Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Subacromial Interval Measurementsix weeks

Subacromial interval measurement was performed via anterior-posterior shoulder radiography

Shoulder Pain and Disability Indextwo weeks

It consists of 13 questions in two sections as 5 pain questions and 8 disability questions. Both sections are scored with VAS. The total score range is between 0-130 and it is calculated with the percentage score. Pain and disability are inversely proportional with the percentage score

Visual Analogue Scaletwo weeks

to record pain intensity during rest and active shoulder movements. The patient is asked to mark the point corresponding to the pain (0 no pain and 10 maximal pain) on 10 cm horizontal line. The distance between the marked point and the beginning is recorded as a pain score

Active Range of Motion measurementtwo weeks

Conventional goniometer with 1° increments is used to determine shoulder limitations due to pain in patients
