes with posterior capsule tightness. Randomized controlled trials done at International Islamic University. The sample size was 32. The subjects were divided in two groups, 16 subjects in modified cross body stretch group and 16 in modified sleeper stretch group. Study duration was of 6 months. Sampling technique applied was non probability connivance sampling technique. Tools used in the study are PENN shoulder score, gonoiometer, thumb up back(TUB) and seated basketball throw test(SBBT). Data was be analyzed through SPSS 21.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • PENN shoulder score

    The disability of shoulder conditions was measured by Penn score. Which consists of 3 categories i.e.; pain, satisfaction and functional ability. Pain consists of 3 questionnaires that consists of 10 scores each (total 30) and then satisfaction, it consists of 1 questionnaire consists of 10 scores, functional ability consists of 20 questionnaires with 10 scores each for the questionnaire (total 60)

    4th week

  • Seated basketball throw

    SBBT (seated basketball throws) was used to test the explosiveness of the upper extremity.

    4th week

  • Thumb up back(TUB)

    (Thumb-up-the back- measurement) was used to measure the ability to actively move thumb up the back with the help of inch tape.

    4th week

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Shoulder ROM (flexion)

    4th week

  • Shoulder ROM Extension

    4th week

  • Shoulder ROM abduction

    4th week

  • Shoulder ROM adduction

Interventions

Athlete was in side lying positioned. trunk was moved posteriorly 200 to 300 and shoulder is raised to 900 and semi flex both knees. Athlete was ask to passively pull the humerus across the body into horizontal adduction with the opposite hand. 5 reps once daily 3 sets for 4 weeks was given

Modified cross body stretch

Athlete was in side lying positioned on the involved side, trunk was rolled posteriorly 200 to 300 and shoulder is raised to 900 and elbow is flexed to 900 and semiflex both knees. athlete was ask to perform internal rotation passively by using the opposite arm. 5 reps once daily 3 sets for 4 weeks was given

Modified sleeper stretch
