- Brief Summary
To compare the effects of thrower's ten and routine physical therapy on pain, range of motion and functional disability in patients with shoulder impingement syndrome
- Detailed Description
Shoulder impingement is a common cause of shoulder pain. It's also known as impingement syndrome or swimmer's shoulder, since it's common in swimmers. It occurs when there is impingement of tendons or bursa in the shoulder from bones of the shoulder. A randomized clinical trial will be conducted at Ibne Sina Hospital,Multan . Non probability convenience sampling technique will be applied on 46 patients who will be allocated through computerized randomization into group A \& group B to collect data. Group A will be given Throwers ten Program and group B will be given routine physical therapy along with baselines. The study will be completed within the time duration of nine months. Primary Outcome measures of the research will be pain, range of motion,function and disability . Data will be analyzed using SPSS software version 25. After assessing normality of data by Shapiro-wilk test, it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be used within a group or between two groups.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Numeric Pain Rating Scale 6 weeks The Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) is used to assess pain. On an 11-point Numeric scale, 0 represents the least amount of pain (no pain) and 10 Represents the most amount of pain (worst pain)
Shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI) 6 weeks The SPADI (Shoulder Pain and impairment Index) was created to assess current shoulder pain and impairment in an outpatient environment. The SPADI consists of 13 items that assess two domains: a 5-item subscale for pain and an 8-item subscale for disability. The SPADI has since been used in both primary care on mixed diagnosis and surgical patient populations including rotator cuff disease, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis, adhesive capsulitis ,joint replacement surgery , and in a large population-based study of shoulder symptoms
Range of Motion 6 weeks It is frequently employed as a benchmark technique for the assessment of Range of Motion (ROM) as the main component of all joint motions. The range of mobility of a joint is measured using a device known as a goniometer. Goniometry is the art and science of measuring the joint ranges in every plane of the joint. Short arm and long arm versions of the universal goniometer are available. Goniometric measurements are highly reliable provided measurements are conducted by the same therapist. Shoulder Abduction, Flexion and External rotation range will be taken by a Universal Goniometer.
