Effect of Postural Correction with Different Taping Materials on Scapular Kinematics and Myoelectric Activities of Scapular Rotators in Subacromial Impingement Syndrome a Randomized Placebo-Controlled Trial

Scapular kinematics and subacromial-impingement syndrome: a meta-analysis.

CONTEXT The literature does not present a consistent pattern of altered scapular kinematics in patients with shoulder-impingement syndrome (SIS). OBJECTIVES To perform meta-analyses of published comparative studies to determine the consistent differences in scapular kinematics between subjects with SIS and controls. In addition, the purpose was to analyze factors of the data-collection method...

Neuromuscular function in patients with Subacromial Impingement Syndrome and clinical assessment of scapular kinematics

Taping patients with clinical signs of subacromial impingement syndrome: the design of a randomized controlled trial

BACKGROUND Shoulder problems are a common complaint of the musculoskeletal system. Physical therapists treat these patients with different modalities such as exercise, massage, and shoulder taping. Although different techniques have been described, the effectiveness of taping has not yet been established. The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of usual physi...

The effects of scapular stabilization based exercise therapy on pain, posture, flexibility and shoulder mobility in patients with shoulder impingement syndrome: a controlled randomized clinical trial

  Background :Dysfunction in the kinetic chain caused by poor scapula stabilization can contribute to shoulder injuries and Shoulder Impingement Syndrome (SIS). The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of two treatment approaches scapular stabilization based exercise therapy and physical therapy in patients with SIS.   Methods : The study is a randomized clinical trial in whic...

Effect of eight weeks of scapular-focused exercise with and without feedback on pain, function, and scapular kinematic in a participant with shoulder impingement syndrome

Background and Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of scapular-focused treatment with (SFTF) and without (SFT) feedback on pain, function, and scapular kinematics in patients with Shoulder Impingement Syndrome (SIS). Materials and Methods: 36 males and females with SIS (age of 37 ± 6.3 years) were randomly assigned into SFTF (n=12), SFT (n=12) and control (n=12) groups. The primary o...
