Brief Summary

The objective of this retrospective study was to look into the effects of core stabilization exercises applied in conjunction with classic physiotherapy program on pain, muscle strength, disability, and posture in SIS.

Conditions

Subacromial Impingement Syndrome

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• The Numerical Rating Scale (NPRS-11)

  The Numerical Rating Scale (NPRS-11) is an 11-point scale for self-report of pain. It is the most commonly used unidimensional pain scale. The respondent selects a whole number (integers 0-10) that best reflects the intensity (or other quality if requested of his/her pain.0 point is the minimum and 10 point is the maximum. The higher the score, the more severe the pain.

• New York Posture Rating Method to determine their postures

  The rating chart is used to assess 13 areas of the body, based on the assumption that posture is the alignment of the body and its segments. 13 regions (head, neck, shoulder, scapula, upper thoracic, waist, rips, abdomen, hips, knees, legs, feet and toes) are assessed in two different positions (lateral and posterior). A score is allocated to each area according to the position: 5 points to the correct position; 3 points for a slight deviation, and 1 point for a pronounced deviation. Total score is between 18-90 points. higher the points better the postural alignment

• Shoulder pain and disability index

  The Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) was developed to measure current shoulder pain and disability in an outpatient setting. The SPADI contains 13 items that assess two domains; a 5-item subscale that measures pain and an 8-item subscale that measures disability between 0 to 100, with a higher value indicating worse condition.

Secondary Outcomes (4)

• Shoulder mobility on the Shoulder Range of Motion

  Change from baseline range of motion at 6th week

• Core muscle strength test

  Change from baseline strenght score at 6th week

• Endurance of Core Muscles

  Change from baseline endurance score at 6th week

• Manual muscle test

  Change from baseline manual muscle testing score at 6th week

Study Arms (2)

classical physiotherapy program

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The group in classical physiotherapy program; n=25 (3 days per week for six weeks)

Other: classical physiotherapy program

core stabilization group

EXPERIMENTAL

The group in which core stabilization was also performed in addition to classical physiotherapy program; n=25 (3 days per week for 6 weeks)

Other: classical physiotherapy program; Other: Core Stabilization Exercises

Interventions

classical physiotherapy program OTHER

Classical physiotherapy program=Classical physiotherapy program included transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, infrared radiation for 15 min, continuous ultrasound for 5 min and home exercise program. For active assistive shoulder range of motion (ROM), home exercises included the Codman exercise, flexion exercise at the ladder, and the Wand exercise, as well as some strengthening and stretching exercises performed at the pain limit with 10 repetitions twice a day (six weeks)

classical physiotherapy program; core stabilization group

Core Stabilization Exercises OTHER

The interventions of the core exercise were applied when the patient lay on his/her back with his/her knees at flexion. The number of repeats for each exercise was five, and these exercises were done 3 times a week for 6 weeks with the same physiotherapist. The further steps in the exercises were extended according to the activation duration of the core muscles, and this extension was elongated 5 s
