Brief Summary

this study aims to assess the gluteus maximus muscle electromyographic activity and the latissimus dorsi muscle electromyographic activity in patients with shoulder impingement syndrome , to improve the assessment procedure and the rehabilitation program for treating patients with shoulder impingement syndrome more effectively. .

Conditions

Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• • electromyographic activity of posterior oblique sling muscles (gluteus maximus and latissimus dorsi)

  EMG has been widely used for many decades, its use is proven and widely accepted by clinicians and the scientific community and it is considered the gold standard method for the measurement of muscle activity.

  through study completion, an average of 4 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• shoulder active range of motion

  through study completion, an average of 4 months

• shoulder function and disability level

  through study completion, an average of 4 months

• shoulder pain

  through study completion, an average of 4 months

You may not qualify if:

• Patients with Numbness or tingling of upper extremity.
• Patients with Shoulder fracture or previous shoulder surgery, and Acromioclavicular or shoulder dislocation.
• Patients with Any traumatic injury to the lower limb in the previous 6 months.
• Any spine surgery within the last 2 years.
• Patients with history of lower back pain in past 12 months .
• Patients with history of lower extremity dysfunctions in the past 12 months .
• Participants who had taken any drugs (e.g. statins and spasmed), which have effects on the skeletal muscles.
• Open wounds, rashes, psoriasis, skin irritations, or skin conditions of any kind in the region of electrode placement
• Participants with a Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥ 30
