What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Subluxation degree by physical examination

    A clinician measured the gap between the acromion and the humeral head with the fingerbreadth at the distal interphalangeal joint of the right index and middle fingers

    Measured: 0-3weeks

  2. Subluxation degree by radiograph

    The anterio-posterior shoulder X-ray was taken in an erect position, and subluxation was evaluated by Van Langenberghe's five point classification.

    Measured: 0-3weeks

  3. physical examination

    Passive range of motion (Flexion and Abduction)

    Measured: 0-3weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Evaluation of the pain of the shoulder

    Pain with motion was measured by a verbal descriptive pain scale. The VDPS was developed by Melzack and Katz and is composed of words such as "mild" (level 1) to "very severe pain" (level 5)

    Measured: 0-3weeks

  2. Evaluation of Daily life activities

    Daily life activities were evaluated using the Katz index of independence in activities of daily living, which evaluates the patients in bathing, dressing, toileting, transferring, continence, and eating. Activities were scored as zero or one with the total score ranging from zero to six. Higher scores are related with higher independency.

    Measured: 0-3weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing kinesiotape in people with Stroke and Subluxation, Glenohumeral, run by Ankara Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Education and Research Hospital.

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 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Subluxation degree by physical examination (time frame: 0-3weeks). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Jul 2020.
