Brief Summary

Comparative study to compare the effect of radial shockwave versus ultrasound phonophoresis in management of chronic supraspinatus tendinitis consists of 3 groups exp1(shockwave treatment + conventional physical therapy) , exp2( ultrasound phonophoresis+ conventional physical therapy) and control group ( conventional physical therapy)

Conditions

Supraspinatus Tendinitis

Keywords

Shockwave , phonophoresis , supraspinatus tendinitis

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• change in the thickness of supraspinatus tendon

  Ultrasonography

  before start of treatment and 4 weeks following end of treatment

• change in pain intesity

  VAS ( visual analog scale score)

  before start of treatment and 4 weeks following end of treatment , score from 0-10 ,0=no pain , 10= unbearable pain

• Change in shoulder range of motion

  electro goniometer

  before start of treatment and 4 weeks following end of treatment

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Function of the Upper Limb

  before start of treatment and 4 weeks following end of treatment, it measure the disability/symptom section (11 items, scored 1-5)

• measure weight in kg and height in cm

  before starting the assessment

Study Arms (3)

Experimental group 1

EXPERIMENTAL

23 subjects will Receive radial shockwave by ( Storz Medical /SN:BS.3517 ) for 3 sessions one session per week for four consecutive weeks and conventional physical therapy

Other: Electro Therapy

Experimental group 2

EXPERIMENTAL

23 subjects will receive Ultrasound phonophoresis using diclofenac Na+( voltaren) by ( Sonopuls 490 / SN : 36 602 ) for 12 session, 3 sessions per week and same conventional physical therapy

Other: Electro Therapy

Control group

OTHER

23 subjects will receive conventional physical therapy modalities in the for 3 sessions per week for 4 weeks in form of Stretching Exercise in form of exercise of posterior shoulder capsule, strengthening exercises all have been recommended as essential for any shoulder rehabilitation program. These exercise include shoulder flexion, scaption. ,Tens applied for 20 minutes per session using (Enraf Nonius (Endomed 482) SN : 36853 )

Other: Electro Therapy

Interventions

Electro Therapy OTHER

radial shockwave 3 sessions one session per week for four consecutive weeks ,receive Ultrasound phonophoresis using diclofenac Na+ 12 session, 3 sessions per week and conventional physical therapy modalities in the form of 3 sessions every week for 8 weeks

Control group; Experimental group 1; Experimental group 2
