简要总结
Forty-six female patients aged 35-55 years who were suffering from shoulder dysfunction following mastectomy surgeries participated in this study. The participants were recruited from the outpatient clinic of the Faculty of Physical Therapy, Cairo University, and were randomly assigned into two equal groups.
Group A: consisted of 23 patients who received sensorimotor training exercises in addition to a traditional physical therapy program which included shoulder range of motion exercises, capsular stretching exercises, scapular muscle strengthening exercises, shoulder Maitland mobilization, and scapular mobilization.
Group B: consisted of 23 patients who received only the traditional physical therapy program, which included shoulder range of motion exercises, capsular stretching exercises, scapular muscle strengthening exercises, shoulder Maitland mobilization, and scapular mobilization.
Both groups received treatment three sessions per week for a duration of eight weeks.

Sensorimotor training exercises:
Patients performed sensorimotor training exercises that included tracking a diagram fixed on the wall using a laser pointer, throwing and catching a medicine ball, performing upper-limb weight-bearing exercises on a Swiss ball, and executing wall exercises using a ball. The exercises were applied with a dosage of three sets of ten repetitions, with one minute of rest between sets, three times per week for eight weeks.

结局指标
主要结局
ShoulderJoint Position Sense
时间窗: 8 weeks
A digital inclinometer was used as a validated and reliable tool to assess joint position sense (JPS). It measured the participants' ability to accurately reproduce specific joint angles, providing objective data on proprioceptive accuracy.
