简要总结
This research will use a randomized clinical trial (RCT) method to get military athletes with rotator cuff tendinopathy. People will be chosen at random to either get the GRASP method or normal exercises for making the shoulder muscles stronger. The main things the investigator will look at are how bad the pain is how well the shoulder works and if they can go back to work or sports. Tests will be done at the start, right after a treatment, and later times to measure the short-term and long-term advantages of the treatments. This study's careful way of doing things aims to provide strong information for military sports medicine. It helps doctors in treating shoulder problems like rotator cuff tendinopathy.
详细描述
The rationale for conducting this study lies in the critical need to address rotator cuff tendinopathy, a prevalent and debilitating issue among military athletes. The unique demands placed on military personnel, involving repetitive overhead tasks and rigorous training, contribute significantly to the higher incidence of rotator cuff problems. The impact of this condition on performance, readiness, and overall well-being in the military cannot be overstated.
In the end, the plan for this study wants to fix a gap in what we know right now about dealing with muscle problems in military sports players' shoulders. This study looks at the GRASP trial methods and compares them with standard rotator cuff exercises. It aims to improve treatments and help military staff be healthier and work better.

研究组 & 干预措施
Range of Motion Exercises
Will get standard shoulder muscle exercises, including rigid and stretchy ones with bands that offer resistance.
干预措施: Range of Motion Exercises (Other)
Strengthening exercises with theraband
They will go through the GRASP method, which involves special workouts just for them, teaching them about their health and ways to deal with pain.

结局指标
主要结局
Western Ontario Rotator Cuff Index (WORC)
时间窗: 5-6weeks
The Western Ontario Rotator Cuff Index (WORC) is a self-reported questionnaire that evaluates the quality of life in individuals with rotator cuff disorders across five domains: physical signs and symptoms, sports, work, manner of living, and feelings. It ranges from 0 to 2100, and the lower the total, the better the result.
Inclinometer
时间窗: 5-6weeks
The inclinometer calculates shoulder R.O.M. in degrees with high accuracy. These are flexion: 170-180° rotation, abduction: 170-180°, external rotation: 90°, and internal rotation: 70-90°.
Push-Up Plus Test
时间窗: 5-6weeks
The Push-Up Plus Test is designed to assess both scapular stability and serratus anterior muscle strength from the observed scapular movements during the 'plus' action in a push-up formation. They are either pass/fail scores or quantitative repet
