Brief Summary

This study aimed to determine the psychosocial effects of exercise training in patients with rotator cuff tears.

Conditions

Rotator Cuff Tears; Pain, Shoulder; Psychological

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Constant-Murley Score

  The functional level will be assessed by the Constant Murley Score, which is a 100-point scale consisting of 15 points for pain, 20 points for daily activities, 40 points for pain-free range of motion, and 25 points for strength. High scores are positively correlated with the increased functional level. While pain and activities of daily living are evaluated by the patient, range of motion and strength are evaluated by the clinician.

Supervised exercise group

EXPERIMENTAL

The group received the supervised exercise program

Other: Supervised exercise program

Home exercise group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The group received the home exercise program

Diagnostic Test: Home exercise program

Interventions

Supervised exercise program OTHER

A structured program consisting of range of motion, postural control, scapulothoracic strengthening, glenohumeral strengthening and dynamic stabilization exercises used in conservative treatment of rotator cuff tears will be performed for 8 weeks. Patients will do the exercises under control of the physiotherapist in the clinic.

Supervised exercise group

Home exercise program DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

A structured program consisting of range of motion, postural control, scapulothoracic strengthening, glenohumeral strengthening and dynamic stabilization exercises used in conservative treatment of rotator cuff tears will be performed for 8 weeks. Patients will do the exercises at home. Patients will visit the clinic every 2 weeks and progression of exercise program will be made.
