Conditions

subacromial pain syndrome

Interventions

Initially, a blind evaluator will interview patients in order to obtain self-reported variables, such as the SPADI-Br questionnaire, numerical pain scale, Tampa kinesiophobia scale and global percepti

Eligibility

18 Years to 60 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Participants will be recruited through access to regulation guides for the orthopedics sector in partnership with the Municipal Health Secretariat of the city of Ribeirão Preto. Thereafter, the screening of patients will be performed at the Centro de Saúde Escola, Cuiabá, in which patients will be included in the study if they meet the following criteria: pain during active arm elevation movement (“painful arch”), positivity in the tests specific orthopedic: Neer and / or Hawkins-Kennedy, Jobe and / or pain test during resisted lateral rotation (MICHENER et al. 2009) and minimum amplitude of 120 ° of elevation.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Participants will be excluded if they have previous history of shoulder surgery or injuries caused by external forces, full tear of rotator cuff muscles evidenced by imaging, participants involved in overhead sports (such as swimming, volleyball), shoulder instability, adhesive capsulitis, severe cardiovascular and neurological diseases, carpal tunnel, pregnant women (Dilek et al., 2016).

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary outcome will be the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) questionnaire consisting of 13 items divided into the subscales of pain (5 items) and disability (8 items), in which a higher score indicates worse shoulder function (Martins et al., 2010). A difference between groups of 13.2 points without SPADI and a standard deviation of 16 SPADI points is expected (Santello et al., 2020). The level of significance was set at 0.05 and power at 90%.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The secondary outcome will be kinesthesia, a sense of passive and active joint positioning (proprioception assessment) and shoulder strength (internal and external rotation) measured using an isokinetic dynamometer, pain intensity measured with a numerical pain scale (NPRS, 0- In addition, we will also apply a TAMPA scale (FS et al., 2008), the Pain Catastrophization Scale (Sehn et al., 2012) and the Chronic Pain Self-Efficacy Scale, Likert Scale patient. All of these variables will be measured at the beginning and after the 8-week training programs. The global effect of perceived change will be measured by the Global Perceived Effect Scale (-5 to +5) (Costa et al., 2008). It is expected to find a difference between the groups in all these variables considering the level of significance established at 0.05 and the power at 90%.
