Study Overview
Brief Summary
This study is a randomised control trial and the purpose of this study is to determine the additional effects of mobilization with movement with upper quadrant core strengthening in rotator cuff related pain
.
Detailed Description
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of mobilization with movement with upper quadrant core strengthening in rotator cuff related shoulder pain on A. Pain B. Range of motion C. Propioception D. Kinesiophobia
Data collection procedure: Participants of interest would be approached and explained about the research. Informed written consent will be taken. Recruited participants will be allocated to either of the groups through a sealed opaque envelope method.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Pain intensity
Time Frame: 4 weeks
Pain will be measured on Numerical Pain rating scale. The 11-point numeric scale ranges from '0' representing one pain extreme (e.g. "no pain") to '10' representing the other pain extreme (e.g. "pain as bad as you can imagine" or "worst pain imaginable").
Range of motion
Time Frame: 4 weeks
A universal goniometer will be used to measure the shoulder ROM in external \& internal rotation, abduction and flexion and their normal ranges are 90, 80, 0-180, 0-180 degree respectively.
Proprioception
Time Frame: 4 weeks
The laser pointer method for assessing Shoulder Joint Position Sense (JPS) involves the patient using a laser pointer to target a 1 meter distanced scoreboard while performing arm movements. Patient will be asked to perform flexion, abduction and external rotation to 90 degree or alternatively to maximum possible pain free range below 90 degree. After three practice rounds with eyes open, four attempt with eye closed will be performed and shoulder range will be measured. We will measure JPSE for flexion, abduction and external rotation by using mobile app inclinometer.
Kinesiophobia
Time Frame: 4 Weeks
The Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK) is a 17-item self-report tool with a 4-point Likert scale, measuring fear of movement due to injury or pain, and somatic focus on underlying medical issues. Scores range from 17 to 68, with higher scores (≥37) indicating significant kinesiophobia and poorer health outcomes.
Secondary Outcomes
No secondary outcomes reported
