Active, not recruiting

• Conditions: Impingement Shoulder; Impingement Syndrome; Pain, Shoulder

• Registration Number: NCT06665139
• Lead Sponsor: Istanbul Physical Medicine Rehabilitation Training and Research Hospital

Brief Summary

Pain intensity will be measured with visual analog scale. Sonographic severity grade of shoulder impingement syndrome, serratus anterior muscle, upper trapezius and middle trapezius will be measured with USG in patients diagnosed with impingement and meeting the criteria and healthy volunteers.

Detailed Description

Patients diagnosed with impingement and meeting the criteria will be included, while the healthy group will consist of hospital staff who do not have shoulder pain and who are not diagnosed with a shoulder-related disease. Pain intensity will be measured with VAS (visual analog scale), the sonographic severity grade of shoulder impingement syndrome, the serratus anterior muscle, the upper trapezius and the middle trapezius will be measured with USG.
