Shoulder impingement syndrome

This study aimed to see if adding a mild electrical current to the brain (transcranial stimulation) during shoulder strengthening exercises helps people with subacromial pain syndrome more than exercise alone. Participants would have done 8 weeks of shoulder exercises while weari…

This study tests whether giving people with rotator cuff shoulder pain regular updates on their progress (like pain scores and strength) helps them recover better. 56 adults aged 18–35 will either get standard rehab or standard rehab plus these progress updates. The goal is to se…

This study tests whether releasing a tight pectoralis minor muscle (a chest muscle) can improve shoulder function and reduce pain in people with shoulder impingement syndrome. Sixty adults aged 40–60 with chronic shoulder pain will receive either standard physical therapy alone o…

This study tests whether adding a specific breathing technique (abdominal drawing-in) and cross-pattern limb exercises to standard physical therapy can reduce pain and improve movement in people with shoulder impingement syndrome. 38 adults aged 30-50 with shoulder pain will be s…

This study aimed to test a new exercise program for people with shoulder impingement syndrome, a common cause of shoulder pain. The program involved progressive resistance exercises over 14 weeks. However, the trial was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no data or c…

This study compares two ways to help people with shoulder pain activate important muscles: using real-time ultrasound images versus standard verbal or visual feedback. About 26 adults with shoulder pain will do exercises in a lab, and researchers will measure muscle activity and …

This study looks at whether strengthening the latissimus dorsi muscle can improve shoulder space, reduce pain, and boost function in people with rotator cuff tendinopathy. 47 adults aged 18-50 with ongoing shoulder pain will be split into three groups: rotator cuff exercises only…

This study looked at whether having more frequent contact with a clinician (at least once a week) improves satisfaction for people with long-lasting musculoskeletal conditions. Participants were split into two groups: one with standard contact and one with extra check-ins via tex…

This study tests whether a Norwegian clinic (NSAC) helps people with common mental health issues or muscle pain return to work sooner. 2500 adults are split into three groups: one gets treatment quickly, one waits 10-14 weeks, and one gets a basic check-up. Researchers will track…

This study is tracking 120 people who received a HYPE SCS hip stem during total hip replacement. Researchers will monitor how long the implant lasts, how satisfied patients are, and any complications over 5 years. The goal is to confirm the device is safe and works as intended in…

This study looks at whether being male or female affects pain, daily function, and movement accuracy in people with subacromial shoulder pain. Researchers will measure pain levels, disability, and how well patients can sense their shoulder position. The goal is to better understa…

This study looks back at the medical records of about 4 million people who had physical or occupational therapy for muscle and joint problems. Researchers want to see if different ways of giving therapy lead to different results. No new treatments are tested—the goal is to learn …

This study aimed to see if a mobile monitoring tool could accurately identify surgical site infections (SSIs) in orthopedic surgery patients, compared to the usual manual review. The study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available. It was design…

This study follows 75 manual wheelchair users with spinal cord injuries over 3 to 5 years to see when and why shoulder problems start. Researchers use yearly MRIs and motion tracking to link daily activities to shoulder damage. The goal is to find ways to prevent shoulder pain an…
