Factors Influencing Outcome After Shoulder Arthroplasty (FINOSA Study): Protocol of a Prospective Longitudinal Study With Randomized Group Allocation

Factors Influencing Outcome After Shoulder Arthroplasty (FINOSA Study): Protocol of a Prospective Longitudinal Study With Randomized Group Allocation

Studies on (non) modifiable potential prognostic factors for outcome after shoulder arthroplasty are clearly needed [12,14]. Therefore, the objectives of this study are as follows: Primary objective: to investigate which potential prognostic factors predict baseline shoulder pain and function measured with Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) and the evolution of SPADI in the first 2 years following surgery, in patients with total shoulder arthroplasty.

Three-Dimensional Virtual Reconstructions of Shoulder Movements Using Computed Tomography Images: Model Development

Three-Dimensional Virtual Reconstructions of Shoulder Movements Using Computed Tomography Images: Model Development

The size and volume of each bone and muscle involved in shoulder movement were measured and used for image visualization and 3 D modeling. For the virtual reconstruction of shoulder movement, the Controller function was used to crudely model bone and muscle movement, and the Shapekey function was used to further adjust muscle contraction, relaxation, and rotation. The Unity engine (Unity Technologies, San Francisco, CA) was used to develop a real-time 3 D visualization application of shoulder movements.

Shoulder Rehabilitation Exercises With Kinematic Biofeedback After Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair: Protocol for a New Integrated Rehabilitation Program

Shoulder Rehabilitation Exercises With Kinematic Biofeedback After Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair: Protocol for a New Integrated Rehabilitation Program

Specifically, the team comprised three experts in shoulder surgery and specific experience in shoulder rotator cuff arthroscopy (687 cumulative cases per year), two in rehabilitation medicine, two in physical therapy, and three in biomedical and clinical engineering (two with a Ph D in shoulder biomechanics), each with more than 15 years of experience in the field.

Load-Induced Glenohumeral Translation After Rotator Cuff Tears: Protocol for an In Vivo Study

Load-Induced Glenohumeral Translation After Rotator Cuff Tears: Protocol for an In Vivo Study

Furthermore, altered shoulder biomechanics can lead to secondary damage and degeneration, such as tendinopathy or osteoarthritis [3]. The motion of a healthy shoulder mainly comprises rotation and very small to no translation due to stabilization through muscle forces. Glenohumeral stability is affected by the muscle cross-sectional area; the level of muscle activation; and the shoulder anatomy, including the critical shoulder angle and glenoid inclination [4-6].

Health-Enabling Technologies to Assist Patients With Musculoskeletal Shoulder Disorders When Exercising at Home: Scoping Review

Health-Enabling Technologies to Assist Patients With Musculoskeletal Shoulder Disorders When Exercising at Home: Scoping Review

This also applies to HETs that assist patients with musculoskeletal shoulder disorders in their home-based exercises and exercises outside of physiotherapy. Shoulder disorders are among the most frequently reported musculoskeletal problems and lead to considerable socioeconomic costs [8,9]. To maintain or improve the success of therapy, patients with musculoskeletal shoulder disorders usually perform exercises at home to complement their rehabilitation treatment (eg, physiotherapy) [10].

Internet and Telerehabilitation-Delivered Management of Rotator Cuff–Related Shoulder Pain (INTEL Trial): Randomized Controlled Pilot and Feasibility Trial

Internet and Telerehabilitation-Delivered Management of Rotator Cuff–Related Shoulder Pain (INTEL Trial): Randomized Controlled Pilot and Feasibility Trial

Rotator cuff–related shoulder pain (RCRSP) is a common and disabling musculoskeletal condition. The estimated point prevalence of shoulder pain among adults is between 15% and 27% [1], and RCRSP is regarded as the most common cause, accounting for 70% of cases [2]. RCRSP can severely limit work and daily functions, including dressing and personal care, and can lead to substantial societal burden through utilization of health care resources and work absenteeism [1,3].

Gamification in Rehabilitation of Patients With Musculoskeletal Diseases of the Shoulder: Scoping Review

Gamification in Rehabilitation of Patients With Musculoskeletal Diseases of the Shoulder: Scoping Review

Thereby, chronic shoulder pain belongs to the most common forms of musculoskeletal diseases, which lead to high socioeconomic costs [2]. The most common causes for chronic shoulder pain are shoulder lesions, for example frozen shoulder (6%), osteoarthritis (5%-10%) and rotator cuff tears (10%) [3]. In addition to intense shoulder pain, affected persons also suffer from disabilities in shoulder mobility and functionality [4].

Wrist-Based Accelerometers and Visual Analog Scales as Outcome Measures for Shoulder Activity During Daily Living in Patients With Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy: Instrument Validation Study

Wrist-Based Accelerometers and Visual Analog Scales as Outcome Measures for Shoulder Activity During Daily Living in Patients With Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy: Instrument Validation Study

Shoulder pain is a frequent problem in adults of all ages [1]. A large proportion of shoulder pains is caused by rotator cuff tendinopathy [2,3], a chronic degenerative disease affecting rotator cuff tendons in the shoulder [4]. Patients with rotator cuff tendinopathy generally experience pain when performing activities of daily living [5].

Reliability of a Smartphone Compared With an Inertial Sensor to Measure Shoulder Mobility: Cross-Sectional Study

Reliability of a Smartphone Compared With an Inertial Sensor to Measure Shoulder Mobility: Cross-Sectional Study

The shoulder is one of the joints with the widest range of pathological variations, with tendonitis, bursitis, frozen shoulder, or rotator cuff involvement being some of the most common ones [1]. These pathologies cause functional alterations in the structure, which influence certain specific evaluations. Questionnaires have been developed that assess the sensitive function, pain, neuromuscular alteration, movement of structures, functionality, and mobility [2].

Challenges During Implementation of a Patient-Facing Mobile App for Surgical Rehabilitation: Feasibility Study

Challenges During Implementation of a Patient-Facing Mobile App for Surgical Rehabilitation: Feasibility Study

The shoulder joint is a ball-and-socket joint between the scapula (socket) and the humerus (ball). The rotator cuff is a group of four tendons that connect the muscles attached to the scapula to the humerus. The function of the rotator cuff is to rotate the ball in the socket and therefore, move the arm. Tears of the rotator cuff are a common cause of shoulder pain and upper limb weakness [5]. The tears of the rotator cuff commonly occur with upper limb injury or with age-related degeneration [6].
