- Abstract
Purpose: Although exercise training are common part of the shoulder rehabilitation programs, the scientific rationale and long-term results for the inclusion of specific progrressive exercises is less clear. This study aims to investigate the effects of a 12-week progressive stretching and strengthening exercise training on disability, and pain status in patients with rotator cuff related shoulder pain. Methods: Twenty participants with shoulder pain lasted at least 6 weeks or more (32.6±7.4 years old, symptoms duration 5.3±4.8 months) were included. The supervised 12-week exercise program was performed. We evaluated self-reported shoulder pain severity by using visual analogue scale and disability status by using Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) at baseline, after 6-week, 12-week training and at one-year-follow-up. Results: Comparisons showed that there was significantly less pain severity on activity and at night, and less SPADI pain and disability score reported starting from six-week after baseline and at 12-week and one-year-follow-up (p<0.05). Conclusion: The findings of the study showed that pain severity and disability gains can be achieved with 6-week progressive exercise training for participants with rotator cuff related shoulder pain. However, high exercise compliance up to 12 weeks further supports the positive gains up to one year. Therefore, progressive stretching and strengthening training should be recommended to apply starting from early shoulder rehabilitation program.
