What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Closed Kinetic Chain Upper Extremity Stability TestDiagnostic test
Each patient receive the same intervention, the CKCUEST. The CKCUEST is a functional test which assess shoulder's stability. Patient is in push-up position, with 91 cm between his hands. His body is straight and his foots are squeeze. patient has to touch his hand with his other one and returns in the initial position. Then, patient repeats this movement with his other hand, etc, during 15 secondes. The CKCUEST score is the movement's number performed.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Closed Kinetic Chain Upper Extremity Stability Test (CKCUEST) score
Closed Kinetic Chain Upper Extremity Stability Test/ The CKCUEST is a functional test which assess shoulder's stability. Patient is in push-up position, with 91 cm between his hands. His body is straight and his foots are squeeze. patient has to touch his hand with his other one and returns in the initial position. Then, patient repeats this movement with his other hand, etc, during 15 secondes. The CKCUEST score is the movement's number performed. The outcome measure will be the mean of the three test realisation.
Measured: Day 1
Secondary outcomes (1)
Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ)
Global Physical Activity Questionnaire. It is a standardized questionnaire which evaluate the global physical activity. GPAQ takes into account both number and intensity of activity. There are 4 parts (profession activities,day to day ways of moving, hobbies, sedentarity) in total being 16 questions.
Measured: Day 1

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Closed Kinetic Chain Upper Extremity Stability Test in people with Shoulder Pain, run by University Hospital, Brest at 1 site in France.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Closed Kinetic Chain Upper Extremity Stability Test (CKCUEST) score (time frame: Day 1). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04090632, which also lists 1 linked publication.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
