Shoulder impingement syndrome

This study is testing a new device called PropArm-PosiMoF (PropArm) that aims to measure proprioception—your sense of where your arm is and how much force it uses—in the upper limbs. Researchers will first check how reliable and accurate the device is in healthy young adults, the…

This trial tests whether adding thoracic spine manipulation and instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization to standard physical therapy helps people with shoulder impingement syndrome. Participants, aged 18 to 55, will receive either conventional therapy alone or conventional t…

This study looks at whether core stability training can improve shoulder function in manual workers with shoulder impingement syndrome. Forty participants will either do core exercises or standard physical therapy. The goal is to see if strengthening the core reduces shoulder dis…

This study will compare two exercises—prone row and lateral pull down—in 54 adults aged 40-65 with shoulder impingement and scapular dyskinesia. The goal is to see which exercise better reduces pain, improves strength in key shoulder muscles, and enhances function. Participants w…

This study compares two common therapies—kinesio taping and dry needling—for treating subacromial pain syndrome, a frequent cause of shoulder pain. Researchers will enroll 100 adults aged 18-65 with shoulder pain lasting over 6 weeks. The goal is to see which approach, or a combi…

This study looks at how often nociplastic pain, a type of pain caused by altered nerve processing rather than tissue damage, occurs in people with subacromial pain syndrome (SAPS). Researchers will examine 400 adults aged 18 to 70 with shoulder pain lasting at least 3 months. Par…

This study follows 134 adults with subacromial pain syndrome, a common cause of shoulder pain. All receive a routine corticosteroid injection into the shoulder as part of usual care. Researchers test whether people with a nociplastic pain phenotype, a type of pain processing that…
