简要总结
The purpose of the study is to compare the elasticity of thoracolumbar fascia in patients with and without subacromial impingement syndrome.
30 patients diagnosed as subacromial impingement syndrome in physical medicine and rehabilitation department of Baskent University will be recruited as group 1. 30 healthy volunteers will be recruited as group 2. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) with the aim of assessing pain severity, tape measurement for posterior capsule shortness; body lateral flexion, rotation and extensor movements and lumbar extensor shortness will be observed for correlation with thoracalumbal fascia flexibility. Lateral flexion, flexion, and extension movements will be measured using goniometry for trunk normal joint movements. The thoracolumbar fascia length test and Modify Schober test will be used for thoracolumbar fascia length.

结局指标
主要结局
thoracolumbar fascia length test
时间窗: 1 week
thoracolumbar fascia length
次要结局
- Visual Analogue Scale measurement in cm with 0 pointing no pain and 10 pointing worst pain. patient marks the intensity of his/her pain in a 10 cm line and researcher measures the intensity of the pain with a tape.(1 week)
- Shortness measurement with tape measurement in cm. patient stretches the posterior capsule and the beginning and the end positions are measured with tape.(1 week)
- lumbar extensor shortness test measurement in cm(1 week)
- Goniometric measurement(1 week)
