Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Disability6 weeks

Disability was evaluated with Patient-Specific Functional Scale.Patients nominate 3 to 5 activities that they are unable to do or having difficulty doing because of their injury or problem. These activities are rated on an 11-point scale, where 0 is unable to perform the activity and 10 is able to perform the activity at preinjury level.

Activity Limitation6 weeks

Activity limitation was evaluated with The Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand. Scale score ranges from 0 (no disability) to 100 (most severe disability).

Functional Disorder6 weeks

Disability was evaluated with Upper-Extremity Functional Index.Twenty prescribed upper extremity activities are rated by patients according to a 5-point scale, where 0 is extreme difficulty or unable to perform the activity, and 4 is no difficulty. Higher scores mean better outcome scores.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Pain Intensity6 weeks

Pain was evaluated with Numeric Pain Rating Scale. It requires the patient to rate their pain on a defined scale. 0-10 where 0 is no pain and 10 is the worst pain imaginable.

Range of Motion6 weeks

Shoulder range of motion was evaluated with universal goniometer
