NCT04705311 | Completed

Brief Summary

During the rehabilitation process after rotator cuff repair surgery, patients suffer from increased pain and discomfort due to dysfunction. Pain neuroscience education, a more modern educational method, has been reported to be effective in controlling pain by reducing the fear of movement based on an understanding of neurophysiology.

Conditions

Rotator Cuff Injuries; Kinesiophobia; Pain, Postoperative

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Pain intensity

  A numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) consisting of 11 points in total from 0 points (no pain) to 10 points (the most severe pain imaginable) is used. The lower the score, the less the pain.

  Change in pain intensity from baseline to weeks 2, 4, and 6

Behavioral: Rotator cuff repair rehabilitation

Interventions

Pain neuroscience education OTHER

Neurophysiological education of pain allows patients to explore a wider contribution to pain through the knowledge that pain is often an unreliable indicator of the extent or extent of tissue damage. This aims at reconceptualization from biomedical or structural models to actual biological psychosocial pain models.
